Just Do It: 11 Ways to Increase Your Willpower and Self-Discipline “Destiny is not a matter of chance. It’s a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.” Reading time: 6-8 minutes It’s early in the morning. Your alarm goes off. Beep, beep, beep. You open your eyes, feeling groggy and disoriented. Still half-asleep, you try to figure out what’s going on. Then you remember. Last night, feeling particularly inspired, you decided you’d get up early and go for a run before heading to work. Ahhhh shit. Your bed feels so warm, so comfy, like a little cocoon. You close your eyes again. You can take the easy way out, hit snooze and go back to sleep… Or take the highest road, put on your running shoes, and head out the door. The choice is yours and only yours… What will it be? Every single day, we’re faced with countless little decisions like this one. In these moments, we have to decide between what’s good for us… and what’s easy, comfortable, safe. Individually, most of these decisions are fairly inconsequential. As Roy F. How? 1. 2.
Wishberg - Wishlist of things to do in your lifetime! Your Bucket List. Producteev Two: The Task Management Service I’ve Been Longing For I’m one of the worst ‘task managers’ you’ll ever meet. There are thousands of services out there that would make my life way easier, that I either don’t know about or that are too complex or too simple for my taste and needs. So when I got pitched by an entrepreneur in between sessions at the recent TechCrunch Disrupt conference about a “new breakthrough cross-platform task management product”, I was skeptical. Five minutes later, I was sold. Enter Producteev, which is launching said new product – dubbed Producteev Two – today. Here’s what I love about it: Producteev Two lets users capture tasks, email-based action items or schedule deadlines using whatever communication channel they prefer. No longer need I feel forced to visit a web application to save and manage tasks, unless I choose to do so. There’s even some sort of social gaming aspect to the product. In addition, the company this morning announced the launch of Producteev Two for the iPhone, which is also free.

Hack Your Productivity: A Time-Management Geek's 10-Minute Solution I just had the most productive week ever. I am a bit of a time-management geek. I’ve met and interviewed some amazing entrepreneurs, CEOs, and politicians. They all have one thing in common: They achieve more in less time than the rest of us. They each follow their own system, and I’ve tried some version of every one. But two weeks ago I tried something new. First, let me tell you what it’s not. This also is not a checklist. And you simply cannot predict these unexpected opportunities. So what we need is both: the vision and the action. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. I created a simple strategy tracking tool, which you can find on the tools page of my website (kaihan.net). I did this for two weeks and amazing things started happening. Even more important were the advances that were not on my to-do list. The daily “meditation” clears your mind, pulls you above the trees, and reconnects you with what you are building (your long-term vision).
Osho on Dynamic Meditation: Catharsis Q: How do you bring about the catharsis that you are talking about? It takes time, but it is not difficult. How have we become so suppressed? The method of repression is to not express. My method is to express everything that is inside. In the first step, I insist on chaotic breathing, for ten minutes. So first I insist on chaotic breathing. In the second step, when your breathing has disturbed your body/mind completely, I tell you to express whatever is inside you. The second step is expression. For this second step to happen totally, takes time. Only then can the third step happen. “Hoo” – meaningless. Modern man – the modern mind and the modern body – is so involved with sex that unless that center is hit, nothing can be done with man. In the third step, you are to just go on crying, screaming, “Hoo!” So these are the three steps to do. This fourth step is what has been known for ages as meditation. Osho
Pageflakes - The whole Web at your Fingertips! Do It Now by Steve Pavlina When going to college many years ago, I decided to challenge myself by setting a goal to see if I could graduate in only three semesters, taking the same classes that people would normally take over a four-year period. This article explains in detail all the time management techniques I used to successfully pull this off. In order to accomplish this goal, I determined I'd have to take 30-40 units per semester, when the average student took 12-15 units. It became immediately obvious that I'd have to manage my time extremely well if I wanted to pull this off. I began reading everything I could find on time management and putting what I learned into practice. I wasn't considered a gifted child, and this was the first time I had ever done anything like this. I didn't tell you this story to impress you but rather to make you curious as to how I did it. Clarity is key. The first step is to know exactly what you want. If you aren't yet at the point of clarity, then make that your first goal.
You’re Not As Busy As You Think In many ways, I’m writing this post to myself. I had a very interesting conversation with my shrink the other day, wherein which he was calling me out on some of my less-attractive behaviors. He said to me, “Maybe you don’t do those things because you think you’re too busy and too needed elsewhere to do them.†(In this instance, the “things†were all the tasks I can’t seem to master in life, like paying bills on time.) What’s interesting is that the conversation resonated with a few others I’d had. YOU’RE NOT AS BUSY AS YOU THINK Again, this post might be me writing to myself. Most humans want this. But it can also be another kind of addiction. If you’re busy, you must be important. Busy lets us try and not focus on experiences that hurt us or feelings that cause us some suffering. My first steps towards becoming less busy were all very simple and tactical. I did the same to my computers. I got less busy in my public life, too. This is the hardest part for me.
