Be more productive

What I've learned from the life-hacking genius, @sseankim

1. List your 3 most important tasks. Before you leave the office, list 3 tasks for the next day that will have the most impact to what you are working on. Tip: If you already have a to-do-list, pick the task that is on the bottom of your list or the one that you have been avoiding the longest, and put it on the top.
2. Work in 90-minute intervals, then take breaks. Rather than looking at your day as a 6 or 8-hour work day, break your day up into three or four 90-minute chunks (1 task per 90-minute interval). Take breaks in between to go stretch, run — whatever you need to get your mind off work for a period of time.
3. Give yourself less time. Apply the Parkinson’s Law for everything you do during the day. As Tim Ferris puts it, “a task will swell in (perceived) importance and complexity in relation to the time allotted to complete it.”Basically, if you have 8 hours to do something, you’ll take all 8 hours for something that can be done in less time.
4. Branch similar tasks together. Whether it’s replying to e-mails, making phone calls, or sending out tweets, do them in bunches. Multi-tasking is the devil, and you do not want to waste your mental energy going back and forth on different tasks.
5. Ask for help. Emphasize what you’re good at, but don’t waste time trying to correct weaknesses. If you’re stuck on something, take 5 seconds to ask a neighbor or phone up a friend who may know the answer. Start leveraging your network, and it could save you hours of stress and time.
