4 Hour Per Day Works Anonymous 04/20/2020 (Mon) 19:27:31 Id: 2477f2 No. 2698

In 8chan's /liberty there was a good thread about the most productive length of human work. A good pasta I kept is pic related.
Around %80 of the work accomplished seems to be accomplished during these 4 hours. The rest of the day seems only to make up %20 of the work
Since then I looked into it and many names that made important and taxing brain work (Darwin, Jefferson, mathematicians etc) worked around 4 hours of disciplined work per day.
Another important thing that seemed to be was 3 hours was this between morning and noon (9-12) and one extra hour before evening (around 3-4) . But there were also some people who worked after lunch (around 1-2 pm)
So is there a truth to that in daily workplace life ? I remember some countries tried to pass laws for half days for some work lines. I am not so sure of results though.
What do you guys say ? Anyone working half days ?

Forgot to add the pasta. Sorry :)

I used to mentally masturbate about productivity a lot. Also followed the whole 4 hours in the morning is the most productive mental fapping ritual.
Now that I'm wiser, I can say that porn is less destructive than mentally masturbating about productivity.
>>2700
Can you elaborate a bit ?
>>2699
Oh I remember that. I was surprised by that the first time I read it since I usually see leftists advocating for the 4 hour work day.
>>2700
This is a hard to explain concept, but I oddly agree.

I remember back in college I was obsessive about productivity to the point of autism. I was keeping logs about how much I got done, and thought, "I wonder how much I would get done if I didn't obsess about it at all?" And that following week I ended up working less and getting much more done. I also noticed that I would have rather significant 'spurts' of activity as well. It's hard to explain why, but it just is what it is.
>>2703
I think he means that a person can spend too much time thinking about productivity, rather than actually getting anything done.

As a student I was told that it was expected that I would do 2-3 hours of homework every night. I ended up recording my time spent doing homework and it ended up being something like 45 minutes. 90 minutes was a good night.

When I went to uni I was told it was expected that I would spend about 40 hours per week on studies. I was also working full-time, so I had limited time to study. Most days I would go to the city, sit at a cafe and spend 1-2 hours noting down a lecture or working on an assignment. I probably only averaged around 10 hours a week, and passed with good grades.

This year I have been unemployed, so I thought I'd scale up my studies to account for the fact that I'm working less. Nope. I fuck around and maybe do 2 hours of study if a duedate is coming up.

So yeah either I'm some kind of super genius, or people heavily overrate the amount of time required to do work.

When I'm working on my own projects I find that I can make pretty solid progress in 3-4 hours. It's enough time to get in 2-3 solid work sessions, where you sit down, work through a problem, and implement a solution. If I pushed myself harder I could maybe fit in one more work session of 90 minutes or so. After that it would just be mentally exhausting. However dumb shit like reading through emails or sitting in front of a word document, I could do that all day.

Maybe there are people out there who can actually put in a solid 8-12 hours of work in a day, but these people have different minds from the rest of us. I have a wealthy relative who went from nothing to owning his own factory. He's got a shitty personality, has a couple of basic hobbies, and seems to spend the rest of his time walking around the house doing small pointless tasks. To me it almost seems as though he feels uncomfortable sitting still, and is doing shit because sitting around is difficult for him. He even got a terminal illness but just keeps on going. He doesn't even spend his money on anything or have a family. I'd ask him why he works so hard but he has such an insufferable personality there never seems to be a good time to ask. I feel like a lot of "successful" people have this strange personality, where somehow they are unable to feel comfortable being idle.

I've also met a few successful people who have nice personalities, but I think all of them have some kind of energy that drives them to keep doing shit that normal people don't have. Us normal people should focus on setting a handful of goals for the day, and knocking them down. Repeat for a week and you can get a surprising amount of shit done. It's when you get complacent and stop setting goals for yourself that you start wasting time. That's why all this modern software development shit like scrum and daily meetings exists. It forces people to say what they're going to do today, because that's really a big part of getting anything done.

These people are ENTJs, I know a bunch of them too and they are super successful, one owns a few businesses, the other went from being broke and waiting tables in a restaurant to being the manager of a luxury clothing store in just a couple of years, they are assholes like Trump and Gordon Ramsey and can't sit still for a second, always needing to do something useful with their time, steamrolling people who get in the way of their goals. At the end of the day they are actually really great people despite coming off brutal, and they can be really generous with their wealth because they have a sort of inferiority complex, which is also the reason why they work so hard, they need constant proof that they are "good enough" and they get it by accomplishing shitloads of things, which leads to them becoming the wealthiest part of the population, the only problem is they lack empathy because of their inferiority complex but if they are mature enough they can kinda emulate it.

INTPs are the total opposite, they are lazy as fuck but also really logical, so most inventions in history were invented either by NTJs who need to accomplish shit, or by NTPs who are too lazy to do things the usual way so they systematize and automate the way things are normally done. If you lean more towards the latter, it will be really hard for you to have an ordinary routine and work the "normal" way without burning out and suffering long-term psychological damage, you need a flexible routine, lots of snacks, sugar, and music to keep your dopamine up while doing boring work, and to take lots of breaks to prevent burn-out unless you're actually enjoying your work, in which case you should keep going as long as you can.

That's the hardest thing for me to deal with. I know that on the inside they can't really help it. But goddamn they still piss me off. I want to try and be more easygoing with them and just accept they're going to do shitty things like play people off against each other and make nasty comments.

>you need a flexible routine, lots of snacks, sugar, and music to keep your dopamine up while doing boring work, and to take lots of breaks to prevent burn-out unless you're actually enjoying your work, in which case you should keep going as long as you can.
My life in a nutshell. This quarantine is killing me because I find it so hard to get any work done in my bedroom. I need stimulation of being outside.

moar pics.

You just gotta learn how to deal with them I guess, I think a lot of the time it's just them being immature and not inherently bad, though admittedly I had to cut out a few of them before because they were just too much for me to deal with at the time.

As funny as it is, if you're an INTP, then ENTJs would make the best life partners for you because your cognitive functions complement each-other perfectly, though INTJs would be a good choice too in case you're not a fan of getting raped with a strap-on.

If you think something should be banned, you might want to try reporting it instead of bitching in unrelated threads. Further, while le Jungian personality types can easily turn into cringe normie shit, I'm hardly inclined to call 3 posts a "raid."

thanks /tumblr/ i enjoyed this one.

If I determine the enemy's disposition of forces while I have no perceptible form, I can concentrate my forces while the enemy is fragmented. The pinnacle of military deployment approaches the formless: if it is formless, then even the deepest spy cannot discern it nor the wise make plans against it.

Reading pseudoscience is a form of coping actually.
