Throughout my career, though I’ve managed to be productive in aggregate, I’ve always sought to be more consistent in my productivity.

How productive I am at a given moment seems driven by a combination of few factors:

Since I obviously can’t rely on those things to always be in my favor, I’d like to learn to be able to make consistent progress on my tasks even when some of these factors are to my disadvantage. I’ve tried a lot of things, and some have worked for a time, but none of them have really stuck.

About a month ago I started a new system that I really like, and I hope I will stay with it.

The system is as follows:

That’s it! No need to plan my day in advance, or to block off specific times to work on things. I don’t pick my goals for the week ahead of time. I just sit down, choose my goal and write it down, and then start cranking. I think I’ve been more efficient for the past week and a half than I’ve ever been.

Here are a few reasons why I feel like it works well for me:

Overall, I’m excited, and hopefully there’s something in here that will be helpful for you too!
