I had some trouble getting things organized and a schedule down, but I once I did, I was movin! It is amazing what a little work can do to make a load go away!

One of the hardest things (for non writers) in implementing your approach is finding a reasonable metric for one's type of work. As an IT consultant, I do a wide range of very different activities. Most of them come only with very soft metrics, such as meeting results or slides per hours ;-). Still even subjective numbers help to assess one's productivity and get a glimpse of the 4-hour work day. Great post.

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 05:03:43 +0000 http://thinksimplenow.com/productivity/the-4-hour-workday/#comment-67808 Really great article. This is my second time reading this because I needed a refresher. I was doing the system for a while (at least the daily goals) and it was definitely working. I was able to get more done than I normally do. I really agree with the idea that it is not about getting it done in 4-hours but it is the idea of getting more done than you normally would. Recently I have noticed I have been starting one thing and then thinking of 5 other things that need to be done. This system helps me focus on the task at hand so I can cross it off my daily goals list. This time around I am going to combine the daily with the weekly goals and see how it goes. Thanks for putting this together! Really great article. This is my second time reading this because I needed a refresher.
