This document provides an overview and summary of a book about overcoming procrastination. It discusses how procrastination is a common problem that wastes valuable time. While some claim they work better under pressure, research shows this usually leads to worse outcomes and more stress. The document examines some of the root causes of why people procrastinate, such as lack of motivation, fear of failure, or preference for more enjoyable distractions. It suggests planning and goal-setting techniques to help stop procrastinating habits and improve productivity.
Personal productivity is about achieving your own goals and priorities rather than output for a business. It is subjective and unique to each individual's goals for their life. To increase personal productivity, one should understand their own tendencies that reduce productivity like browsing social media, then work to replace unproductive habits with better ones, like taking short breaks to drink water instead of using social media. Managing one's environment and surrounding oneself with goal-focused people and items can also boost productivity. If productivity declines, ensuring sufficient rest, nutrition, and interest in goals may help rekindle it.

Workshop on time and workload managementSahil Jain
Tasks can go through various states over their lifecycle according to a task management system. They begin in a ready state and can then be assigned, worked on, forwarded, finished, failed, or terminated. Effective task management requires organizing tasks into a hierarchy, tracking their status and dependencies, and using tools like Gantt charts to visualize progress. The level of functionality needed depends on the complexity of the project, ranging from basic features for individuals to more advanced collaborative tools for complex multi-stage projects.

2. There is no doubt that for many people, life is simply too
overwhelming. Everyone is given the same 24 hours in a day,
but everything you do takes time.
To fit it all in, it’s imperative to prioritize, organize, and
delegate. We live in a hectic and complex world. It’s natural to
want to get a lot done and to be able to point to your
accomplishments. However, if you don’t slow down and set
some goals for your life, personally and work wise, things won’t
go as planned and will feel a lot more complicated.
3. GETTING YOUR
PRIORITIES RIGHT
When you want to simplify your life, the first thing that must
happen is to set your priorities. This works for both your
personal life and your work life.
Whether it’s a large project or a small one doesn’t matter.
Knowing how to choose where to start, how to organize it, and
what’s most important is essential to your success.
List Every Task You Need to Do
When you have things to do, it’s essential to know what you
are doing at any given time in the day. Listing out all the tasks
you need to do on any given day is an excellent way to figure
out how to organize each task and get it done the right way.
Think of this just like Marie Kondo’s method of organizing your
bedroom. You need to be able to see everything you have
before you can organize it and classify it.
4. Put Each Task in the Right Category
Try to put each task into a category that lets you know what it’s
for: personal or work. Then also identify whether this task is
important, urgent, or something else. This is going to help you
identify tasks that you can let someone else do, as well as
identify tasks that you’re doing that you can simply let go.
Move Urgent Tasks to the Top
When you notice that some of the tasks are urgent, put them
up at the top. For some people, it helps to separate work from
personal, but others prefer to just list tasks in the order by
which they’ll take care of them. You can make two lists, or you
can put it all in one if you have correctly identified whether it’s
urgent or not.
Determine the Value of the Task
One of the things you must look at for each task is its value.
This is easier to identify if it’s a work thing. You know that
putting an item that people can buy up for sale is going to make
you money, so it has a high value. But you also know that taking
your child to piano lessons is a high value task.
5. Know the Effort the Task Will Take
This is another important thing to note when you are organizing
your tasks. It also helps to look at effort versus value to help
classify a task. How long does something really take you to do?
How much money does it cost you to outsource it? Identify all
the resources any one task takes - whether it’s you, someone
else, money, or a product that helps with it (like maybe to do
this task you have to use specialized software that is expensive
to buy and hard to understand). In the last case, after studying
the situation you may determine to outsource, for example.
Determine Which Tasks to Cut or Outsource
Now that you have it all out in the open, it’s important to look
at the tasks and determine which tasks you don’t even need to
do at all, or that you can let someone else do.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s cleaning your house, cooking
your dinner, doing your laundry or outsourcing something at
work or in your business if you have one – the important point
is to let go of the things you do not need to do yourself when
it’s feasible to do so.
