Daily Productive Sharing 428 - Writing A Book With 10 Minutes A Day
One helpful tip per day:)
(下附中文版)
#reading
How, exactly, did I manage to write a book in this short a time? I had one simple rule: I had to work on the book for just ten minutes, every day, no excuses. Ever.
The original reason I tracked my time, in fact, was that I wanted to motivate myself by having a streak of days, and I figured that instead of just tallying check marks, I’d write down exactly how long I spent. It worked — I never missed a day.
All I needed to do was stare at the page for ten minutes and try to do something that felt like progress.
The other thing that really helped is that I didn’t allow myself to check my email until I worked on the book.

Alex Allain 在2010-2011年花了不到200小时写成了 Jumping Into C++ 这本书，他是如何做到的呢？
他给自己定下一个规矩，每天必须写至少十分钟，必须完成；
他最初定下这个规矩，只是为了激励自己建立一个新习惯；
只有写完这十分钟，他才能打开邮箱；
当然又几天他也写不出新内容，所以就拿这些时间去编辑之前写的内容；
我们的 DPS 电子报也秉承同样的理念，每个工作日都更新，当然我们做不到每天准备新内容，所以都是在周末提前准备好下一周的内容，然后定期发布。回头一看，我们也坚持一年半了，只要生活中没有什么巨大的变化，我们会一直更新下去。
