3.A PERSONAL SYSTEM
Tuesday, June 17, 14
3.A PERSONAL SYSTEM
A combination of both techniques and tools
depending on the scenarios of your daily work
Tuesday, June 17, 14
A personal system means to have a strict routine
and procedures.
Depends on daily work activities, how your system is
going to be set.
You can have multiple scenarios, for different days or
situations.
3.A PERSONAL SYSTEM
Tuesday, June 17, 14
EXAMPLE OF
PERSONAL SYSTEM
Set your mood and visualize your tasks for the day.
Plan your day the night before, or during the morning.
Start with your mind map or kanban, what am I going
to do today?
Daily standup to start your project prioritization.
Use pomodoro for every activity; no more than 25
minutes.Take little breaks to distract your mind.
Tuesday, June 17, 14
Don’t schedule meetings after certain hour.“Tuesdays
are for project clients”.
Track with context every activity. At the end of the
week you will see when you are more productive and
doing what.
“12pm and 6pm are email hours”.
Meal time is always at certain time.
Tuesday, June 17, 14
CONCLUSIONS
Tuesday, June 17, 14
Use techniques, tools and combine them
to define a personal system to manage better
your time.
Stick to a routine!
Start with short tasks to get the ball rolling. Stop
multitasking, it merely kills your focus.
Tuesday, June 17, 14
We’re always more focused and productive with
limited time. Set deadlines for everything,
don’t let the work get indefinitely.
More work doesn’t mean productivity. Use
constrains as opportunities.
Reminder apps for everything, don’t trust
your brain.
Tuesday, June 17, 14
This is for your life and for the
people who care about you
Girl/Boy-friend.
Colleagues.
Family.
Friends.
Customers.