6. Don’t skip this step for simplifying your life. You can separate it
up if you want to, doing personal and work separately. But
whether we like it or not, work and life are inextricably
connected for most people today. Knowing how to prioritize at
home and work will make your life much more straightforward.
7. THE POWER OF BEING
WELL-ORGANIZED
There are clear benefits to being organized. Several studies
point to disorganization as being one of the main reasons
people suffer from anxiety at work and at home. When people
feel so busy, they feel as if they cannot function and that it is
not suitable for them - for their home life or for their jobs. As
you simplify your life and become more organized, you’ll reap
all these benefits.
You’ll Be Able to Focus More – When you are organized,
focusing on a task at hand is always more comfortable
because you’re giving yourself the time to focus. No one is
good at multitasking. Studies have proved time and again
that people just think they’re good at multitasking, but no
one is.
You’ll Become More Productive – When you plan,
organize, and systemize every aspect of your life, you’ll
become super-productive. You’ll get more done than most
people because most people don’t plan or organize in a
way that makes them more productive.
8. You’ll Have More Power over Your Time – While you’re
given the same 24 hours in a day as every other human
being is given, the fact that you know how to use the time
given is going to be a huge advantage. You’re going to feel
as if you have more time even though you don’t, due to
the organization of the time you have. For example, if you
take a shopping list to the store, you’re less likely to have
to waste time going back again.
You’ll Experience Less Stress – The appearance of less
clutter around your environment, at home and at work,
will automatically reduce your stress. The main reason is
that you’re avoiding time wasters looking for things.
You’ll Experience More Work-Life Balance – It’s easy to be
overworked these days. Most jobs don’t have as rigid work
times as they used to have. In fact, a lot of jobs want you
there as much as possible. However, when you get
organized and increase your productivity over everyone
else’s, no one is going to complain when you go to your
son’s ball game instead of working.
You’ll Get Better at Setting and Achieving Goals – When
you are organized, it helps you notice what is important
and what is not as important.
9. That means that you can set better goals because you
know what is most valuable to you and your life. Plus, due
to your organization, you will be able to implement and
take action better.
You’ll Feel More Positive Every Day – A funny thing
happens when your life is organized; you just start feeling
happy. The main reason is that you have fewer stress
hormones running through your veins. The other thing
that happens is that you begin to feel successful in life.
That makes everyone happy.
Your Creativity Will Increase – It might seem
counterproductive at first glance that organization and
planning can make you more creative, but it’s true. Your
mind cannot get into a creative flow if you are being
interrupted all the time by other things. By setting up your
environment to be creative, you will succeed.
You’ll Have More Energy and Excitement for Each Day –
Waking up and knowing that you can get through your day
and feel accomplished is going to make you feel more
excitement and energy for your life. You’ll want to tackle
the day because you know you will win.
10. You’ll Experience More Freedom – If you are currently
feeling as if all you do is work without any fun in your life,
and then you set up a plan to simplify your life, you will
automatically experience more freedom. Time freedom is
a great thing because once you realize you have time
freedom, the next thing you will realize is that you have
money freedom too. That’s powerful stuff.
Just think about how your mornings will be different if you’ve
organized everything the night before. Think about how
different dinnertime will be if you’ve organized and planned.
How fun will it be to take a Sunday to play golf instead of doing
laundry because you decided to outsource it? Your day may
look different from this one, but it will be simpler when you’ve
taken the time to bring organization into all aspects of your life.
11. THE ART OF DELEGATION
Mastering the art of delegation is one of the skills that can
totally change your life. The problem with most people,
especially women, is that they tend to think they’re the only
one who can do something and do it right. The thing to
remember, though, is that "right" is often subjective. Maybe
someone else can do it perfectly fine.
Let’s look at some factors that can help you master the art of
delegation so that you can simplify your life by leveraging other
people’s time.
Hand Off the Right Type of Tasks
First, get a handle on all the tasks that you do. When you can
organize and categorize them, you can look at ways to make
each task easier to accomplish.
