Today was my first day that I've planned out in 15-minute increments. I got the idea from #LouisRossman's recent video where he took the #AspieTest. Below are my thoughts:
- i got about twice as much done as any other day. This was planned, yes, but it worked better than I expected.
- i actually happened to wake up an hour earlier than expected, so this led me to treat my plan as more of an ordered to-do-list than a strict regimen. Not sure what the difference would be.
- my pacing was off. I put multiple computer related tasks back-to-back, then several more physically demanding ones with lunch smack in the middle. In the future I'll try to mix it up.
- at a few points I would start staring into space and worrying about other things. I quickly remembered that I've already planned out my day so a future me can worry about it. This was fine but imo sets a bad precedent - we've all had bad bosses. I don't want to be one, even to myself.
All in all, this experiment was a huge success. I'm a little scared - how much will Focused-Me accomplish? How can we keep his power level contained?
