Most of us (including me 💁♂️ ) do not have a set schedule, we do not have a set of tasks ✅ that we complete each day at the same time.
While this might not seem like something that’ll be the difference in success and failure, I still lead with this sentence, why⁉
💡 For someone like me who does not thrive in chaos and likes to know what needs to get done beforehand, doing the same daily tasks over and over again for 5 days out of 7 provides a massive boost in performance (not only task-specific performance but it seems to overflow into general life results and direction)💡
These repetitive tasks need to have the following features to be able to create a positive impact on your life:
🏹 They need to be constructive or creative (like meditating, journalling, exercising, waking up early, reading, researching, writing, etc.)
🏹 They are to be done at the same (or similar) time each day.
🏹 The results are best when these are done at least 4 to 5 days in a week.
🏹 The amount of minutes you put into a particular task does not matter as much as doing it consistently does.
The idea behind this is that planning and living your days within a designed framework for long enough will eventually give structure to your life.
↩ A small caveat to this is that if you are someone who thrives in disorder and has flow-state experiences every other day of the week, you just keep on keeping on! (But such people are rare and most of us have learn to be successful)
