Pain:

• Can’t focus on work - too many distractions

• we know we should plan, but it’s difficult to stick to a plan

• Not as productive as I’d like to be- feeling guilty.

Dream:

• don’t procrastinate and get work done

• maintain focus longer

• don’t have to manage a dozen apps.

• don’t have to enter information into a bunch of forms.

LineTime

Optimize your day

We all want to get our work done efficiently. It means less stress and more free time. You know it’s better to just focus and get it done- but it’s hard with all the distractions of modern life. Linetime makes it easy by keeping track of not just your tasks, but the time you spend on them as well. -It turns out this is really crucial.-

A simple process you can try out right now

Here’s a great technique to increase your productivity- and it doesn’t even need an app:

1. With a pen and paper, write down the things you want to get done today.

2. Break them down into tasks you can complete in 25-90 minutes

3. Going through the list, start a kitchen timer for each task. After the timer goes off, take a short break, then start the next task.

4. After going through 4 or so items, take a longer break. Repeat the process for as long as you want.

You might already know this, it’s called “time-boxing”, and it works really well.

Research in psychology has come to two conclusions why this works for so many people:

1: Making the plan in the first place get us into the right mindset. Since we’ve already invested time into a plan, it’s easy to transition into the work itself.

2: Our focus has a rhythm. It goes up and down as the day goes on. By breaking our time up into small periods of focused work with short breaks in between, our focus can get into the right groove.

That sounds really convoluted. So I have to keep track of timers and stuff too?

It is! It’s a huge pain to manage all of that. But here’s the thing, Linetime does most of the work for you. It starts with writing.
