Signs of a restless brain
You have a restless brain that is not very productive by the end of the day if you are familiar with these situations:
You are at work, a difficult thought process is going on in your head, but a letter or SMS arrives, and a desire to react necessarily arises. The result is a lot of unfinished business at the end of the day: forgot, distracted, etc.
You solve a work task and suddenly the thought “Buy home milk” arises. The brain immediately looks for possible options for what to do to buy milk. The result is a “killed" working attitude.
During the meeting, an important question arises that is difficult to answer right away. The employee asks to formulate the task in a letter and send it to the post office. A letter arrives, the employee opens and understands that in a nutshell can not be explained. The result is a new meeting or meeting.
You walk with your family and think about work. Come to work and think about the appointment, which will be in 2 hours. Why get to work, if 2 hours are left before the meeting, I still won’t have time. The result - at a meeting you think about a walk with your family.
You go to bed at night and an important thought occurs to you. You try to sleep, but the thought does not leave you. The result is a tired, sleepy person early in the morning.
Are you familiar with the pain? Then the Jedi empty inbox technique is for you.
Incoming collection rules: what, how and when to collect
Now we pass directly to the technique. What you need to understand is the inbox parsing algorithm and its components:
“Inbox” or “Inbox” is all that awaits a solution from us. Incoming letters, open browser tabs, unassembled files on the desktop, an unread book on the desktop, a drill that we did not return to our neighbor (reminiscent of the need to hang a shelf), a cash receipt in a wallet, itchy thoughts - these are all inboxes;
task is the minimal essence of the system;
the brain is calm when inboxes are empty and tasks are recorded;
we split any business into tasks that we complete in 30 minutes;
a well-formulated task does not make one think where to start, and answers the question: “What needs to be done?”;
if you need less than 2 minutes to solve the problem, do it right now;
if you can’t see the tasks that you can take on, you need to set the task: “Think 15 minutes on the task ...”.
