• Page in the Format of Adding Information on Top

  • I want to consider the issues of My Work Management and come up with solutions to implement an improvement cycle.
  • A curiosity-driven improvement cycle similar to what is written in Scrapbox Intellectual Productivity 10 / Textbox Task Management / Structure of WorkFlowy by Takanori Kurashita.
  • Considering the Causes of Inaction Environmentally and Blaming Others

• I want to try GTD (blu3mo).

• Antifragile Task Management Method

• Reading a Book on Task Management

• I feel it’s important to boost motivation.

  • Since I have some level of interest in what I’m currently doing, I want to enhance my motivation.
  • It should be beneficial to align motivation with task priorities.

• I want to systematically proceed with the tasks of Physics1600.

• GTD Group

• Philosophy of Writing: Writing Theory for Writers Unable to Write

  • Intriguing.

• I want to understand the details of GTD and TaskChute.

• I feel the need to compress the time spent on distractions like internet surfing, which tends to dissipate.

  • Due to feeling a lack of time.
  • While in the past, there used to be regrets like “I should have worked on the report during that free time a few weeks ago,” now it seems like there is no longer that “free time a few weeks ago.”
    • Hence, the desire to improve work efficiency during busy times.
  • Specific measures need to be taken.
    • I want to find a way to focus on a single task.
      • Currently, apart from occasionally entering a state of concentration, there is no other method.

  • Accomplishments:
    • Going to bed by 23:00-24:00 and utilizing the morning hours.
      • It worked quite well (blu3mo).
      • Feels like effectively utilizing the vague morning hours.
      • Feels like it would be even better to implement Automatic Turn Off to prevent falling asleep with the lights on.
  • It was a week with many small tasks.
    • I feel like I managed to handle a good amount over the weekend.
  • Wondering if it was a good idea to run deep learning training alongside tasks.
    • Feeling scattered and tired.
    • Perhaps it would be better to focus on something like reading novels instead?
      • Having only one “thing to do” allows for a better balance of focus between the two tasks.
  • Writing an internship feedback article for Nota has been weighing heavily on my mind.
    • Mentally exhausting.
    • While using Deciding Not to Do It That Day somewhat alleviated the burden, when the deadline approached, it became unavoidable.
    • Yet, even on Sunday night, I couldn’t bring myself to start working on it.
    • What should I have done?
      • It seems beneficial to allocate time slots on the calendar for tasks of this nature (requiring energy to start).
      • Treat those time slots like a Zoom meeting, focusing solely on that task during that time.
        • And not trying to run deep learning training simultaneously, haha.

  • Write down what to do and what not to do for the day.
    • from Capacity Over
  • If mentally relaxed, consider Google Calendar Full Registration Todo Management.
  • However, instead of forcing yourself to do the most important task, it might be better to work on tasks with lower priority but higher motivation.
    • from Task management by writing down tasks and gradually climbing up
    • Although this contradicts the first point.
      • Well, perhaps recognizing things that don’t need to be done and lightening your mind before engaging with them could be the way to go.
