I definitely want to try this out. I already tried doing a time log, to see how I spent my time for a week, so now I want to try this out to see how much more productive I can be! 🙂

Yes!! Work always expands to the amount of time you have available! I love that you were able to find success with this method even years ago.

I started while a student at UCLA and needed a plan to get my schoolwork done and also get to my part-time job daily. I found that if I set aside a particular block of time on a particular day, I could complete the task during that time period. I think a lot of it is psychological, but who cares, if it works. For example, I would set aside three hours on Thursday in which to outline and draft a paper that was due on Monday, and that’s exactly how long it would take me! Then I would set aside two hours on Friday to revise and proofread, and that’s exactly how long it would take me. Finally, I would plan to type it at the library on Monday in a two hour block, and turn it in later that day. Of course, it’s much easier now with computers, but the mind will adjust its pace and performance to the time allotted to the task.

I’ve been creating a schedule for each one of us, then one for me. Something hasn’t been working with it, though, and I think it’s the rigidity of it. Thanks to this post, we’re trying time blocking to see if it offer the flexibility that we need. We’ll see how it goes!
