NOTES
OUTLINES
- Keep a planner journal so you can easily track when you reach your goals and observe what does and doesn't work.
- Commit yourself to certain routines and tasks each day.
- Write your planned tasks out the night before so your brain has time to dwell on your goals and help ensure success.
- Arrange your work into a series of small challenges.
- Always make sure you, and your zombies, get lots of rewards.
- Take a few minutes to savor the feelings of happiness and triumph, which also gives your brain a chance to temporarily change modes.
- Deliberately delay rewards until you've finished a task.
- Watch for procrastination cues. Try putting yourself in new surroundings with few procrastination cues, such as the quiet section of a library.
- Gain trust in your new system. You want to work hard during times of focused concentration and also to trust your system enough so that when it comes time to relax, you actually relax without feelings of guilt or worry.
- Have back up plans for when you still procrastinate. No one’s perfect after all.
- Eat your frogs first every day. Happy experimenting.
