But according to Steve Pavlina, you can use heuristics to get things done more efficiantly. It’s about making rules for how you handle different tasks. Like chores around the house. You know, the basement bulb that went black a week ago, the squeaky door that should be oiled and the 27 other things your woman put on your list. Steve offers 33 ways to deal with any task. I like his first tip: “Nuke it.” If it’s something you don’t have to do and don’t want to do, erase it from your list. Here’s how he explains heuristics in his article 33 Rules to Boost Your Productivity: Suppose your goal is to climb to the peak of a mountain, but there’s no trail to follow. An example of a heuristic would be: Head directly towards the peak until you reach an obstacle you can’t cross. Whenever you reach such an obstacle, follow it around to the right until you’re able to head towards the peak once again. This isn’t the most intelligent or comprehensive heuristic, but in many cases it will work just fine, and you’ll eventually reach the peak. [...] […] Get Your Things Done Automatically For me, until now, ‘heuristic’ was something to do with anti virus.

Productivity has always been my perennial problem and is compounded by this bad habit of mine of arriving late at work, taking a breakfast before touching anything on my desk (I’m a huge breakfast person) and yakking about non-business related matters at any hour of the working day (Oh My God, because have you heard? Ogie finally disclosed he is in love with Regine!!!). [...] […] I was just lazily surfing the internet on a Sunday afternoon and came upon this boost-your-productivity gem.

You may not solve the problem, but you will be living in solutions and not paralysis. The idea is to keep in motion. “As you take action you begin to explore the solution space, which deepens your understanding of the problem. As you gain knowledge about the problem, you can make course corrections along the way, gradually improving your chances of finding a solution.” [...] […] Steve Pavlina has 33 suggestions (the first 7 listed below)  based on applying a heuristic approach.
