MONEY CLA—No, Shut Up, Fiat Job Rules/How Do You Spend Your Time?
2091 sats \ 5 comments \ @denlillaapan 21 Nov econ
I've enjoyed writing MONEY CLASS posts over the last month (starting with #733580). I count 13 over the last 32 days for a nice average of two-and-a-half posts a week. That's probably a rate I can keep. ~econ readers have zapped like crazy (around 20k for #773070 and #764988) and we've gotten good convos and spread some nice monetary theory+history to the Stackers. FEEDBACK ALWAYS WELCOME, etc.
Like most people, I also hate my fiat job. Today it consumed ALL of me—with a migraine on top. Would much rather read and write about money all day than what the fiat clownsters have me do. (And I need more corn and/or fiat price of corn needs to be considerably higher before I can ditch it—hashtag @realBitcoinDog #776680)
So here's my post for y'alls today: get me your best time-management tricks:
  • how do you get through your days?
  • how do you juggle family, pets, passion projects, workouts, fiat jobs, and bitcoin time?
  • how do you manage to ace and maximize your time?
double-podcast speed, sacrifice sleep, work 8h fiat job in six hours? GIMME GIMME GIMME!
I, for one, clearly just suck at it juggling life.
Until next time, friends.

Never sacrifice 8 hours of sleep! Take full 8 hours! Establish a morning routine with exercise, news and food. It will optimize your time management. Do not sleep in. Do not be lazy. A nice routine start will boost the morning and the day!

Hahaha! 6 hours of fiat work for 8? Lean into the 80-20 rule. You should be able to get 80% of your work done in one day a week. That's already a B. How much more is anyone asking of you.
Don't sacrifice sleep. That's high time preference behavior.

I dunno... I assume some of y'alls can do work at 1.25x speed.

So, you're saying I should be able to get 80% of a week's work done in only 6 hours. Challenge accepted.

Great thought-provoking questions
At my workplace, I try to do work that is uniquely qualified for me. So, I become intrinsically motivated and don’t give too hoots about how other people perceive my efforts. It can be quite draining to suit my thinking into the mould of my organisation’s strategic thrust.
Personally, I find ways to help me feel that I have control over my life. That’s why I post my past photos and book reviews almost compulsively here. Every time I do so, I delete it from my possessions - and enjoy that rush of dopamine. I aim to travel light through life
What’s your day job btw?
