Morning rituals is my answer to making time. If I have accomplished something as a first thing in my day, I feel I should do more. That drives me to cut down all unnecessary activities - TV, mindless browsing etc. How to determine what is unnecessary? That is where structured approach comes in.
We all have same amount of time. When I studied the successful, I found that they have structured approach to what they do. They also contextualize whatever they learn to their situation.
There are two structures that help me learn continuously.
First is having a structured approach to learning. I follow Consume, Produce, Engage model to learn. I have written earlier in dev.to about it.
Even on the consume side, there are challenges. Then again, you should have a structured approach to discover, comprehend, and make sense out of what you consume.
The second one is morning rituals. Whatever time you wake up, the first 60 min determines how that day goes. I ensure that I do one of the three in the SDL model -- consume, produce, or engage. That way, I have either learned something, or reinforced something I learned.
