What is Timeboxing
Timeboxing is a method of time management where you allocate a fixed and maximum unit of time to an activity. The goal is to sit and complete either the entire project or a set portion of it in the time you have. Rather than limiting the time you work on a project, the idea is to limit the time you spend on a task but to give yourself the time you need to finish. Always allow the maximum reasonable time for each project until you get used to how long things actually take. This method is best for people who need to avoid outside distractions and do one thing completely.
Time boxing can help you get the tasks that you dread doing out of the way. It helps you fight your procrastination and increase productivity. Instead of just writing down a task you allot a chunk of time or a time box in which to complete it. Once you get used to using the system then try to keep that time box as short as possible but still realistic and doable. You’ll be amazed how quickly you can find your focus when you only have 30 minutes to get something done. Break down larger tasks, like preparing a report, into smaller components, like researching a topic, planning the paper, writing, and allot a short time box to each.
