Many of us could use some refreshing ideas on how to make the most of our time, like these:
You're holding the things you think you need to get done in your head all at once.
This overwhelms you.
But it's in the mind.
In reality, all we ever have is the one thing right in front of us.
Identify your next 1-3 priorities.
Don't think them. Write the suckers down.
That's all you need to know to have a fighting chance of being one of the most productive people you and I know.
So many of us get one whiff of boredom, break into a sweat, and immediately throw on Netflix.
Then we proudly shout from the rooftops: 'I'm rarely bored! Look at me! I'm living my best life!'
Shut it, Sally.
Boredom is vital. It's the beginning of insight if you had the balls to sit with it for more than a second.
Then watch as your creative juices transmorph from a crawl to a torrent.
A big issue with time-wasting is that we don't know what on God's Green Earth we're supposed to be doing with our time.
Newsflash: neither does anyone else.
You need to design your vision and check in with it daily.
So consider this: what are 5 super dope awesome things you'd LOVE to create within the next five years?
Return here often, and you'll grow to love that little rush you get behind your belly button because you're working on something meaningful.
What mumbo bullshit is Alex on about now?
I'm talking about becoming a king at getting out of the way of our own thoughts.
It's insane how much time we waste worrying.
Stop allowing your thoughts to massage you into a worried stupor like a Thai woman looking for a happy ending.
It means getting into the badass habit of letting go of pesky thoughts that aren't serving you and revisiting the flow of the moment.
I dumped most of the carbs from my diet, including gluten, doughnuts and sugar.
It's amazing how this has impacted my energy levels.
These daily ups and downs aren't conducive to productive and sustained output.
It makes a huge difference.
Now, for the most part, I have a steady flow of energy that enables me to do more without grinding my teeth.
Reduce the bad carbs at least, and see what this does for your energy.
Few things save time more effectively than making yourself accountable.
This means creating a strong, internal emotional pull to completing things.
More powerfully, we can hire a coach or work with an accountability partner to ensure we feel bad if we fail to show up and complete when we said we would.
'Sure thing, Nathan, I'll make sure you check in daily with me.'
Tick.
Now you will find it difficult to hide when you said you'd appear.
The simple act of deciding to be bold will change everything.
I sometimes find myself in a wimpy decline wondering why I don't feel like doing anything.
Most of us navigate life on the back foot.
We're hesitant. We're unsure.
We rely on our feelings as guides. B
ack foot living isn't living.
Decide, right now, to live boldly.
Be assertive in all that you do.
Throw yourself into everything with a disgusting level of gusto.
Do more.
Those who adopt Mr bold bear as their spirit animal reap the rewards.
Take small steps to save time, so we can enjoy your impact.

"I lied about my basic beliefs in order to keep a prestigious job. Now that it will be zero-cost to me, I have a few things to say."
We know that elite institutions like the one Flier was in (partial) charge of rely on irrelevant status markers like private school education, whiteness, legacy, and ability to charm an old white guy at an interview.
Harvard's discriminatory policies are becoming increasingly well known, across the political spectrum (see, e.g., the recent lawsuit on discrimination against East Asian applications.)
It's refreshing to hear a senior administrator admits to personally opposing policies that attempt to remedy these basic flaws. These are flaws that harm his institution's ability to do cutting-edge research and to serve the public.
Harvard is being eclipsed by institutions that have different ideas about how to run a 21st Century institution. Stanford, for one; the UC system; the "public Ivys".
As a dean of a major academic institution, I could not have said this. But I will now. Requiring such statements in applications for appointments and promotions is an affront to academic freedom, and diminishes the true value of diversity, equity of inclusion by trivializing it. https://t.co/NfcI5VLODi
