Hey all, I'm trying to better organize my working days. I have several things on my plate and I think I'm context switching too much so many times I don't wrap the day feeling very productive. I recently came across Deep Work by Cal Newport and want to try that extremely focused approach. The best thing I do is use an outliner (second brain) which is a great help.
- How do you plan your workday?
- Do you limit SN/social media in some way or use browsing blockers?
- Do you limit the number of concurrent projects?
- How do your breaks look like?
- If you cook at home are there tricks you use to optimize the time it takes?
- Where does family time, walking, chilling, working out fit in your day?

at the start of each day.notes
.YYYY-summary.txt
with important information that I want to carry over into the next year.org-mode
in Emacs is as close as you can get in a plain-text format.
