- Ideal day breakdown:
- 8h sleep
- 2.5h daily chores
- 1.5h exercise (including travel, if any)
- 7h work
- 7h rest
- Within rest:
- Do or suffer: things that must be done or will have some unpleasant consequences
- There is usually some mental stress, anxiety, associated with these
- Ironically, these don't often have a hard deadline/urgency attached to them. They just lay low and creep up on you.
- eg., buy pepper spray, secondary back up of documents (in resilio sync), pet registration, etc.
- Life (us): things that need maintenance, planning, and organization
- eg., buy new headsets; stuff going on at B-904
- Life (parents and sisters): things that need maintenance, planning, and organization
- eg., Dad wants to buy new printer; A.C. broke down; plan Alka-Aakash trip; plan Goa trip
- Life (other loved ones): things that need maintenance, planning, and organization
- Fulfilment: things of skills and creativity
- slow progress, but compound payoff
- this is best made part of routine
- eg.,
- Leisure: unplanned, no-deadlines, fun stuff
- includes socializing, and time spent with Chhavi
- Alka-Aakash trip does not file under this. That project is all planning and organizing.
- painting with chhavi
- reading for leisure
- TV
- Notes:
- No point in getting frustrated. This is life. Most of the time *will be* spent in maintenance mode. Make the best of the leftover time.
- A category applies to a project, or an independent activity. A project/activity may or may not have tasks under it. A category is not applied to a task.
