2 — Make a free-time list

To-do lists are awesome.

But a to-do list means nothing if you don’t have the time to finish everything you have wanted. So instead of a to-do list, start with a free-time list.

  • List all the free time you can find in a work day. Usually, the time slot before dinner and right after are the best ones because you are not completely tired yet.
  • Each free time slot should be at least 30 minutes long. Otherwise, you won’t have enough time to reach deep work.
  • Your dinner or lunch should not be part of it. So don’t overload yourself. Instead, use those moments to take a break.
