Audit your daily tasks

Add 1 for anything that gives you energy.

Subtract 1 for anything that drains energy.

Neutral things can be a 0.

At the end of your day, tally everything up and see if you end up with a positive or negative number.

To prevent burnout, try to end with a positive number - do more things that bring you energy.

Combine tasks if you consistently end the day with a negative number

This is what I did before I ever saw this Tweet.

If doing chores (-1) drain energy…

Combine them with something you enjoy, like listening to music or a podcast (+1).

The task will end up being neutral (+0) or positive (+1, since you feel productive).

What tasks will you combine?

Examples:

• Exercise + time with friends (by exercising with a friend)

• Reading (audiobook) + going for a walk

• Attending meetings + stretching

Reply to this email and let me know what you’ll combine!

See you in your inbox again next Monday!
