2015 Motivation System Memo

"Is it likely to be completed in four hours?" should have the option of "I don't know" to (2015-07-09)

Demotivation due to lack of estimation

2015-07-19

Chrome extension, instead of blocking the screen, why not replace Ads like Facebook, Twitter, etc.

I personally started using Facebook messages to communicate in a business-like manner, and since I turned off the extension

We need to solve the problem of judging people as demotivated just because they are on Facebook when they are not demotivated.

Is it good to have someone to interact with?

What would you like to be able to do?"

First, build a prototype that runs locally, not as a web service.

The source code is on bitbucket.

I have an idea, but I haven't had the time to make any progress.

Wife's advice

Vigorous physical activity

change one's environment

Take a walk.

Do you know what you're going to do?"

Cases where you have decided what you were going to do but you are not motivated to do it.

Cases that are struggling with whether they should do what they were going to do or change their policy Need assistance in deciding on a policy

One?"

Cases where neither Yes nor No is possible

'Is there another way to get a similar effect?'

Cases where the expected "effect" is ambiguous.

"What do you hope will happen by doing that task?" should be asked

Cases where there is another method that "might" work, but we are not confident that it will work.

It is not a "task that will definitely produce results if you do it," so of course it is.

I don't think we can do it." →Why? →Because we have made a major policy change" → so what? Is that a fact or an interpretation?

If true, "give up" or "another way."

Either way, "it's impossible to complete it by the deadline," or "maybe we'll get lucky and come up with another way to complete it."

Maybe we should move from "how to do it by the deadline" to "can we move the deadline or negotiate to change what we're going to do?

This advice is not being given right now, but it would be kind to give it. It's easy to get narrow-minded.

If it's interpretation and not fact, you have to try.

I need motivation.

Nothing to do? →No, I'm doing everything else.

What's important? →X

Could it be done in 4 hours?

Sleepy and unmotivated

Are you sleepy because you are physically sleep deprived, etc., or are you sleepy because you are bored with what you are trying to do now?

Move your body, do something completely different,

I spend my time doing unproductive and depressing things.

I can't help but think about the time I spent.

The use of that time was beneficial, I was able to rest, I had time to think about what I needed to do.

Task selection consulting

Do tasks with fixed deadlines in the order of nearest deadline.

A bit like [trade-offs between use and exploration

If the nearest deadline is far enough away, you should try doing a few non-deadline tasks

What is enough: Estimated and safe area.

A little bit of work will tell you how much longer it will take.

I don't know what to do with the first one pomodoro.

Just make "thinking about what to do" the first pomodoro.

Thinking" is an ambiguous task

Perform a writing method to create a WBS

5-minute write-out method

Deliverables, procedures, and schedules, divided by

The system's "You can't decide which is important?" is a judgmental output.

Can't decide which one to start with?" Change it to?

[Should" is harmful.

It is difficult to estimate the damages of "let's start with the ones that cause the most damage."

Do you have a set deadline? ask

I'll do them in the order of closest to the deadline.

Prioritize those that need to wait for others to work.

I don't know what to do, so I'm holding off." Holding off won't change anything.

Doing something in Eyre.

Do not neglect to check the situation

2015-11-24 Three-day seminar

Eliminate "should I do X first" kind of anxiety.

Give a rationale for "why it's okay to do it then."

Create a situation of "we have to do this now."

Not with a TODO list, because there is no rationale for choosing X out of multiple tasks.

It could be in the form of doing what the motivation system chooses to do.

That's exactly what this note does.

I made an appointment to read and summarize the notes I wrote in 2015.

Make sure you don't have a destination to send it to when you think, "Oh no, I want to put it off."

Do it now or don't do the task in the first place.

Divided by principle time period

Clarify the "don't do it now."

Write down everything you "do" that takes more than 30 seconds.

You may find it hard to write all

About 140 things to write about all of them, and 20-30 things that change every day.

This seems to depend on the person and the type of task.

Once made, it takes about 7 minutes to rewrite the changing points and make a list for the next day.

This also varies from person to person, but it is a good idea to actually measure and figure out how long it will take.

Q: How do I make this list?

keep a log

Average of three logged

Tasks that can't be logged three times can't even be estimated in the first place.

Estimate what you can estimate.

Tasks without deadlines are placed before tasks with deadlines.

If I'm not motivated to look at it when I can least afford it, I won't do it.

Write what you are doing now

Interruptions are first written on paper.

Putting the reopening in the task ahead of time

estimate

Record start and end

Predicted, measured, and terminated

self-absorption

Glucose motivation is regained.

Believing it is inexhaustible makes it inexhaustible.

conditional plan

Taskshooting is a type of this.

Zeigarnik effect

It doesn't happen when you plan for it.

Taskshooting is a type of this.

Teach others Positive incentives Increase intrinsic motivation

By remembering why you are doing what you are doing.

2016-01-15 Productivity of the task of reading

skim

Read only part of it

Better than not reading either.

Negative if you feel obligated or in pain.

How to provide motivation

turning a movie, comic, etc. into a (computer) game
