Any time management tools for people in full-time employment?
Hi! I'm in full-time employment. I want to start my side project after work. Are there any time management tools for people in full-time employment?
Simple is better. I found Toggl and Timing app but they seem to be too much for me.
My main challenge is staying focused and avoiding social media and other distractions.
I split my time between client contract work and my startup.
What's helped me is getting a timer (like a pomodoro timer) for my desk. A physical version of https://tomato-timer.com/
When I am struggling to focus I set it for 25 minutes I turn off my notifications on my phone and laptop and commit fully to dedicate that chunk of time to whatever it is i'm doing. When the time is up I either take a 5min break or continue if I'm in flow and haven't even noticed that the 25 mins are up.
This tool seems great, but how do you manage these chunks of time?
I think I will get the feeling of accomplishment when reviewing these chunks of time :)
