First, great post - I'll put some things to use (already doing some of them).
I've found that I'm quite effective using these types of tools to accomplish tasks at work (which are much more "mandatory"), than I am for hobbies/personal projects.
Do you apply these tools equally to your hobbies/personal projects? I guess I just have trouble using these same types of strategies on my own, sometimes not so well-defined projects and interests. Any input would be great.
I do apply these tools equally to my hobbies and personal projects.
I think it would be easiest if I attempted to give advice that is tailored to your particular hobby / personal project. Something like "learn piano" is going to be treated a little differently from "maintain a blog" which will be treated a little differently from "research nutrition".
But generally, I find things go well when I make timeboxes for these projects (set aside work X hours to work on this per week) and then break down the hobby into actionable tasks.
