I think this is truly the Holy Grail of productivity. How, on earth, do I get all this shit done? All this shit that is keeping me from realizing my dream. All this shit that will one day lead me to my ideal life. If only I could get shit done, then my life would be perfect.

I’ve read books and blogs on productivity and how to prioritize and simplify and get that shit done. I’ve tried working for really really long hours and working for short spurts of work. I tried “Big Rocks First” and “MIT’s” and “microtasking”. I’ve tried working in a dark office, a café, my kitchen table, outside and in bed.

I occasionally will do a weekly review and update my long-term goals.
I’ve downloaded a variety of productivity software - which I spend all my time figuring out how to use.

There’s one part of productivity that I’m always drawn to: simplicity.

[I just diverted from my writing to check out zenhabits.net - a blog about simplistic productivity - and found our how to get shit down. A giant list of lists.]

This article will take me a few hours to get through, but after I’m done, I’m really going to get shit done.
