HOUR 230: Happier podcast with Gretchen Rubin, Episode 112: Pick A Uniform (& Time Management Tip)
Today’s Tips:
#1: If you have a set uniform, or style of clothing that you will wear everyday, it can eliminate ‘Decision Fatigue’. You don’t have to wast any mental energy trying to decide what you will wear. This worked extremely well for Steve Jobs (Black shirt, jeans, skate shoes)
#2: You need to time all your activities, using a stopwatch, especially the activities you don’t like to to and you keep putting off. By doing this you can work out exactly how much time they take you to do.
For example, emptying the dishwasher will realistically only take 3 minutes, yet we’ll put it off because mentally it feels like it takes much longer.
Therefore you need to time all your activities: Moving the lawn, cleaning the pool, taking a shower, doing your hair, driving to work, doing the washing, hanging out the washing, and taking the washing off the line, etc etc etc.
When you know how much time each activity takes, you can strategically see how they fit into your busy, or possibly cluttered lifestyle. You will get more done by doing this.
