KateMats blog - 7 Proven ways to get more done in less time

Summary:

• Put all your tasks at one place
• Prioritise the added task. To prioritise a task,
  • decide if the tasks need is urgent or not.
  • Estimate the value of the task by estimating the impact of the task to the team/org/product/other teams
• Sort the tasks by the effort those task will take to finish.
• Be on time especially to the meetings or any commitments.
• Be present and focused when doing an task.
• Keep track of everything in one place.
• When you are thinking of a difficult task or project, change the way we think. Instead of thinking we can't do this because of ..., we should change the thinking like we can do this if these things exist - ....
• When stone walled on a task and procrastinating the tasks, to break out of this do one thing which can be done in next 5 - 10 minutes.
• For every task or milestone, set some deadline and then for these tasks establish timeline.

  My thoughts

• I use Obsidian to capture all the thoughts and tasks (you can see My_Development_Configuration).
• I need to learn to set priority for the tasks so that I can better plan and be more effective.
• I need to practice coming up with we can do this if ... exists mentality especially when designing.
• Many of the the above solutions sounds similar to what is prescribed in Get things done book (here is summary - Book-Summary-Getting_Things_Done). If you have not read the book, do read it.
