[1]What Systems Keep You Effective?, (Sat, Jun 9th):

    Previously I discussed [2]What's On Your Not To Do List as a means
    to remain focused on priorities. I never fear running out of work in
    [3]cybersecurity. Instead, I worry that our focus does not always
    stay on the most critical issues. Today I want to highlight several
    techniques I use to help remain effective.

    Saying no

    Over and over again

    No can be a complete sentence

    Opportunity cost associated with time spent on other items

    Calendar Margin

    Create space for unexpected tasks

    Make appointments for what matters most

    Goal tracking system

    As an achiever, I enjoy checking items off my "to do" list

    [4]Evernote as a repository to hold ideas for future research

    Keep from cluttering up my brain

    [5]A physical planner

    Found tremendous value in weekly reviews

    Focus on what I accomplished

    And what needs even more focus

    Each of these tactics serves to help keep me focused on what matters
    most. What hacks do you use to stay effective throughout your busy
    day? Let us know in the comments section!

  Other than the use of Evernote (I of course use Emacs & [10]Org mode),
  I do or intend to do all of this listed here. I like the "Calendar
  Margin" as something I am accidentally doing and could probably
  improve.
