Do you want to get more work done in less time?
And do you want to focus on more IMPORTANT work?
Here are three methods *I* use for that ⬇️
(You can apply them anywhere—but #ToolsforThought like @RoamResearch, @obsdmd, @amplenote, @logseq, etc., are where I like to work.)

Method 1: Clusters and Rhythm reduce Transitions
Transitions are where #Productivity goes to die. We get distracted, we follow tangents.
(1) Cluster related tasks
- Tasks that are related by location, project, co-worker, etc., are easier to tick off one right after the other

(1) Cluster related tasks

(2) Standardize work startups & shutdowns
- When every piece of work has a predictable starting and ending routine, your work finds its Rhythm. The routines shouldn’t be long or complicated, just consistent and reliable.
Once you’ve got your Rhythm going, transitions fade away

Method 2: Recurring Tasks, Projects, and Processes
Reinventing wheels and starting from scratch are time-consuming and exhausting.
Capture everything that you do regularly and turn them into templates.
You’ll save tons of time and energy in the long run!

Method 3: Establish your Priorities and Points
The greatest productivity system in the world is useless if you feed it garbage.
What are the Priority areas in your life? What Points within them are you working toward?
Know where you’re going and you’ll get there faster!

Getting more done in less time and focusing on the IMPORTANT work in your life are admirable goals.
There are lots of ways to accomplish them, but the three methods above have been the most useful for me.
Try them out and let me know what you think!
