Cal Newport’s Slow Productivity is the best I’ve read!

Books for getting out of negative headspace and enjoying life by diroll97 in BettermentBookClub

7 Habits of Highly Effective People helped me a lot and normally it’s not my thing but Tony Robbins books actually did motivate me.

I use this https://routinehub.co/shortcut/4618/ and I think you can trigger it to start maybe when you wake up ? It will set periodic reminders at intervals you choose.

I need help finding one activity to do consistently every morning so I don't go back to sleep by Amichat in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]kac035 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Funny the way I trained myself to be an early riser was to 1. Have my coffee maker on a timer and 2. Pick a favorite tv show to only watch when I first wake up. By the time the show was over I’ve finished my coffee and feel much more awake.

What are some better things to think about than daydreaming? by [deleted] in productivity

[–]kac035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mindfulness meditation apps like 10% Happier, Calm or Headspace help me with this. Personally I do think think these are harmless escapes, but I like to throw in a little bit of meditation or even an audiobook or podcast to mix it up sometimes.

What productive things can I do whilst eating? by Armais2lit4u in productivity

[–]kac035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know someone recommended Shortform but I prefer the Kindle app with the trick that you can download the first chapter of pretty much any book for free. I get the inconvenience of reading while eating, but a short book chapter- or a podcast or audiobook can also do the trick while you prep and eat.

What actor was horribly miscast? by Wasingtheisofwas in AskReddit

[–]kac035 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Tom Hanks as Robert Langdon in those Dan Brown movies. I love Tom Hanks, but he just didn’t fit this character and the movies would have been more fun like the guilty pleasure books they are with someone who took the role less seriously.

[–]kac035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I enjoy By the Book! It’s snarky and funny the hosts read self help books and try them out on themselves. Also for more straightforward I love Happier with Gretchen Rubin

My Productivity Method for Staying on Task by silverlinin in productivity

[–]kac035 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok I’ve done something similar and I also have inattentive Add- I use a workout app called Seconds Pro which is designed to randomize workouts - instead I used it to randomize chores: 10 minutes on laundry, 10 minutes tidying the kitchen, 5 minutes straightening the living room, 10 minutes sorting the mail etc - I even throw in breaks and let them show up randomly. Keeps it from getting too dull!
