Thanks for the article. I've found that one of the biggest problem is that it is too tedious to use tools like calendar and to-do-lists. It occurred to me that is why busy (and rich) people hire personal assistants that they can just "tell" what they need to get done. I've taken this idea and created a service that gives you a free personal assistant that you can email or text with. You can check it out at: https://www.joggleme.com

thanks again,

I like number 10 and need to try that out. My modus operandi is the wrong way around - check email before I get down to work...25 minutes later....

Great blog - and in response to Jaochim - yes, it is all about changing behavior, none of it is about technology or tools. Christine Giri

All the things you mentioned make a lot of sense however very difficult to manage unless one changes behaviour and attitude and become serious about life. Bravo! good work.
