Abdinasir is one of our new full stack developers we’re testing out working with, and during one of our chats, he told me his schedule had been super hectic, but rather than try to juggle everything, Abdinasir said he was able to set himself up for success by assessing what he needed and wanted to do, breaking his time down into chunks or blocks, and assigning those blocks to certain activities so he could focus completely and put his whole self into them, performing his best, and enjoying his time to the fullest.
During that time, I also had a hectic week near the end. I had to cancel a 6-7 hour schedule on Thursday to set up Ugeddit’s webinars, and then on Friday had 5 meetings about planning Agile epics, exploring grant opportunities for Ugeddit, and planning our first webinars with potential speakers and topics.
But then even though I had many things to do on Saturday, I decided to take a step back, and relax. I ignored my schedule’s exact timings and just let my mind settle before taking any action or even before thinking about anything specific, until my mind was fully settled on the top priority, and I saw the path ahead to completing it and where it leads.
I disregarded my schedule because I had my agenda in my head as my path, and just focused on my current step on that path, until the next, until the next, and I did everything extremely calmly and smoothly.It felt great, and I performed great.
The most surprising part was that after I finished everything, I checked the time, expecting I had finished late, but actually I had finished almost exactly on time (within 10 minutes of my schedule). This reminded me of the importance of what I’d been reminding myself the past month: settle my mind on what’s most important, plan the road towards it, and focus on the step just in front of me until it’s done.
That moment, and the rest of my day, felt awesome.
Yes! Finally someone writes about website.
I think everything posted was actually very reasonable.
But, what about this? what if you added a little content?
I ain’t suggesting your content is not good., but suppose
you added a title that grabbed people’s attention? I mean Great Time-Management – Ugeddit is kinda vanilla.
You might look at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create article titles
to grab people to click. You might add a
related video or a related picture or two to grab readers excited about everything’ve
got to say. In my opinion, it could make your website a little livelier.
It’s truly very complex in this busy life to listen news on Television, therefore I simply
use web for that reason, and obtain the newest
news.
Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog
that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for a
plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would
have some experience with something like this.
Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog
and I look forward to your new updates.
If some one needs to be updated with hottest technologies therefore he must be pay a quick visit this web site

Hello! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against
hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any recommendations?
Hi there! I could have sworn I’ve been to your blog before but after looking
at a few of the posts I realized it’s new to me.
Regardless, I’m certainly happy I stumbled upon it and I’ll be book-marking it and checking back often!
I enjoy reading a paper that can acquire people to think.
Moreover, many thanks associated with allowing for myself to annotate!
Its like you read my mind! You seem to know a lot
about this, like you wrote the book in it or something.
I think that you could do with a few pics to drive the message home a bit, but other than that,
this is fantastic blog. A fantastic read. I will certainly be
back.
Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam responses?
If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can recommend?
I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy so any help is very
much appreciated.
