A New Practice for a New Reality

Do you think that it is possible for a person to take control of his long to-do-list and still feel relaxed at the end of the day? Yes, it is, and this book will show you how.

Having a system that allows you to work and still be relaxed is essential. In our current time, the definition of what our job is has become unclear. Our jobs are always changing, and new responsibilities are adding up day after day.

In the past, job goals were clearly presented to the employee. Now, it’s up to them to understand what they have to do to get things done by the end of the day. This is a lot of pressure.

You need to change a few habits that you may be doing wrong. First, you need to be clear about what it is that you want to do. If you have an idea, try to write it down clearly and set up a due date for that task. If you don't, your mind will keep being distracted. You will be thinking about all your tasks, and you won't be able to focus on the current one.

Second, try to be 100% focused on the task at hand. To achieve more results during the day, you need to be laser-focused to finish each task faster. When you have a clear vision and a distraction-free work zone, you will be in control, and you will not feel stressed.
For example, let me ask you a question. In the last few minutes, has your mind wandered to a different place while reading this chapter? If yes, then surely there is a task that you want to get done, but you did not take the time to clear it out from your brain.

When you have a task that you decide to do, your brain will keep reminding you of the same task until you get it done. Imagine having ten unfinished tasks; how much distraction will that give you? Surely, it will be difficult for you to concentrate on the task you are doing right now.
The solution to this problem is to write down a list of everything that comes to your mind. Write the task and a follow-up sentence with the details of the task. You also need to set a clear deadline for this task so that your brain can stop worrying about it.

The explanation is simple. If you think of a task that needs to be done and you don’t give it a specific time frame, your brain will think that you need to be doing this task all the time. It is not accomplished yet. Whenever you are busy doing something else, your brain will keep distracting you and trying to make you do the things your brain believes are more important.

Making a list will help your brain settle down. By the end of every week, try to review this list and make the changes that you need to make.
Unless you keep a clearly defined to-do list, you will find it impossible to concentrate on one task. Remember that focus is key to doing more in less time, without stress.

Getting Projects Creatively Under Way: The Five Phases of Project Planning

In the previous chapter, we talked about the importance of getting things out of your brain to focus on the things that are important to you right now.
Sometimes by keeping a to-do list that we don’t review, we lose a few great ideas that may bring us a lot of success. To avoid this problem, we need to plan ahead.

There are different types of planning. You can use horizontal planning where you clearly set the goal of each task and the actions or the steps required to achieve this goal. Usually, this type of planning will require setting visible reminders that will stop you from forgetting the task.

Another type of planning is vertical planning. It requires more focus on details and trying to come up with solutions to achieve every step. This doesn't mean that you need to sit down and use particular software. You can achieve this by recording it on a piece of paper.

The most effective way of planning, however, is a natural way. Our brain is the most effective planner in the world. Forget about your notebook and your software. Your brain is capable of doing much more useful things.

Natural planning follows five steps. First, you need to plan your goal. Second, you need to have a clear vision of your outcome. Third, you need to start brainstorming ideas. Fourth, you need to organize these ideas. Finally, you need to identify your next course of action.

To explain further, we will take the example of planning your dinner. When you plan your everyday tasks, you are using your natural way of planning.
First, you decide on the purpose of your dinner. Are you going out with friends to socialize or to party? Is it to celebrate a special event, a date, or a business dinner? Your brain starts to set the boundaries of this dinner, such as money, services, and type of food.

Second, once your purpose is clear, you start to have an idea about the outcome. You are now thinking about Italian food, a cafe, or a Chinese place. Now you start envisioning the place you decided to go to. You can see yourself sitting next to the window, watching people as they go by. You can even smell the food and remember the taste.

Once your vision is clear, you start to have some ideas. Your brain starts to brainstorm unconsciously. You think about the time when you should go. Will the place be open? What kind of clothes should you wear? Is the car ready for the trip? And so on.

Once this flow of ideas is over, you start to organize them. You start thinking that by eight, you will leave the house, go to the specific restaurant you chose, and then sit down. You will be wearing your black dress with your black heels, and you will be taking your coat with you because the weather gets cold at night. You will be able to see the full movie of your dinner play out.

Now that everything is planned out, you decide to take the first action. You call your friend and ask them to go out, then call the restaurant and make reservations.
I bet you didn’t know that your brain is doing this kind of planning all day long. Why not use this type of planning to get things done the natural way? This will be less stressful than using a chart or software.
