Other Tips:



Mornings: Build out your morning plan



– for me, no phone until I’ve been up, gotten coffee, stretch/yoga, silent time/prayer time and some days a run before I even look at phone or email. I highly recommend it, even if only certain days.



Adjust: Keep notes as you go along about things you find yourself doing 



– this will help you pick new topics and items you want to time block for. Making this work is a PROCESS, not something you just figure out up front. If you go into it knowing it will take you 6 months to a year to get good at it, you’ll have more success and really develop a lasting habit of blocking a prioritizing.



Be Flexible: Remember to leave reasonable gaps in between blocks for “stuff” that inevitably happens.



Be Reasonable: Don’t get so detailed that you don’t want to follow your plan and don’t be so loose that you can justify what you did as a certain topic.



Color Code: Use color coding for certain event types!
