Ilya Konoplev
Entrepreneur, blogger, radio host and wonderful family man. Lives and works in Chelyabinsk. In 2010 he founded a network of mini-markets, bakeries, reformatted in 2014 and now it helps her develop. Working on the organization of new business in the fitness industry.
What do you do in your work?
I work in the "legacy" offline world. :) Internet for me - it is only a source of information, a platform for communication, but not the place of deriving income.
I am launching a manager of several in the area of retail trade and catering projects, and manages commercial real estate: selling, buying, finding tenants and, if necessary, lose them.
Also, I have a program on the radio "Echo of Moscow" under the title "How is Chelyabinsk». I invite Chelyabinsk entrepreneurs, and we talk about how, why, and why should they do business in the beautiful city of Che. But it does not work - it's a hobby and networking.
A similar type of activity can be attributed blogI am a long time, with varying success, but I like it. It is dedicated to my projects, successes and failures in the development of this science, like life.
How does your workplace?
I really spend a lot of time behind the wheel, and "in the field" - in shops, cafes, entrusted to real property.
But I have such a thing as "office day" - this is when I'm physically in the office and decide there are questions that can not be solved without an office. Office day happens a couple of times a month. As such the workplace in the office ascetic to ugliness: a table, a chair, a large monitor, wireless keyboard.
Any papers on the table. Generally anywhere any securities. All workflow manages helper: I can not give a paper in hands.
My principle - is "the office with me."
Now that's turned on the home desktop. In the background in the photo below you can see the music store, though, I do not remember when it included the last time, because all the music in the cloud. The documents also in the cloud. Photos there too. All there.
What software use?
I have iPhone 5s and folding laptop with Windows 8 operating system. Operating system comes bundled with the device and it suits me. Prior to this little fellow I had bolshoooy laptop Packard Bell, and he strained his size. While his razvernosh office, half a day pass. I almost did not buy the Mac, but this time caught shustryaka, whose price is several times smaller, and the convenience of fully comparable.
More from this nouta have type plus: it can turn into a tablet, but how to use the tablet with OS Win 8 (coated tablet), I do not know. I think this is not done for the people. Normal tablet too.
Regarding the organization of the flow of information from the offline world to the world of digital storage, I have everything quite systematically. More detail expanded system here.
The following services are involved in the system: Google-mail, Calendar, Evernote, «Yandex. Disk". In tandem with them - the standard zametochnik and photoappendices smartphone.
Of browsers I prefer Chrome. Honestly I tried to transplant themselves to "Yandex. Browser "- I could not. Uncomfortable. Chrome use everywhere: on your phone, tablet, computers.
post office - Gmail. Her opportunities classification of messages and the storage system are perfect. Applications do not use computers. Mail can be seen several times a day. At the same evening the folder "Inbox" must be empty. Also should be empty notes and photos.
The digital data must be in the places of storage and be available, and not to lie in heaps where they were born.
messengers Two: the main - Viber, the second - Facebook. And also I use the desktop version of Viber. There, I have group chats on business issues with colleagues, sharing photos, quick tasks and all the cases. Viber- and Facebook-enabled chat rooms configured notifications, but I do not allow them any flooding, fan, and other non-business affairs. Only with his wife.
On the desktop is empty. After processing documents, or deleted, or sent for storage to the desired folder clouds.
How do you organize your time?
Organize. :) My principle - flexible scheduling. Reflecting its essence citation reads as follows:
Plan - nothing Planning - everything.
Cases scheduled for the week, in the mode of the day plans are revised and refashioned, optimized for real. In details here.
To plan using Google Calendar, on the smartphone and tablet for the case fixed the application Calendars 5. By the way, I do not use native smartphone applications: they are uncomfortable.
What's your daily routine?
I'm an early bird. The rise in five in the morning, there is no me at 23:00. At the same time I try to 17 hours to complete all the cases, to switch from the "business guy" in the mode of "daddy" and devote time to children. The result is not always the case. I study.
What place sport occupies in your life?
Prior to August 2014 was not sport. Generally. There were 12-hour workdays, involvement in work related to food and bakeries, and a constant load... Weight 78 kg wonderfully and mysteriously changed to 107 kg.
Understanding it from different angles, including the one that is inconvenient to tie shoelaces, and the children in the garden of the older child became known as pot-bellied.
Now my weight - 90 kg. This is achieved primarily due to workaholism disable power management on the program "have to eat less, but do it more often and correctly."
Plus three times a week, strength training and cardiac activity in the form of walks on foot or on a treadmill. Monitors the activity bracelet UP Jawbone, In conjunction with a smartphone, he shows me the beautiful graphics.
How to pass the time in traffic jams?
On the one hand, I travel a lot, on the other - do it in Chelyabinsk, where, as we know, there is almost no traffic jams. But sometimes there are. I have often in this time resolved questions over the phone.
Many, many people manage to solve the case by telephone.
I do not use the headset. Speakerphone too.
Still there is music from Internet radio Promodj. In my activity a lot of music. I do not know how to listen to audiobooks. Thirty-seven times trying to learn - not mine.
Layfhakerstvo from Ilya Konoplev
Learning to live - it's fun. But it's hard. I really like the wording that defines happiness as a process, not an outcome. I read a bunch of books on motivation, personal and non-personal effectiveness, always arguing with the authors and was somewhat disagree. I came to the fact that he stopped to listen to other people's success and your just looking.
The main thing - to want it. I want to change. Always there is much. And the only work from a position of "I". Change yourself. Now I do not feel the discomfort of life, but I see a lot of opportunities, just beris and do.
The transition to this state, it seems to me, it has been made possible, when I honestly for himself identified their weaknesses and recorded Wishlist, goals. The application, of course. :) IN Doit.im. It was there that keeps records of my life's affairs.
In general, applications and gadgets - it's just the tools, nothing more. They only facilitate us to our activities, but does not form it. Everything else in their heads. therefore Protect your head, do not hammer nonsense. Here! :)
