Sean Price Email, Sex & GTD The truth behind real personal productivity 1

6 We are insanely busy And cannot live without email

10 ~300 Billion emails/day ~ 90 Trillion emails/year Yet more than 90% is spam So why are you so busy?

11 Average session lasts 3 - 10 minutes Other *lucky* ones maybe 15mins up to an hour Avg. Woman will have sex ~3000 times *Simple maths* 9000 minutes of sex/lost productivity?

15 But what do I put in here? Truth be told - everything Be more productive by breaking down all of your tasks to little chunks to more easily manage.

14 Manage your personal Goals Keep on track of your professional projects

18 Even before email - they knew! Letters from a stoic - define your fears and goals A round man cannot be expected To fit in a square hole right away. He must have time to modify his shape. -- Mark twain Time is money -- Benjamin Franklin

16 How does this help me? Goals & Objectives Be more productive Have more sex Manage email (in that order?)

17 Kill Email Declare email bankruptcy Use Google Mail for better spam filtering Setup filter rules to manage email Use text expansion and template

12 Have more sex Endorphins - keeping you happy Serotonin - think quicker and clearer

19 Getting Things Done (GTD) Its not about the cool apps Or iPhones/iPads Literally its about YOU and your STUFF

20 Reducing your emails Leads to less stress Less stress Leads to more sex More sex Leads to more happiness More happiness Leads to better productivity

21 The truth is we do not have the same time and attention we once had Managing emails, interruptions and tasks will better help us to enjoy work, sex and life
