Re-arrange it

Hey, guys! It has been quite some time since my last post, been busy with work stuff, traveling a bit (discovered magnificent Barcelona), and doing some other things. But, today during my morning routine I caught an idea, that I would like to share with you.

In 21-century people have too many things they should/have/need to do, this is how it goes if you want to succeed in work, sports, personal development, and other spheres. So, you prepare a list of things you have to do every day and I bet this list is pretty big, take a look at mine (older version), for example:

• Morning stretch
• Airing out the room
• Preparing a breakfast
• Drinking coffee
• Spanish/Georgian lessons
• Reading
• Studies (CXL course at this point)
• Jogging/Gym
• Meditation
• Work (which includes around 10 tasks of different types)
• Have a late lunch
• Write a blog post
• Journaling
• Practice DJing
• Sleep mode for all the gadgets after 9 pm

Some of my friends think that I am Superman (I know there are people that do 10x more than me, no need to remind about that) with this schedule, but sometimes I am not able to cover even 60% of what is written in my plan, because I get distracted, as everyone does. Scrolling reels for 30 minutes, watching Twitch streams, and other useless activities sometimes disrupt my daily schedule.

Recently I have discovered an interesting approach to planning out my day, by combining different productivity techniques, you can take a look at the updated version, maybe it will work for you, as well:

• Morning routine - 10 min stretch, air out the room, prepare a breakfast, drink coffee
• Spanish/Georgian lessons/Reading/CXL Courses (depending on a weekday)
• Jogging/Gym
• Meditation
• Work
• Lat lunch
• Procrastination (not more than 30-60 min during the day)
• Write a blog post/Journaling/Practice DJing (depending on a weekday)
• Sleep mode for all  gadgets after 9 pm

So what are the main changes:

• Consolidating all the morning activities into one line and making them time-framed makes it easier for my brain to process and accept what I have to do, so I do not get overwhelmed
• Dividing self-dev activities into one in a day, make the process easier for my cognitive resources and I do not get bored with these activities after two days, as happened before
• Devoting time to some procrastination also shows a pattern and programs your brain not to waste more time than planned

For those of you, who still are not setting goals, planning at least a day ahead, I highly recommend watching this video from my favorite channel Afterskool:
