I was dead wrong about calendar blocking until I tried it for 2 weeks straight

I thought scheduling every little thing would make me feel trapped but after missing 3 deadlines in February I gave it a shot and now I actually get 4 hours of focused work done before noon. Has anyone else found a time management trick they swore would never work?

Nah, that sounds like a nightmare honestly... I'd feel suffocated.

and that's exactly how I felt the one time I tried a "retreat" thing with a bunch of strangers. I lasted four hours before I made up some excuse about a family emergency and bailed. My sister still jokes about it because I told her I was going to "find myself" and instead I found the nearest Starbucks with decent wifi. Was the group that intense or did you just feel like everyone was way too into the vibe?

Isn't that just the whole "everyone's performing enlightenment" thing we see everywhere now, @kimdixon?
