🍵📖 How to make time for everything | realistic 60 days reset routine

Summary

The presenter shares a flexible 60-day reset for managing studies, exam preparation, work, and personal tasks—without trying to do everything perfectly every day.

Key ideas

• Focus on three priorities. Replace a long to-do list with three main areas of responsibility, then use time blocking to reserve time for each. Tasks outside those priorities can wait if they don’t fit.
• Use small gaps effectively. Make use of short breaks between activities—such as lunch, waiting for a lecture, or travelling—to review material or handle small tasks. This can free up evening time.
• Match work to your energy. Save the morning, when concentration is strongest, for demanding tasks. The presenter especially recommends morning revision, since exams test recall and understanding—not simply how many lectures you’ve watched or notes you’ve made.
• Plan at four levels. Use a simple sheet of paper to set:
  1. Long-term goals, such as a 60-day plan
  2. Monthly goals
  3. Weekly goals
  4. Daily records of what you actually accomplished, rather than just a daily to-do list

Weekly habit trackers are another suggested way to build consistency.

• Set a minimum baseline. Decide on a realistic “minimum efficient day” for low-energy days. The presenter’s example is 30 minutes of active recall.
• Track progress and adapt. Record small wins, notice what is and isn’t working, and adjust the plan rather than relying on an overly rigid schedule.
