#TimeBlocking


PLAN YOUR WEEK! Contd:


  1. The planning may take time up front, but it will return much greater productivity for the entire week that follows.
  2. It allows you to identify important patterns that can help you get much more accomplished. If you see, for e.g., that Wednesday through Friday are very busy due to a visiting client, then you can compensate by squeezing in more uninterrupted deep work on Monday or Tuesday. Or if you know you’ll be off-site all day Friday, then you can adjust your Thursday schedule to make sure loose ends are tied up before the trip.
  3. Sometimes your weekly planning habit can motivate you to change appointments already on your calendar. After trying and failing to fit in enough hours to finish an important project, for e.g., you might realize that you need to cancel or reschedule a few non-urgent appointments perhaps coffee with a colleague or a meeting for a speculative project to make room for the more urgent work.
