thrust of the 3-3-3 Method is that every working day, Burkeman says, he will:
-
“Spend three hours on my most important current project, having defined some kind of specific goal for the progress I aim to make on it that day”
-
“Complete three shorter tasks, usually urgent to-dos or ‘sticky’ tasks I’ve been avoiding, usually just a few minutes each (I count calls and meetings here too)”
-
“Dedicate time to three ‘maintenance activities,’ things that need my daily attention in order to keep life running smoothly”
