Force yourself not to procrastinate and you’ll get more done.

He has set himself a series of five rules to live by:

List my Most Important Tasks

.

Do the first things early

.

As soon as I start my day, I will meditate without procrastination.

Then read my novel.

Then do the first Most Important Task on my list for 20 minutes.

Those I’ll do without fail.

Get the other things done as early as the schedule allows

.

I can check email etc.

for 10 minutes, then go into my next 20-minute unprocratination session.

No wine at night if I mess up

.

I’m not perfect, so there might be times I’ll mess up.

When I do, I’ll take a small penalty no wine.
