Create habits

A person only has a certain amount of “will power” available to them each day to spend on tasks.  Turning a task into a daily habit will stop the task requiring will power to do it.  Instead, the brain will accept the new behavior as a subconscious task.  Habits don’t require will power because they become automatic behaviors that the person does every day.  It typically takes thirty days to turn a new action into a habit.  Setup the beginning of your day to look something like this:
·         Wake up at 8:00 AM
·         Breakfast
·         Meditate for 10 minutes
·         Go for a run
·         Shower
·         Start concentration music and timer, then begin work on hardest most important task
·         30 minutes tea and drink break
·         Re-focus on hardest, most important task
·         Re-focus to finish the hardest most important task for that day
·         Check email
·         Break for Lunch

You will get more done by lunch time than most people can do in a whole day.  The “after lunch” part of the day can be spent on easier tasks, like emails, design, organization and maintenance tasks where less concentration is required.
