   Every single one of these is a meaningless platitude.
   Useless feel-good things that don’t actually help your work at all becuse most people have a real job that requires a large amount of demand and persistence in a routine; not garbage like “I wish I had spent more time having fun”

      Its not all meaningless platitudes. I agree there are a few in there (spend more time having fun) – but there is some real useful stuff there. Multitasking never works, set yourself deadlines, break big tasks into small chunks, write down all your random thoughts. They are all useful.

      Course, they are also part of getting things done – go figure.

   This slide show just wasted my time, which is apparently $1000/hour, so pay up Lifehacker.

      You should pay yourself. No one said they were going to pay you for your time.

   Most of this does not relate to “regular” jobs. If you have a 9-5 job in, say, a call centre. You can’t just work a few hours then go home with the intent of working more the next day. It just doesn’t happen.

   These apply to self-employed people, creative professions and consultants.

   Good luck making most of these happen with a regular office job
