Notepad and Pen

So in yesterday’s post, I mentioned the book Fast Focus. I recommend the book for anyone looking for immediate, actionable tools for improving productivity. This post is about one of my absolute favorite suggestions the book presented, and the twist I have spun on it myself.

This is my new notepad, small enough to fit in my shirt or back pocket at all times and not uncomfortable to carry around. This is important, since I intend to have this on me 24/7. This will be in my pocket anytime I go outside, at my desk anytime I sit down to work, and at my bedside when I am sleeping. It’s primary purpose is to write down pressing and sudden thoughts that would otherwise be forgotten.

Fast Focus explains that sudden thoughts can distract you from productivity, especially if these thoughts are about tasks you need to remember later. By writing them down, you are able to close the open loop in your mind and focus without distraction. You do not need to focus on remembering the task or worrying that you may not, once its in your notes you know you can consult them later.

I have taken this a small step further. I bought a 4-color pen on amazon to organize my thoughts sooner. Red is important to-do. Blue is anything I wan’t to study or learn about. Green is reserved for writing inspiration. Black will be anything miscellaneous or extra, anything that doesn’t fit into those categories.

This has already proven invaluable. Since carrying it around I have written into it several times a day and referred to it whenever planning out my future days. I hope that someone see’s this and is inspired to do the same!

As an added benefit, I’ll never have to worry about having something to write on or with when I see someone I want to ask out either. ;)

Google Calendar

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I have never been a huge fan of Calendar apps, or the huge ensemble of google services in general. Some, like google docs, I have come to appreciate but most seem unnecessary or even tedious to maintain. Until the past few days, Google Calendar was one of them.

In a book I read recently, Fast Focus, it detailed how to use your time productively and get the most out of your day and your time. One of the largest things it promoted was checklists, and also setting reasonable goals. As of a few days ago I have setup google calendar to notify me at various points in my day to accomplish certain tasks, and it has made my productivity increase greatly.

Three large goals a day is the idea. For tomorrow I get to go out and drive for Uber, and also use that time to follow up with other jobs. After that, I need to arrange and budget for certain bills and finally I have set it to remind me to apply to two more locations.

The day after that, I write for my first productive period(especially since the morning is generally the most conscious and productive period of the day,) apply to two more jobs, and do the research required for a second interview I have scheduled.

My day will not be limited to these tasks, but creating this system means that my most important tasks for each day are completed and I am held accountable for them. The best part is that I can type and arrange this on my computer, a large manageable screen with a full keyboard, and then be notified on my phone. For my interview I even set it up to notify me 2 hours before I leave and then again when I am actually supposed to leave.

For anyone on the fence, I do recommend it! I’ll update again later with tips and tricks once I’m more familiar with the app.
