Meier Wed, 16 Sep 2009 16:14:23 +0000 http://www.lifeoptimizer.org/?p=1680#comment-157757 Great stuff. I agree on the schedule. I fought it so many times because I thought a schedule took away my freedom. I finally realized the paradox -- you have to schedule your time, to have free time. When I didn't schedule my study time, I would spend all my free time worrying that I wasn't studying. Then when I would study, I worried about when I would have free time. I finally scheduled it and had a time for things ... when I studied, I studied, and when I played, I played. Great stuff.
