Card technique

Every evening, writer and entrepreneur Tim Ferriss writes down a few priorities for the next day on a small card. He limits the number to three to five. This simple technique forces him to select only the genuinely key tasks, which he then focuses on first thing in the morning when his brain is freshest. So, every afternoon or evening, make a note of your own priorities for the next day, and you will see you can much better determine what is truly important to you and also stop procrastinating.

Work in the state of flow

Steven Kotler is an expert on the state of flow, namely a state where you are fully engaged in the work you are doing and don't notice your surroundings or become distracted. Kotler recommends starting each workday by reviewing the project you worked on the previous day and want to work on during the given day. This habit allows you better to immerse yourself in your work and eliminates unnecessary distractions.

Tony Robbins' RPM strategy

Robbins advises clearly defining the result (R), the purpose (P) and the massive action (M) for each major task you are working on. This strategy will help you focus on the really important goals and give your work meaning.

Finding work-life balance

Take inspiration from Tony Hawk's approach, who, on the advice of his family, reassessed his priorities and found a balance between his career and personal life. Don't neglect your health and relationships: success without personal fulfilment is not genuine success.