In some cases, you can automate them with technology, in
other cases, you’ll need to find a person to handle that task for
you.
12. Give the Tasks to the Right Person
In addition to handing off the right type of tasks, you’ll want to
find the right person for that task. If you know someone who is
already good at that thing you need to be done, they’re the
most natural person to hire because they already know how to
do it.
You just give it to them and let them do it. If you find someone
who hasn’t done it before, you’ll have to train them. That is an
idea if your budget is lower but hiring an expert will make
everything simpler.
Get Out of Their Way
Once you pass the task on to someone else, get out of their
way. Don’t micromanage. Sure, give them some expectations
for the task. For example, if you hire someone to clean your
home, make sure to let them know about the things you deem
important for the cleaning to be considered sufficient to you,
then let them do it.
Most service providers already have a specific method for doing
that task based on their expertise, so it’s always best after
you’ve agreed on deliverables to let them get on with it.
13. Use Your New-Found Time Productively
It’s not enough to just delegate a task to someone else, and
that’s that. Instead, use the time you gain to do something
productive. If you use that time to do something important to
you such as spend time with your kids, your partner, friends –
or to do money-making tasks, you’re going to feel so much
more productive and enjoy delegating more.
If someone else can do something faster, cheaper, and the
same quality (or close) as you, why wouldn’t you delegate? If
you are feeling overwhelmed because you are doing too much,
there is no point in continuing. Instead, invest in training and
delegating to others because you’ll not only improve your own
life but maybe theirs too.
14. AUTOMATION THAT WILL
SAVE YOU TIME
One way to become more productive is to automate the things
that you can. Today there is an enormous amount of
automation that you can do, both at work and in your personal
life.
Let’s go over a few ideas that might make a massive difference
in your day, making it that much more simplified using
technology and good habits.
Set Up Your Computer Properly – Your computer can
maintain itself with the right additions of software.
Set up your computer so that it automatically updates,
automatically checks for viruses, and keeps the computer
clean. Whether you have a Mac or a PC, there are options
for you to learn about.
15. Pay Your Bills Via Your Bank’s Bill Payment System –
Now, most credit cards and bills today let you set up
automatic payment options directly through them, but
setting them up via your bank’s system is a better and
more organized way to do it because if you need to change
something it’s all in one place. You can automate the
payment process, or you can simply go online and click to
pay when you’re ready. Most banks today offer this
service free too.
Automate Meal Planning with a Dinner Kit – If you find
that meal planning and shopping take too much time, you
can automate much of this by signing up for a meal kit
delivery service. They will then send you an email before
each shipment, letting you now the additional things you
need to buy. Then you can set up an order via
Instacart.com for your local grocery store too, and even
automate some of that via Amazon’s Subscribe and Save
options.
Go Paperless – If you have a lot of paperwork you’re
always going through, try to find a way to go paperless.
Paperless files are easier to find with a search than other
types of files. Plus, you can set it up to do some of this
automatically if you learn how to use your computer.
16. On Mac, it’s called "Automator on the Mac," and on
Windows, it’s called "Actions on Windows." You can also
learn how to use Zapier.com to automate a lot of filing
functions, both at home and at work.
Learn to Use Your Smartphone – Everyone has this
wonderful device today called a "smartphone" that has
more computing power than the computer that sent
people to the moon the first time. If you learn to use the
tools such as list keeping, shut on, and shutoffs, and so
forth, you’ll be more productive.
Record Shows – If you like to watch shows on your
television, get a DVR or other system that enables you to
automatically record the shows you want so that you can
watch them on your down day instead of when they come
out.
Habituate Organization – Once you spend time organizing
to simplify your life, you can make it feel automated if you
just turn organization and cleaning into a habit. This is how
most people learned to brush their teeth. It became a
habit. Throwing away your trash each time you get a fresh
cup of coffee can become a habit too.
17. Incorporate little habits into your day, and it’ll feel as if
everything is happening automatically.
