1. Exercise 6 days/week.
2. Work on one thing at a time (no more multi-tasking). This includes not doing something else while talking to somebody.
3. Plan out when to do work the day it's assigned, and don't leave it to the last minute.
4. Meditate daily.
5. Minimize distractions. That is, no reddit, less Facebook, Twitter, and HN.
I guess those are more goals than plans, but same idea.
Edit to add: get into shape to run a marathon in late 2015 or early 2016. I ran one last year, but I've lost most of my progress this year.
- collyw 12y agoIf your location permits it, I would really recommend cycling to work. That is a really easy way to get daily exercise in. (Plus its a very efficient way of getting around some cities, if you don't mind bending the rules). I should try your list as they are all things I feel I ought to do more of (or less of in the case of 2 and 5).
- matteotom 12y agoAs a college student, that wouldn't help too much, as it's at most a 15 minute walk walk to class. And shipping my bike across the country would probably be more expensive than a good pair of running shoes.
- ZenoArrow 12y agoSome admirable goals, I especially like number 2. Just a small thing, from what I understand exercising 6 days a week might not be optimal, your body rebuilds in rest times so there's a risk that you'll slow down your improvements in health by doing more than 4 days a week. I suppose you could alternate the parts of the body you work on? Anyway, I'm not an expert, just thought I'd pass on what I'd heard.
