Joe Clark on Lifehacking
The always delightful Joe Clark:
“I think ‚Äúlifehacking‚Äù is trendy buzzword bullshit from start to finish and I know where you can shove each and every one of your 43 folders. The concept seems to be that you could finally improve your ‚Äúproductivity‚Äù if only you had a better system. Because that‚Äôs your problem, surely ‚Äì a system. You just need something external to bring order to your life.Well, your external system sounds to me like an ex-gay camp. It sounds like you‚Äôre signing up for a scientifically dubious mechanism to expunge something about yourself that you hate. If you‚Äôre a procrastinator, then you‚Äôre a procrastinator. “
