- What you learned – Instead of doing nothing on Sundays, you can spend a little time preparing yourself for the week ahead in order to help the week run more smoothly. For example, you can review the past week and address your Sunday night anxiety (using methods such as CURE, the I method). You can also set cascading goals and use timeboxing to plan your productivity. You can also keep yourself both physically and mentally healthy, and commit yourself to at least start tasks the week ahead so that you can overcome procrastination.
- How the activity relates to coursework or your career goals – Just like finding my strengths, using Sundays to help increase my productivity is a great way to contribute more to the company for which I work, thus increasing my value and thus my negotiation leverage.
