Solutions to Weekly Planned Drift and Effective Reading Processes

Weekly planned drift is a common issue that can be resolved by creating more realistic plans or by implementing a two-stage weekly plan. Taking a break and resetting mid-week can also help increase productivity. Author Kel Newport suggests focusing on the reality of the workload and cognitive cost, and creating more manageable plans for better results. When it comes to reading, Newport recommends reading books that interest you and skipping uninteresting sections rather than speed reading. He also suggests setting aside time to read regularly to develop a habit.
