Banishing The 8 Hour Work
Day
How Did It All Start?
Industrial Revolution
Then Someone Stood Up... In the 1800‘s Robert Owen bravely stood up and said...
Which started the 8 hour work day
It was a great move for the workers at the time...
...but looking now..
It’s purely a century old norm for running factories most efficiently.
The Current Economy... No Longer Factory Driven In The US
Harvard “Work / Happiness” Study
The U.S. isn’t evenin the top 100 happiestnations on in the world!
Then I Saw Amazon Natives...
It’s Not In Our Nature ToSlave Away For 30%+ Of
Our Lives... So Why Do We?
Enter Parkinsons Law:In 1955 Cyril N. Parkinson wrote in an issue of the Economist...
"work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion"
In Other Words...
If you give yourself 9-5 to “work” on a set of tasks...
... it’ll take you 8 hours to get it done.
Using Parkinson’s Law To Your Advantage...
First...
You need to question why you work the certain times during the day that you do.
What makes you mentally pick “8 hours”?
Second...
Pick a different number of hours (ideally fewer) that you’d rather work during the
day.
And start with working that many hours for 2 days a week.
Third... (the key)
Write down 5-10 things you’d do with those extra hours during the day.
(in my mind, this is the key. Here’s why...)
What Can You Do With That Extra Time?
More time with family
More time for hobbies
Reading great books
Volunteering at a charity
Writing on stuff you’re passionate about
Working on your “big idea”
More creative time away from the “weeds”
