Discover how senior developers stay ahead of their peers while working less hours. In this video, I break down the "Work Less Method" - a 3-part framework for planning your week that can help you ship code 3x faster.
I'll show you:
- Energy-Based Calendar Mapping: Align your most complex coding tasks with your peak mental hours
- Strategic Buffer Planning: Build in realistic time cushions that prevent context-switching and burnout
- Selective Task Batching: Group similar tasks to eliminate the hidden costs of context switching
Most developers organize their week like this [chaotic pile of peas] when they should be doing THIS instead.
