A while ago, I looked at my to-do list and laughed. (Not in a fun way. More like “Are you kidding me?” kind of way.)
There were 17 things on it. None done. All urgent. And I still had to respond to that one email marked "follow-up" from last week.
So what did I do?
I opened a new tab. Checked the news. And spiraled into productivity guilt.
Until I tried something straightforward. Something that now powers how I plan every single day.
Something I call: Time-Slicing.
What Is Time-Slicing?
It’s neither time-blocking nor multitasking. Not the Pomodoro technique. It’s a flexible, human way of designing your day in intentional micro-blocks.
Think of it like cutting your day into slices of pizza. Each slice has a flavor — Deep Work, Admin, Creative Time, Errands, Recovery. You don’t stuff it all in at once.
You go slice by slice—task by task. Win by win. One slice = one focused pocket of work.
No guilt.
No chaos.
Just momentum.
Why It Works (Especially If You’re a Human, Not a Robot)
Because you’re not wired to operate on a factory assembly line. Your energy changes. Your mind wanders. Life interrupts.
Time-Slicing gives you:
Structure without rigidity
Momentum without burnout
Enough grace to fall off and restart mid-day
It honors your focus patterns, not fights them.