Make Your House Smarter – Today you can have a house
that unlocks the door for you, turns on the light, preheats
the oven and so forth – all from a distance and at your
command. If you can afford to invest in this time-saving
technology, it is a great way to ensure that things get
done. You can even water your lawn or house plants using
automation technology.
Hire Household Help – Even if you can’t technically
outsource some of your tasks at work to automate
something, you can at home. Automate your household
chores by hiring someone to do it for you every single
week the same day.
Create Systems – Anything that you know must be done
regularly needs a system. Whether that’s paying bills,
bookkeeping, or taking a bath, it all happens regularly.
Setting up systems that use a combination of technology,
delegation, and habit creation will go far in getting more
organized through automation.
18. When you look at new opportunities to automate something,
first think about the time that it takes you to accomplish it,
what your opportunity cost is for continuing to do something
manually that can be automated in some way, and the value of
that task. Even if you only shave an hour off your day through
automation, remember that’s 365 hours a year. That’s over
fifteen days. You can accomplish a lot in fifteen days.
19. TAKING CONTROL OF
YOUR FINANCES
One of the most critical aspects of your life to simplify is your
finances. Taking control of the money that comes in and goes
out of your household is imperative. Many people believe that
their lack of money contributes to their complicated and
overwhelming lives, but what if you’re just not keeping your
money organized so that it works as hard as it can for you? Let’s
look at ways that you can take control of your finances to make
your life simpler.
Define Your Financial Values and Establish Goals –
Knowing what is important to you about money can help
you make the best goals. It doesn’t matter how "pie in the
sky" your goals seem right now; having those goals and
then developing a plan to get there is what’s going to
make it simple.
Assess Where You Are – Once again, you have to make a
mess before you can streamline and simplify. Go through
your entire financial life and find out where you are.
20. What are your debts, what are your expenses, what is
coming in, and what do you have saved? Don’t judge
yourself when you go through this; just get it all down in
writing.
Keep Fewer Accounts – Now that you know what you
have, notice if you have several checking and saving
accounts. There are few reasons to have a lot of accounts
unless you need to spread the money around due to
banking insurance. But if you’re like most people, you can
get by with one checking account and one savings account.
The exception is if you have your own business, because
then you need a separate account for business. Fewer
accounts mean less time maintaining them and less
opportunism for criminals.
Go Paperless – Many offices are proud of being paperless
today, and you can do that at home too. Set up all your
bills for paperless billing, which means they’ll go to your
email inbox. The other option is that if your bank has bill
paying options, they often also have e-bill options that you
can easily set up with a few clicks online.
Drop the Credit Cards – If you have more than one credit
card, put all but one of them on ice.
21. Use the card with no fee and the lowest interest rates and
pay it off each time you get the bill. Or use the card with
the most points for travel so you can get free travel just for
paying bills. The point is, pick one and use only that one.
Pay Off Your Consumer Debt – If you are currently
carrying consumer debt balances on revolving credit
accounts, find a way to pay them off quickly. If you can
consolidate them onto one card while paying it off, that
will make things a lot easier.
Invest in Funds Over Individual Stocks – It takes a lot of
time and research to invest in individual stocks. You can
instead save time and make it simple by investing in funds.
For example, they might be called something like "the
2045 fund" if that is about the time you expect to retire.
The fund automatically adjusts its stock ratio based on the
year of the fund to help you avoid risk.
Use Cash More Often – Instead of using cards to pay for
stuff when you go out, use cash. Cash helps stick to a
budget; plus you don’t have to worry about balancing your
account, card number theft, or receipts.
22. Let Go of Services You Don’t Need – Look at any
automatic payments coming out of your accounts. Think
about whether you really need them or not. Are you using
them as you thought you would? When is the last time you
used it? For example, you may be surprised to find out
that now that Game of Thrones is over, you never use your
HBO GO subscription. Those few bucks can add up.
Know How to Make Goals – Learn the right process for
goal making when it comes to money. Goals need to be
SMART, which means that they should be specific,
measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-based. Also,
write down your goals and set up steps to reach the goal
that you put into your calendar.
