What you said about restricting social media is true. I have been able to do more by deleting social media apps.
I don't use my system my system a lot but I have restricted social media to only browsers on my phone. The frustration of click back and forth makes me spend less time there cos now I only go to social media if it's important.
Also, the story of the teacher at the beginning because explains what I experienced a few days ago. I realised that if I start my day with little and simple tasks, it feeds with an instant sense of fulfillment and productivity but I end not completing any major tasks.
I see now that I was filling my daily jar with sand first instead of stone.
Lot's of wisdom and deep discovery hidden inside this Newsletter.
I was able analyze myself, how I operate and regulate my time and how well I utilize it, I got to find out that most of the times I'm the one holding myself back. i.e na me wey no dey gree for myself not others.
I calculated so well, then I found out that what I started doing recently is actually what you talked about in this Newsletter (in some part) but I've not thought about it, you brought light to that action. I observed that I go early to bed then I wake between the hours of 4am to 5am then proceed to devotion and truthfully all the days I did it this way. Most definitely are productive, it helps my thinking.
Really this Newsletter touched different aspect beyond time.
With it I was able identify my Kairos Time.
Actually I've got learn that in a space of an hour there is more I can achieve and I'm committing to that, to do much better.
See what people pay for and you're giving it out for free effortlessly, "I was just telling myself if you're not giving feedback in the comments session you're doing yourself, because this is more like a mentorship program" and time will come where there will be no opportunity, is better I utilize it well.
Hello Ajulu! I'm really grateful for this insightful post! Your thought process never ceases to amaze me.
Reading this post brought memories of my NYSC camp and I'll like to share.
I like to think I'm time conscious but after spending 3 weeks in NYSC camp, I noticed that the days felt longer in camp.
Rising bagle came at 4am and from that time to lights out at 10pm, there were activities lined up. There was literally no unallocated time during the day. It was either time for parade/CDS or you're having lunch/siesta/games
There was always something going on and I couldn't believe how much we were able to do in a day.
It was after I left camp and started waking up later and sleeping earlier that my days started feeling short and insufficient.
I've realized my Kairos moment because I know I'm more productive when I wake up early. Gives me time to pray, study, exercise(when I'm able to) and get mentally ready for the day's work.
Setting routine and keeping to it has actually been my greatest achilles heel. Making matters worse, I seldom have daily itinerary. I always think I have figured out all I need to do daily in my head but in most cases, unavoidable tasks come up in between and am left with no choice than to attend to them.
You recommended we deleting our Facebook, WhatsApp and twitter from our phone. I've been thinking about this. It will be an uphill task especially for WhatsApp because most of my business and work related activities happen here.
No matter how occupied your time is there is always a chance .
Wow this is a powerful one and helpful tips on how to manage your time and get more done daily.and the examples you gave helps to assimilate it more . Is an unforgettable one.
I even found out that I get to be more productive whenever I rise early before 7am
I found out last year that once it's work or school related, I tend to be more productive between 11pm to 6am. I get things done quickly especially now, that I am working on a story and I need all the quietness and peace. It affects my body system and causes a lag throughout the day and the cycle continues. So, can I call these hours my Kairos moments?
Thanks for this masterpiece. A major takeaway for me is the principle of NOW and having every hour planned out.
Would like to ask for myself, I have a full time job(9-5) as a technical lead, I also have a business which require my attention, also other bits like personal/career development, I also help people to get their Global Talent Visa along every other thing like working on a book etc
Sometimes I feel its too much that I am doing because one thing or the other lags. ATM, my book lags and my business.
How would you suggest I prioritize in this case, would really love a guide on planning and prioritization.

I learnt about making good use of my Kairos moments.
This newsletter is very enlightening as I struggle with time management but now I realised it's more about attention.
Very insightful article.

Thank you Sir Ajulo for this newsletter
What I learnt from this is the power of now.
The principle of Now has to be it for me. As one who procrastinate a lot, it will be a great principle to apply.
Thank you Ajulu
