I’m reflecting on changes that I made through the year.
1. Manage stress and get more rest.
This has always been a challenge for me, because I have a long to do list, but mindful of the stress that builds through the day, I have been taking more frequent breaks, and I avoid working late unless it’s absolutely necessary.
2. Get more exercise.
I did better this year than last. The Apple Watch has been a helpful resource.
3. Do things in the simplest way possible.
Increase productivity with a streamlined approach.
4. Accept when results are good enough.
When I finish a project, I often feel that I could have done it better. Occasionally, that’s true, but more often I waste time trying to redo it, and the results aren’t any better than the first version (and sometimes they’re worse). I could have invested that time into other projects. I’m going to try to avoid this mental trap in the future.
5. Travel more efficiently.
I was able to visit more places for less money by focusing on weekends and by flying when driving would have required more time off.
6. Mind your posture.
It’s particularly bad when I look at my phone. I’m trying to maintain better posture and spend less time on the phone.
