The trick I've used to work full time...

The trick I've used to work full time at LinkedIn, part-time at MySwimPro, and complete a master's degree while adopting a dog and getting married has been my ability to manage my time effectively." "" "Trick is perhaps a misnomer here because it's not just one skill. Among many things, it's the combination of my ability to set boundaries and stick to them, along with my efficiency in accomplishing work tasks, partnered with quick context switching capabilities. " "" "These skills help me get my work done within the time boxes I define and easily switch to the next thing once I run out of time, even if the work wasn't complete. The fact that my focus doesn't linger helps me quickly move on to the next task. " "" "Creating efficiencies in your work is always possible, so it's something to look for actively. Whenever you can start doing something with less effort and time, you free yourself up to do more somewhere else. By doing this relentlessly and persistently, your capabilities will snowball over time as your efficiency continues to rise #bendevtip
