? "Three Things" is probably the simplest self-management tool in the world, and its format is very simple. You can write it in your notebook and send a circle of friends or a WeChat group, as follows:
? Small happiness (small but certain happiness): Doing one small thing that makes you happy every day, even for five minutes, can make you look forward to the whole day. Thinking from the perspective of positive psychology, doing one "three things" every day can not only make you feel successful, but also make you feel happy.
? Why is a gadget that sounds so simple so important? Because it has many skills:
? 1. Think about it in the morning
? The best time to make it is when you just get up in the morning and the bed air just dissipates. At this time, the brain has not been screened by information and can distinguish between priorities. The sun is shining, and a busy day seems like a lifetime ago. At this time, a more reliable plan can be formulated.
? Advanced players can consider doing it before going to bed, so that they can have more time to think and reduce the consumption of willpower the next morning. Get up early and start directly from the most important thing.
? write down
? Many people also have the habit of getting up every morning to do something, but it is useless: there is no record, no release, no review.
? In the end, there is often a situation of "target loss". Goal attrition is an act of secretly lowering the goal standard because we don't want to admit the gap between plan and reality. For example, if you plan to memorize 100 words in your mind, but you actually memorize 50 words, you will comfort yourself that this is not bad.
? In this case, have you done "three things"? I said I didn't do it, but I didn't seem to do it. Many times, the next day's things are too busy to take care of. It was a long time before I saw this "important thing" again. The guilt of putting off something really important seems to be greater than the loss of not doing it yourself.
? If you don't finish it that day, can you think about whether it is necessary to finish it? If not, you can cross it out; If so, write it down in the plan for the next day. If this thing has been on your list for a week and has not been done, then you need to think about the nature of procrastination.
? Tip: Adding the number1100 to the front will make you more persistent and have a sense of accomplishment. You can start from 1/30 and stick to it for one month.
? Send out
? Up to now, it is still a self-time management tool, but once you publish it, it becomes a resource linking tool.
? What are the advantages of insisting on "sending out"?
? The first benefit is the execution brought by public commitment.
? No matter how busy I am and want to rest, I will still send three things. Over time, habits will become natural. A written thing, you are always embarrassed to take it out for three or five days in a row, so you have to say to yourself:
? "Pack to force is a curse. You must do it when you write! "
? Once you do it, you can't help but do it well, so if the plan is unreliable, you often stay up late and then write in retrospect:
? "I won't plan to kill you next time!"
? This kind of thing has come back and forth several times, and I have gradually developed two good attitudes:
? In this way, go back and forth between pursuing the completion rate of three things and the perfection rate of one thing. Over time, you can find the rhythm of making your own plan.
? Self-mastery and self-confidence come from these exercises. But remember the main point of public commitment-tell positive people to take action for at least a week before appealing.
? The second benefit is access to collaboration and resources.
? When sharing in the community, you can participate in topics of interest and link the same frequency resources; When sharing within the team, understand each other's work priorities, see the meeting of interest, and take the initiative to participate or cooperate; When friends share, they see what friends want to do, and they happen to have their own resources, so they can exchange resources and help each other.
? In this respect, I got more support from friends who punched in together. Although I haven't met each other in the community, I will feel that the other party has always been there and give you a strong support. One person can walk very fast, and a group of people can walk very far, walk together, empower each other and grow together!
? The third benefit is to bring leadership.
? You punch in to work every day and show your personal image in public. When you drive everyone to punch in, you gradually become a social node, calling on and influencing everyone to grow up actively. For example, community owners organize everyone to study together, and even create a brand-new mechanism to encourage everyone to output. This is his strong execution, which is actually constantly exercising his leadership.
? 1. Convenient and simple
? It's easy to punch in three things every day. You don't need to study or spend time. You can use the electronic version or the paper version, which is the best way to get started. You can start at any time. If you are busy at work and have no time to do other things, three things are also suitable for you.
? 2. Executive power
? If you insist on completing three things every day, your personal efficiency will be greatly improved. Because you will find it very simple and easy, and you will be happy to tick. ? Be sure to announce it, because the public promises to bring stronger execution!
? 3. Confidence and sense of accomplishment
? Do you often make a lot of plans, but if you can't finish them, you will become very depressed and keep putting them off. Punching in three things prevents this from happening, and because it only has three things and a small lucky link, you will feel that every day is smooth, happy, confident and fulfilled. Slowly add other more difficult plans and you can finish them step by step. With positive psychological incentives, people will stick to it more easily.
