Most of our time is spent by default, and we all wish for more hours in the day. We struggle to make time for what truly matters. But help is here!

Productivity experts Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky have developed a four-step framework that anyone can use, packed with over 80 tactics to help you design your day around the things that truly matter. These tactics include:

Choose a daily highlight: Instead of scrolling through your phone aimlessly, choose one thing to focus on each day and make it your highlight. This could be reading a book, practicing a hobby, or spending quality time with loved ones.

Be the boss of your phone: Take control of your phone usage and limit distractions. Turn off notifications, use apps to block social media, and set aside specific times to check your phone.

Stay out of social media infinity pools: Social media can be a huge time-waster, so avoid getting sucked into endless scrolling and notifications. Set limits on your social media use and focus on engaging with meaningful content.

Slow your inbox: Email can be a major source of distraction, so take steps to manage your inbox. Delete unnecessary emails, set aside specific times to respond to important emails, and use tools like Unroll.me to unsubscribe from unwanted newsletters.

Make TV a sometimes treat: TV can be a great way to unwind and relax, but it can also be a major time-waster. Instead of binge-watching shows, choose to watch TV only occasionally and focus on other activities during your free time.

Exercise every day (but don't be a hero): Exercise is essential for physical and mental health, but it doesn't have to be a grueling workout. Find activities that you enjoy, such as walking, yoga, or cycling, and make them a part of your daily routine.

Eat without screens: Screens can be a major distraction during meals, so try to eat without screens as much as possible. This could mean turning off your phone, avoiding TV, or eating at a table with your family or friends.

Go off grid: Take a break from technology and disconnect from the internet. This could mean going on a camping trip, taking a weekend getaway, or simply unplugging for a few hours each day.

Spend time with your tribe: Surround yourself with people who inspire and support you. Spend time with your family, friends, or community members who bring joy and meaning to your life.

Make your bedroom a bedroom: Your bedroom should be a sanctuary where you can relax and unwind. Make it a place that is comfortable, peaceful, and free from distractions.

With these tips and tricks, you can change your life and start living the life you've always dreamed of. Stop daydreaming about projects and activities that you'll get to someday and start that someday today!
