God Time Technique: Dr. Kabasawa Shion's time management techniques and brain prime time
I reviewed it before, but recently I decided to reassess my work style , so I read it again.
I'll be re-reviewing the book " God and Time Techniques psychiatrist Dr. Kabasawa Shion
As mentioned in the subtitle, how can you bring out your brain's full performance in a 24-hour period?
This is explained in a separate morning, afternoon, evening.
What is the God-Time Technique?
To put it simply, about doing work that requires concentration when you're highly focused .
To force yourself to concentrate will be an even more burdensome.
In my case, I'm sleepy so I force myself to drink coffee and say, "I'll do my best!", but that would be a huge burden.
There's a prime time for the brain
Everyone sleeps and refreshes their brain.
Therefore, the best brain performance is when you wake up in the morning.
And as you continue to incorporate stimuli from around you, your performance will decrease.
Therefore, it can be said that the prime time for your brain is in the morning
Do work that uses concentration in the morning
writer Stephen King writes in "About Writing."
He writes in the morning and does meetings and housework in the afternoon.
Professor Kabasawa also works to work in the morning to focus on focus, and in that case, the notification function on his mobile phone will also be turned off .
It's true that if you receive a notification while you're at work, you're distracted and don't make you feel better.
He also apparently does work in the afternoons that doesn't require much concentration, such as checking emails and meetings.
Sometimes it seems like light exercise is good.
About Professor Kabasawa Shion
In fact, Professor Kabasawa lived a life of "comparative patience" until he studied abroad in the United States.
But Americans go home at 5pm .
That's why I concentrate and work and finish at 5am.
Americans who clearly show the contrast between working time and private time
It seems that his way of thinking has changed, and Professor Kabasawa is now active as a writer.
Japanese people work overtime lazily, then go out drinking and complain.
What a waste of time?
The brain's prime time - how to get maximum performance -
As I mentioned earlier, about two or three hours after I wake up in the morning is "brain golden time."
And what's important "nitsumi", "chewing", and "exercise" .
Sunlight helps to normalize your body clock.
Chewing provides good stimulation to the brain.
Exercise also releases growth hormone and relieves fatigue.
So, it goes without saying that if your brain is in a clean state, it is recommended that you concentrate and work.
I used to be sleepy and lazy in the morning, and after lunch I was motivated to say, "Shall I do it soon?"
But I've stopped doing this now and try to concentrate and work in the morning.
I can't stimulate it in the morning
I commute by car, but I don't use radio or music at all.
This is to prevent unnecessary stimulation.
There are people playing music in their cars all the time since morning, and I think it's a shame.
How to reset your brain when you really want to concentrate and work in the afternoon
Even if you say you want to work in a focused morning, you may need to work in the afternoon due to the customer's circumstances
exercise a good way to reset your brain .
A light walk or jogging will produce dopamine and noradrenaline.
This will increase your concentration and allow you to work without any frustration.
Naps are also great for resetting your brain
Taking a nap is also very effective.
Is there a company that has recently adopted nap time?
The optimal time is 20-30 minutes . If you exceed that, your performance will be even worse .
Use a stopwatch to create a time limit
This is what struck me the most this time.
Get ready to work with a stopwatch.
It's true that if you do this, your concentration will increase under pressure and you can clearly handle each task (TODO).
Anyway, I want to make it more conform and avoid saying things like, "I'll do it later."
Summary Time Techniques for me
I've read a different part from the previous review.
First of all, you can concentrate in 15, 30, and 45-minute increments.
Your brain keeps getting worse when you wake up in the morning, do creative work in the morning .
Keep taking notes of the words that come up with you.
A nap and exercise are the best ways to reset your brain
Finally, the 15 minutes before going to bed is "principal time for memory .
It is said that reading what you want to remember 15 minutes before you go to sleep will help you organize and memorize it while you sleep.
There's no reason not to take advantage of these things.
What I actually do is:
- TV in the morning, don't play music
- develop programs in the morning -
take a nap during lunch
break - take an afternoon meeting
- do some light exercise at night
- read before going to bed
I am sure this alone will be delayed by 24 hours, which is completely effective from before.
I also write this blog for an hour before going to bed.
Everyone should learn 24-hour time techniques and make full use of their abilities.
This book is packed with such essences, so I highly recommend it!
That's it, Taiko!
