How many 90 days constitute the territory of your life?

This article is about 1,300 words.

For a while, there was a popular document on the Internet called "Life in 900 Boxes", which means that for ordinary people, based on the average life expectancy of 75 years, if one month is used as one box in Excel, it is 900 A grid.

Later I read "A Hundred Years Life". This book concluded that people of our generation have a 50% chance of living to be over 90 years old. Let’s design a table for 90 years of life. It looks like this:

(This table is not complicated. If you don’t want to design it yourself, you can add it to the first WeChat in the comment area and leave me a message to request it. )

So, you will see how much space you still have in your life under the most optimistic situation and everything goes well. Many people will shudder that the passage of time does not require permission, cannot be increased or decreased, and cannot be saved. This realization also prompted me to decide that I must learn to control my time, or in other words, let myself have less time that I will regret a lot in the future. So, on the May 4th Youth Day in 2021, I came to Shanghai to participate in the Easy Efficiency First-Level Line Class is over.

There is really not much that can be learned after two days of get out of class - no matter how much the teacher teaches or whether it is good or not. The advantage of offline classes is that you can find a group of people who have the same confusion as you and are also working hard to find breakthroughs. This group of people will work with you, under the leadership of the teacher, in the next period of time, for example, Yi Xian proposed to practice for 90 days, to jointly cultivate the ability of time management.

The cultivation of ability comes from continuous practice. It is necessary to sort out the contents of these 90 days of practice:

1. Clear your brain, write down all your thoughts for a period of time (usually in weeks), and then delete, postpone, delegate, and execute arrangement.

2. Determine the things to be executed, which are divided into calendars and lists according to the scenario. You must be proficient in using two APPs (1CalendarS, 1ToDoS), develop a habit, and be able to write down future arrangements (calendar) and irregular ones at any time. Scheduled completion, plan (list) divided by scenarios.

3. Reasonably arrange your work, rest and diet, and develop a healthy lifestyle that suits you, including getting up early every day, 3333 healthy eating, exercise (meditation, running...), lunch break, high-quality sleep, etc.

4. Eat three "frogs" every day and list the three most important things that must be completed.

5. Use one thing to focus on to focus on important things, 255 Pomodoro Technique.

6. Use the A4 paper working method to break down the work at hand.

7. Combine the above 3-6 into a five-color worksheet.

8. Manage incidents into projects in accordance with the PNAS method.

9. Find your own purpose, including vision, long-term goals, and eight major concerns (health, career, wealth, family, learning, social interaction, leisure, and effectiveness).

10. Home organization DKU (delete 20, retain 70, use 10).

11. Be aware of your emotions every day and write them in your morning diary.

12. Find the intersection of the three circles of life (happiness, meaning, advantages) and find the path for life development.

13. Make a dream board for one year and use it as mobile wallpaper.

14. Write a morning diary, weekly review, monthly review, and annual summary.

15. Conduct daily check-in, weekly class meetings, weekly group meetings, etc. as a group.

…

With this arrangement, let’s not say whether we have accomplished everything, but at least it looks powerful enough to make us less anxious. As a practitioner, I am very fortunate to be able to integrate into a team and overcome various difficulties in practice together, supporting each other and persevering.

Laziness is human nature, so there are simple and summarized numbers like 10,000 hours, 21 days, and 90 days to encourage deliberate practice.

As the first 90 days of practice are about to come to an end, Yi Xingneng proposed a 1,000-day plan, which is to use 11 90 days to engrave the above-listed behaviors into work and life and turn them into a lifelong code of conduct. Among the seniors in the course, someone has already achieved it, which gives us great confidence support. Moreover, the continuous service of a course is based on 90 days, so why worry about it being a "one-time deal"?

Just do the math, how many 90 days are left to make up the territory of your life, and how are you going to spend each of these 90 days?
