Brett Chalupa, 2022 Doing Your Best Work Productivity for ambitious
developers
What even is productivity for developers?
Sure, you can measure velocity.
But to me, it’s a feeling.
I care about productivity for my personal well-being and growth.
The number one most important thing is focus.
We live in an age of distraction.
Focus is the superpower of the 21st Century.
No life hacks. Just habits and systems.
Reflect on last week
Block out daily time for focused work
Close social media Quit Slack & Discord Turn off notifications
Hide your phone
Guard your time & be intentional with meetings
You need a system
My System 1. Daily study 2. Weekly review 3. Capture
every piece of work in one place 4. Break the work down 5. Live by my calendar & task list 6. At least four hours daily of focus time
Break down your work into small tasks
Small, sometimes trivial tasks
Take notes & document things
Boredom is detrimental to developers.
Read and study about things other than programming
But also study programming
Have some place to be
Try new systems, review, and analyze
Read These Three Books + listen to Back to Work
