This meetup will focus on practical skills for organizing and motivating yourself to accomplish short-term goals. We’ll have a handful of speakers give brief (maybe 3-10 minute) talks on individual techniques, which we'll use as topics for short, focused group discussions. I expect this to last 45-60 minutes before we break up for general discussion until dinner.

Topics so far:

—The Getting Things Done method

—Beeminder

—Team productivity sessions

If you have a useful technique to share, please do! Let me know and I'll add you to the roster. Cambridge/Boston-area Less Wrong meetups are on the first and third Sunday of every month at 2pm in the MIT Whitaker Building (21 Ames St, Bldg 56), room 180. Room number subject to change based on availability. Signs will be posted with the actual room number.
