Each day for a few weeks, I’ll give you a new tip on how to get more done with the same hours you already have. Here’s the next tip:
Be Unproductive Every Once In A While
That’s right, occasionally do a whole lot of nothin’ and have a good time doing it.
Doing nothing is easy, but sometimes you do it while feeling guilty inside that you’re ‘wasting your time’ because you have so much to do. This usually is the result of simply being unproductive whenever the mood hits (which is what we often do, such as after you eat, or after checking your email).
The trick to really enjoying your down-time is to plan it ahead of time, and make sure you’re productive when you need to be productive.
