Time blocking with Google Calendar
Time blocking is a technique where you ringfence areas of your calendar so that you get can a certain task accomplished during that period. I find it a very useful technique indeed.
I like to start my day with a to-do list (typically a written one) as, aside from any meetings I have booked in, this gives me a structure to hang my day off. However, sometimes, even with a to-do list, I sometimes find that tasks are still not getting done – this can easily happy with a big task which you need to be very focussed on. In such cases, time blocking comes into its own.
Here is a video which explains all about it from a great channel of practical tips I’ve found called Simpletivity:
If you have any other tips, feel free to let me know.
