How to MULTIPLY your Time
This is the core of what we do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2X7c9TUQJ8 Helping everyone multiply their time is the USP of dwyl/time where other "productivity" or "time management" tools/apps only try to "manage" a list or calendar.
Old time management theories
Efficiency - doing things faster Prioritisation / organisation - doing the most important/urgent things first, balancing your time to choose what you do before something else
New
Multipliers - Thinking including importance/urgency and significance. Thinking about what will make things better in the future even if it's not the fastest way of resolving the problem today, it will make solving the same problem in the future faster from then on in.
Multipliers aim to remove things from their to do list by finding ways they won't have to do tasks again through:
- Eliminating tasks from their to do list (does this thing need to be done at all? stop something from needing to be done again)
- Automation (e.g. automating paying an online bill)
- Delegation (get someone else to do something)
E.g. When you have a coding problem you are stuck on, rather than finding your answer online or throught a colleague and moving on, you record the problem on github in a relevant repo so that others/ you can refer to what you learnt if you encounter it again. That way when someone else experiences the problem they will take less time to solve it because you took the time to record your learnings.
This is a visualisation of how you should deal with tasks (you try each option and stop at the one which is appropriate):
