Popular Post Tropicalevo Posted June 11 Popular Post Share Posted June 11 Being an ex-IT guy and spending years in Project Management, I use old fashioned spreadsheets and 'to do' lists. Unfortunately, being an old, forgetful guy now, it does not work so well. I forget to look at them. Maybe write all of the interests down on a spread sheet. Sort them into priority order and then plan your weeks allocating whatever time you want to spend on it.. Leave gaps in the times because there are always interruptions, distractions and things overrun. Do not forget 'chill out' time/activity. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgegeorgia Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 (edited) Get into a ROUTINE One reason I got bored in my 6 week imprisonment in Pattaya was because I had no routine ! Going to bed late waking up.late no planning for the day or even week! Make plans for the week ahead Time management!! Sleep,gym ,work , days off And do MULTI TASKING When your at work , do other personal things instead of working I bring my washing in to wash my clothes in the the hospital laundry etc and wash them at night during work time Also go on ASEAN during work time as well , I also "exercise" at work to get in my cardio ....walk upstairs,walking ,squats and balance on one leg as your mopping the stairwells and I don't care who sees me ! If your doing too much then you need to say NO Try working shift work that's time management, shift workers have the Highest sick leave record , not me though One week 11pm to 7am One week 2pm to 10pm One week 6am to 2pm Manage your time !!!!

OneMoreFarang Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Most important is to set priorities. A long time ago I worked with this, on paper. Time/System – Time/system (timesystem.com) I think I also read a book from them which was helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focus more on the interests that have some meaning for your own thoughts and feelings, besides those of people you care about. Prioritize those. Spend little to no time on politics (many here suffer from brain-eating space monkeys) and topics that aren't your business and have nothing to do with you.
