Do you have a method?

I don`t have a method like yours but I just have some list of task to do for a day and the time depends on how long I will finish it. I will just to start with the priority things.

When I was working, I prepared a to-do list with priorities set on a daily basis. I'm semi-retired now. Completing my freelance jobs on schedule is my priority. Other than that, I just do things as I think of them. I may not focus on doing one thing at a time. I may read magazine/book while listening to music. Browsing the internet and check out myLot postings.

That might be something I could do. Will it be hot there today Heather? I hope you both are okay.

I just do things as I think of them.

I have no particular method. I do what seems most necessary first and go on from there.

No method here... When I am kinda bored with one thing, I do other stuff.

This is very interesting, because my mind is all over the place. It's hard for me to focus.

I do this as well. I work with 'time blocks' as I like to call it. My time blocks are 25-minute long.

I have lots of time on my hands,so I needn't set the timer.However I usually sign in Mylot in the afternoon.

I also like to use a timer. It helps me a lot

I do this too with housework. Ten minutes to do what I can in one room. Often by then I'm on a roll and will finish what I'm doing if I haven't already. I work much faster with a clock ticking away too.

That's an effective idea to keep you focused Heather I do use a timer when drying clothes to remind me to take them out or check on them to see if they are dry. Especially if I'm on My Lot or watching TV.

Ok. A method, hmm, not really. I finish mylot notification while looking at emails or playing games at greater good.com. I like to play games at least for half an hour or more a day. Drink coffee for focus and stamina.

Yes. Perfect. I'm doing that method also.

I used to do that, but now just dedicate an hour a day to cleaning or what not, whatever task I am trying to accomplish.

I have a certain method to my madness. I don't set timers, but I have found that I am most productive when I am multi-tasking. I get antsy if I sit on any one task for too long, so I'll have several things going all at once. If I had to guess, I am most likely just like you and can stay focused on one task for about 30 minutes. And then I switch gears and start tackling something else, again fro about 30 minutes, before changing tasks yet again. But I limit myself to how many tasks I'll have going on at one time, so that eventually I'll circle back around to the first task I was working on and continue the cycle. I know it sounds crazy to work like that, but it has served me well. My boss says I am one of the first people she has ever seen in my role that has been able to successfully handle the position and workload. It is because in my job multi-tasking is critical, and it is one thing I excel at.

I need a system that I will stick to.

My computer and phone both show the time constantly so I don't need the timer. I work as long as like and move away from the site.

I like to make lists and cross things off as I accomplish them. A timer would never work for me since I am on Noise.Cash and MyLot about 4-5 hours a day. I try to get them out of the way in one sitting.