Know If Renting or Owning Is Right for You – It might
shock you to know that home ownership really isn’t
financially best for everyone. For some people, renting is a
lot better. This is especially true if you’re not sure where
you want to live for the next five to ten years. You can
simplify your life by renting too, because you won’t be
responsible for unexpected repairs.
Add Passive Streams of Income – Studies show that most
rich people have multiple streams of income.
23. Even if you don’t care about the word "rich," the fact is
that adding a passive income stream can really help you
with your financial life. There are many ways to earn
passive income today, from rental investments to selling
digital and affiliate products online.
Stop Learning and Start Implementing – If you’ve read a
lot about finances in the past but have yet to do any of the
things you’ve learned, take this advice and run with it.
Implement something. Pick one thing and just go for it.
When you have success on that, you’re going to want to
do the next thing.
Learn the 50/30/20 Budgeting Model – If you don’t have
any experience creating budgets yet and tend to live by
the seat of your pants, check out this budget model for
your personal finances. It’s an excellent way to start out
because it will ensure that you always really have enough.
Here is a 50/30/20 spreadsheet you can use:

and-save
Taking control of your finances is less about doing without, and
more about doing more with what you have. The truth is,
money problems are often just a lack of attention to the topic.
24. If you tend to buy coffee at the shop daily, go out to dinner
without a plan, and have no idea how much you owe or earn,
it’s going to be much harder to simplify your life. But when you
know what you have, what’s coming in, what’s going out, and
why and how, it’s going to make everything that much simpler
to manage.
25. TIPS FOR SAYING NO
One reason people often feel overwhelmed at home and at
work is their inability to say no.
Part of this is well-planned-out socialization that is designed to
create amazing worker bees in society, but in reality, all this
does is cause people to do more than they need to and become
overwhelmed with life. You really can (and probably should) say
no more than you do. Here’s how.
First, ask yourself three questions:
1. Does it align with my values?
2. Do I really have the time?
3. Do I really want to do it?
If any of these questions is no, then you should simply say no. It
doesn’t have to be no on all three counts. It can just be no
because you don’t want to say yes. However, often, there are
other reasons.
26. No Reason Needed
You don’t have to give any reason at all. You can just say no. No
is a full and complete sentence by itself. If you do want to give a
reason, then you can, but it’s not necessary to do it. Here are a
few "no sentences" that you can use if you want to.
> "Oh, thank you for asking, but there is no way I can make it
work right now."
> "I’m sorry, but I can't do that because it goes against my
religious world view, but thanks for asking."
> "Thank you for asking, but I am not the right person for this
job. Have you thought of asking Amy, this is really in her
wheelhouse?"
> "Not right now. I already have priorities scheduled for that
day and time. Thank you."
> "I can’t do that, but if you can do this, then I can do it this way
at this time."
Practice saying these sentences and add some of your own that
you can use.
27. You probably already have some experience with being asked
to do things. You may have said yes when you wish you said no.
Practice saying no for the next time.
Let Go of Guilt
Remember that your upbringing may have caused you to feel
bad when you say no. It’s just natural because when you were
two every time you tried to touch that pretty vase, Momma
said "NO!" and you may associate no with something terrible. It
happens to all of us. However, like Momma had to say no to
you for a good reason, you can say no to anyone about
anything without feeling guilty.
If you say no in a respectful way, there is never a reason to feel
bad about it. You must protect your time because it’s precious.
Do things you really believe in, that you have time for doing,
and that you really want to do.
28. HOW TO LET GO OF
TOXIC PEOPLE
Just like saying no simplifies things, as you assess your life, you
may find that you also have toxic people in your life that you
need to let go of. Toxic people tend to create tons of drama in
their lives and those who associate with them. Less drama in
your life is always a good thing.
Give Yourself Permission to Say Goodbye – When you
realize someone is toxic and causing unnecessary drama or
issues in your life, you need to give yourself permission to
say goodbye to them. You are not obliged to stay in a
relationship that is only painful, whether blood or not.
There are no prizes at the end of life for doing so.
