Developing a Productivity System for Beginners

Whats the difference between system and routines

Doing this digitally probably isn’t the best idea seeing as how addicted people are to their phones and technology in general. I suggest a planner. Everything you need is in a planner.

These are great and inspiring ideas and examples of systems. And they demonstrate that there is more to productivity then I in the first place thought.

I hope this works because I am a total wreck right now due to procrastination and lack of productivity.

For those who aren't familiar with bullet journal, please look for resources/tutorials from the creator himself, Ryder Carroll. People get intimidated with bujo because of the creative spreads out there, but this tool is actually meant to be simple.

What a great video

Putting your plans down in writing really sets the INTENTION to do it. At the very least, the ATTEMPT is made at actualizing that goal. It acts on the subconscious, since you took the time to CONSCIOUSLY address it. It's not 100%, since we still have to have the DESIRE to see something to completion, but making lists and plans always helps me. Fortunately, I do this naturally, since I'm an INTJ and Capricorn sun. My mom is more haphazard in the way she conducts her life. I've suggested organizational tools and strategies, but she has no interest in tightening up her productivity or in completing the tasks that she keeps forgetting about. They're simply not priorities for her. She'd rather neglect the roof until the wood's rotted and it's leaking inside, rather than prevent larger problems and save a lot of money.

Being organized, yet still being flexible and adaptable to whatever Life brings your way that way, is optimal. It never hurts to jot down ALL goals/intentions, whether big or small, short- or long-term. The mere act of DOING it alters your cellular response. It gets into your muscle memory, and you create synapses. You strengthen your bonds to these thoughts and memories when you reinforce them with recall and commitment to complete it.

I have a list of affirmations that I created over a certain period of time. I haven't added to them in a while, since I've covered the range of life areas that I want to make myself mindful of, and they remain valid and relevant. One will be timeless, and it is this: "TODAY'S INTENTION: To make it a purposeful and productive one."

Tried calendar for a couple of years, but often forget to look regularly. Or I was in the middle of something else, that couldn't be interrupted during the time slotted.

Finally used clock with alarms. It rings until I answer, and I can snooze until I'm ready and it rings again.

Wish the calendar had the alarm clock's ring-until-answer and snooze ability.

Something about checking off tasks on a to do list really gets me going. I treat it like an exercise - I started off doing 3 high impact tasks per day. Like weights, I gradually increased the resistance (4 tasks, 5 tasks..). I've found that 7-8 tasks is my sweet spot.

This landed EXACTLY when I needed to restructure myself. Thank you!

It would be amazing if you made a playlist or video that goes over setting goals, planning, and executing while avoiding distraction and staying on track.
I set goals, make to do lists and I am never able to get anything done. I get angry that I cannot make weekly progress and I just give up in frustration and never reach my goals.

It's easy to be busy, it's more difficult to be productive

I definitely fall into the "DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO" category. Once I put it on the list, I become combative about following it. 😂

You can't help a man who won't help himself!

I always rely on my memory. I'm a routine guy but I struggle being able to incorporate a calendar into my organization.

A daily to do list definitely helped me, just in notes on my phone, write it the night before, not so many that’s it’s impossible to attain and all good!

Thanks for sharing, and I totally agree with of keeping a to do list and scheduling your time is a genuinely valuable way to make best use of time. And no, they certainly don't restrict the day, they provide the structure to actually help you get true freedom!

The calender and schedules can be flexible and open to change lf necassary as unexpected things can take place sometimes ...
