Structured Procrastination
I'm finding Marc Andreessen's new blog very entertaining. Today's post on productivity is fun and includes a section on my favoured productivity technique, structured procrastination:
The gist of Structured Procrastination is that you should never fight the tendency to procrastinate -- instead, you should use it to your advantage in order to get other things done.
Generally in the course of a day, there is something you have to do that you are not doing because you are procrastinating.
While you're procrastinating, just do lots of other stuff instead.
