Old School Time Management

Old schoolAs an alt.netter I am always searching for better ways to make software. I am also searching for better ways to manage my time. At the moment I am going old school with my time management. Here is what works for me:

  • In the morning I clear a space on my whiteboard and write a heading 'Goals for today'
  • Under the heading I list the tasks I want to complete. If a goal can't be completed in one day it needs to be broken into a set of smaller tasks.
  • If a new goal comes up during the day I add it to the list.
  • When a goal is completed I stand-up, grab a marker and cross the goal out. This is suprisingly satisfying.
