I often imagine that everyday life is like a big show. In a big show, it will be filled by other small shows which will be performed alternately. And isn't it true that in a small show, we have to focus and finish it wholeheartedly?
If you answered "Yes" and have done so then you have used timeblocking.
What is Timeblocking?
Now, let's start with a simple one. What is Timeblocking?
It's like a magic tool that helps you allocate specific time for specific tasks.
Timeblocking helps us maximize our time. In this way, we can work more efficiently, be more focused, and of course, be more productive. A simple example is, you eat lunch at the office from 12 - 1. And yes, that is timeblocking.
Why Focus and Efficiency are Important in Everyday Life
From smartphone notifications to unexpected meetings, it's easy to get caught up in the never-ending flow of chaos. Too many things that can distract us right?
If you can focus on one task at a time, you can maximize your effort and attention. Done faster and absolutely better.
My schedule changes all the time...
Anything may happen that changes the plans. I know that you have high expectations and believe you can make things perfect. But the reality is, we can't control everythings.
But don't worry, Timeblocking has the flexibility you need. When plans change, just move your time blocks to the appropriate place. And actually, many apps or tools that can help. Personally, I prefer to use a website called Plan: Organize your life (Get Plan). Maybe you can use Google Calendar or Notion which has been talked about a lot by influencers lately.
So, are you ready to be more productive using timeblocking? Or have you often applied it and found insights and tips to share?
Feel free to share your insights and experiences! And, thanks for reading~
