Here's something to ponder. Automation can help you to get rid of unnecessary mental stress. Instead of constantly thinking about endless uninteresting work (and wasting your brain matter), you now have more time to relax and rejuvenate.
Because you let the computer do all the hard grunt work for you, your mind is clearer and fresher to embark on higher value creative work. I can't stress enough just how key this is. This is a very important point to consider.
By eliminating, you can liberate yourself.
So there you go! Some pointers for you to ponder...
While at it, let me just shatter 1 misconception about automation.
And that is you don't have to have complex workflow just to see the benefit of automation.
Simple short tasks can be automated as well. This is especially so when they are extremely repetitious. When you put them all together, the time/effort savings will still be quite a lot.
These are some instances of "small" tasks you can automate to get you moving...
1. Opening up of files/folders/softwares you use often with a single keystroke
2. Coming out with hotkeys to kick start the windows automation of a particular job (e.g. pressing Ctr-Alt-F to open up your Firefox browser that set to MSN homepage)
3. Schedule backups of your important documents
4. Keyboard and mouse automation with macro recording to save time spent on repetitive keystrokes/clicks.
Start with these 4. You will be absolutely flummoxed at just how much time you will save.
Using a macro recorder to record you actions is one of the best ways to start.
