Hours, minutes, and seconds are the basic units of time, and he is extremely precise and absolutely fair to anyone.
Therefore, it is not time that determines the difference between people, but the utilization rate of time.
How you live a day, you will live a lifetime.
The author of "Why Elites Are Time Control" is a neurologist who can do work that only four people can do in a day, and he also has more than twice the free time of the average person.
His mastery of "God's time management" has made him a doctor and a best-selling author, publishing 3 books a year, updating social media, reading 20 books a month, and publishing book reviews.
In his book Why Elites Are Time Controlling, he gives readers a detailed account of how to live a productive life every day, and in his book, I come to a conclusion.
If you're in control of your time management, you're in control of your free life.
1. Enviable daily life
The author of this book, Shion Kasawa, started his career as a doctor in a public hospital.
I go to work on time every day, work overtime almost every day, and basically spend 14 hours in the hospital in a day, and it is usually more than 11 o'clock at night when I get home.
Long-term such high-intensity work, because of excessive mental pressure, made him suffer from "cochlear lymphedema".
That's when he realized that he couldn't work like this anymore.
For this reason, he decided to change his time management, and he used his professional knowledge and the latest brain science and psychology knowledge to explore a set of effective "God's time management techniques".
Now he works in a private hospital, only needs to sit in 6 times a month, writes in the morning, publishes 3 books a year, reads more than 20 books a month, and writes book reviews, in addition to updating online magazines, blogs, etc. every day.
Doing so much in one person seems to many people to be crazy.
But he still has a lot of free time every day.
He goes to physical exercise 4-5 times a week, goes to the movies twice, attends dinners, parties or events at least 15 evenings a month, and travels overseas more than 30 days a year.
These things that seem impossible to others are not a problem for him.
He lived a good life that everyone envied, and achieved the double flowering of career and life.
And that's thanks to his superb time management.
2. God's Time Management
It has to be said that the efficiency of each person's use of time is uneven.
Some people are particularly efficient in their use of their time, while others are the opposite. In the same time unit, some people can do 3 things, and some people may not do 1 thing well.
The author of this book is the one who does 4 times the amount of work and enjoys twice as much entertainment time as others.
The author writes in the morning, because the 2-3 hours after waking up in the morning is the golden time for the brain, which is suitable for focused work.
For example, writing articles, making proposals, and other such tasks require a high degree of concentration.
At noon, the author would go out to eat, because going out to eat is the best way to restart concentration.
If you choose to try new restaurants and new dishes, it can also help to boost your brain's vitality.
A 30-minute lunch break at noon is also essential for the author.
According to a study by NASA, a 26-minute nap at noon can increase productivity by 34% and concentration by 54% in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, 2-4 o'clock is a period of fatigue at work, and the author will change workplaces, or intersperse some non-focused work, or exercise for 5 minutes to restart concentration again.
The hard-working workers have finally gotten off work, and for many people, it has finally ushered in a moment of complete relaxation.
But for the author, the evening is the key to his second golden hour to reboot his brain.
The author exercised for 1 hour in the evening, and even in the evening, his writing state was no different from the golden time of the brain in the morning, which was equivalent to creating another 2 hours of productive concentration time.
The author calls this time period the second golden time of the brain.
Authors generally write in the morning and occasionally in the evening. But more time in the evening, the author used to improve his specialty.
3. How to spend the time saved
The author manages his time through the "God's Time Management Technique" to improve work efficiency and save free time.
He advises readers to use the time saved for personal investment, active recreation and enjoyment.
In the author's opinion, personal investment is mainly about investing in one's own expertise. In the case of the author, he works as a neurologist and writes in his spare time.
Writing is his amateur specialty.
In the beginning, he could only publish 1 book a year, but now he can publish 3 books a year. All come from his deliberate Xi of writing ability, which improves writing efficiency.
Secondly, in the author's opinion, people work hard during the day, and at night they should enjoy life, relieve stress, and regain energy.
While entertainment and enjoyment are essential, the results of entertainment and enjoyment are very different.
The author divides entertainment into passive entertainment and active entertainment.
Passive entertainment is entertainment that does not require concentration and does not require brains, the most typical is watching TV and watching videos.
Active recreation is reading, playing chess, playing sports, playing musical instruments, etc.
These active recreations not only improve concentration, but also allow people to experience the feeling of "flow".
In particular, German researchers have conducted a large-scale survey and found that the more people like to read, the easier it is to get the "flow" experience, while the people who regularly watch TV rarely get this experience.
However, it doesn't matter if you watch TV or watch videos occasionally, as long as you have an output after watching it, such as writing about your feelings about watching TV, touching your own opinions, etc., it becomes active entertainment again.
In fact, the best personal investment is to be obsessed with hobbies, because if we really like it, we will forget the time, forget ourselves, and not feel hard. And it's easier to make grades.
Just like me, reading and writing, since I started reading and writing, I get up at 5 o'clock in the morning every day, and I have never felt hard. And I sat for two or three hours, and I never felt that time was unbearable.
Because of love, what seems hard to others is not hard for me.
Write at the end
It is always said that the best time to plant a tree was ten years ago, followed by now.
Now that I think about it, elites seem to be planting trees all the time, and they never waste any time, but instead try to improve the efficiency of their time.
After reading the book "Why Elites Are Time Control", I began to reflect on my own time efficiency.
If you read this article, you may also be reflecting on your own time problem.
That's the beginning of getting better!
How you live a day will be how you live a lifetime.
Start your time management and strive for freedom in life!#Challenge 30 days to write a diary in Toutiao##0粉也可以获得创作收益啦#