Reduce or Eliminate Contact – The moment you accept in
your mind that the person is toxic, try to reduce or
eliminate your contact with them. For some people, this is
as far as you’re going to get to go if they are someone you
must see, such as a co-worker or boss. For others, this is
the start of getting them out of your life.
29. Don’t Ask for or Give an Apology – There is likely no real
reason to discuss anything with the person. Doing so often
doesn’t solve a problem, and they’re not going to say
they’re sorry unless they feel they can manipulate you.
You’ve had enough experience with the person to realize
that you don’t need this type of closure. It’s not happening
anyway.
Put More Time in Your Healthy Relationships – Now that
you have some time freed up, not just in reality but in also
your mind space, start putting more time into your healthy
relationships. Think more about them, do something for
them, and let them do something for you.
Experience Your Emotions but Move On – It’s okay to feel
sad, and even bitter for a little bit. Let yourself feel the
emotions, but it’s important to move on from the past.
The entire point of eliminating a person from your life who
is toxic is not to let them take up any space in your life that
will affect future actions, including in your mind.
Learn from the Experience – One thing that is important
to do if you face this issue is to figure out how the person
got into your life to start with.
30. If it’s work or a relative, that’s understandable, but if you
picked this person as your friend (or spouse) - why? And
how can you avoid doing that in the future?
Even if the toxic person is your parent or a relative, the
experience of letting go of them will be a blessing in your life
more than you may think. When someone is genuinely toxic,
they won’t change no matter how much you beg, so letting
them go will help you make your life less stressful and a lot
more successful.
31. WAYS TO USE SOCIAL
MEDIA EFFECTIVELY
One thing that can take up a lot of time is social media. If you
really want to simplify your life, you can use social media in a
way that doesn’t cause more chaos. Let’s look at the different
ways to use social media more effectively, whether for work or
play. Simplifying your online life can really make a huge
difference in your overall happiness and success level.
Pick Just One – If you must use social media, choose the
platform that you like best and stick to that one. Maintain
profiles on the others without updating them just in case
something ever happens, but most of the time you’ll be
able to use just one for what you need to stay connected.
Use Automation Tools – If you do need to use more than
one account (for work or business, for example), find the
right tools that enable automation and consolidation of
accounts into one dashboard to make it faster to check up
on the accounts.
32. Create Your Own Dashboard – If you need to use more
than one social account and you don’t want to pay a
monthly fee for automation, you can create a dashboard
on your computer that enables you to click into your social
media faster and more easily than one at a time.
Organize Connections – Differentiate your connections by
organizing them into groups or lists depending on what
the platform allows. When you organize your connections,
it’s easier to send messages to update them or check their
updates when you have it on your schedule.
Train Your Friends – It’s not very productive to be chatting
with your friends or family all day. If you’re working, turn
off notifications other than emergencies. If you stop
answering your friends and family during the day when it’s
not an emergency, they’ll stop bothering you.
Turn It Off When Not in Use – When you are not actively
on your social media platforms, turn them off so that you
aren’t checking constantly. For some people who like using
PCs still, one way to do this is to get social media off your
phone and keep it only on your home PC.
33. Choose Your Time Window – Don’t check social media
continuously. Even if you use it for work, don’t check it all
the time. Pick times during the day to check it, set a timer,
and stick to that. This way it won’t get out of hand,
especially when you are trying to be productive.
When you train yourself to turn off distractions so that you can
focus on what you’re doing at that time, you’ll realize that you
don’t need social media to be on all the time. A few minutes of
focused connection is a lot better than random interruptions to
your workflow or your time with your family and friends.
34. CONCLUSION
Simplifying your life is all about finding what works best for you
to ensure that you are at your most productive while also being
as stress-free as possible. You should not feel overwhelmed
often in your life. It’s normal during times of transition to be
overwhelmed, but it should not be a permanent condition.
If you find that you are more overwhelmed than not, it’s time
to find a way to simplify your life. What are you waiting for?
What is the one way you plan to make your life simpler in the
next twenty-four hours?
