How to manage your day with the best productivity

HI,

I found out this blog by Ryan Carson interesting.

We now that treehosue work 4 days per week. And we should probably know that working hards wont get you more than the other person working hard.

Planning the day to do on the goals we want to ahcieve make things easier and realistic.

I think this is a great article for whos interested.

Ryan Carson is a genius when it comes to this sort of stuff. I admire him so much for being gutsy enough to implement that type of work week.

For me one of the "hacks" that has worked well is doing a weekly scrum with my team and keeping using Kanban Flow with its pomodoro timer. Having a good way to measure what I have worked on and a visual of my workload keeps the momentum up while keeping my workload in check.

Im trying to sort my self a routine so i was looking at other successful people that have achieved what i want, so i look to kinda leverage thier 'routine/idea' and put that into my own 'path'.

So i ran out of ideas and head up to look at people such as Steve Jobs, and then i checked treehouse. I did little study about them basically. They all share similar qualities , where the messy people like the average joe maybe? well not everyone, but people without routine that fall into the habbit of skipping breakfast because of X and coudnt do Y becaause were to tired, and when wake up are tired because o W.

I used pomodoro but i dont like it because its too short, i cant do one thing for 25minutes, its just too short, id freak out if id need to do break soo often. More likely 50min would be perfect, but that beeps me every 25min.

I compared me self to other treehouse students and i know that im like very very very low in therms of learning because i didnt put enough work or learning or determination for it , and didnt do it as a routine , which i do the same with sport, i exercise fully for 2 weeks, and then other two weeks are messy.. you wonder how thats possibile.. infact now i stopped and im little productive , but i have a dream thats need to be ahcieved, and a vision with goal or objective before this summer which i want to ahvieve and this includded routine like Ryan Carson have.
