Procrastinate On Purpose

Natural Time Multipliers think like this:

"What can I do today, that would make tomorrow better?"

"What can I do right now, that would make the future better?"

Multipliers realize that next generation time management has much more to do with what you don't do, than what you do do.  Multipliers realize that perfection is achieved not only when nothing more can be added, but when nothing more can be taken away.

Eliminate + Automate + Delegate + Procrastinate + Concentrate

Can I eliminate this?

Can I automate the task?

Can I delegate the task to somebody else?

- "...Why don't you train someone else to do it?"

- "Well, because they just can't do it as well as I can."

That may be true once, maybe twice, but it is only true absent the significance calculation. If you think longer term, you realize they'll be able to master the task, just like you were. Give yourself the permission of imperfect, for a little while. Because over time, they'll be able to figure it out.

If you can't eliminate, automate, or delegate a task, that task drops out the bottom of the funnel, at that point, there's only one question, and that question is: "Can this wait until later?"

If the task must be done now, then that's what we call "concentrate". It's all about focus, and eliminating distractions.

If the task can wait until later, then that's not eliminate, automate or delegate, that is what we call "procrastinate on purpose".
