The what and why of time blocking

First, let’s define what time blocking means. In essence, it’s all about reserving a segment in your calendar for a certain task (like in the image below). This means that you can focus on that particular task only and improve your productivity that way.

How to time block?

Time blocking is a simple process. The steps may vary depending on the application, but for demonstration purposes, I’m using here Google Calendar.

a) You define your time block name – more specific the better

b) You define the date and time for your task

c) You define the location – where you are going to execute the task

d) You include as much information as possible to the description field – this helps you to get started faster with your task

e) You define the reminders – how you want to be reminded (e-mail, pop-up) and how much earlier before the time block that happens

Time blocking is merely the predetermined placement of specific actions in specific segments of time. You select in advance what action or activity to engage in — for example, from 9:30 a.m. to 10:15 a.m. That is the essence of time blocking.

سیستم وقفه زمانی

Hi, you're right. But the word "وقفه" (pause) is different from "توقف" (stop). If there is "وقفه" (pause) in doing something, you stop for a short period and then continue while "توقف" (stop) means no longer continue to do sth. That's why I opted for "وقفه" instead of "توقف".
