| I have seen numerous Software Engineers, Web Developers and, tech people working on various domains in different renowned companies, who are literally active in everywhere! For example, they are extremely good at their fields of work. They are equally active on Social Media such as Twitter or, Facebook etc. Also, maintain blogs with quality contents. Most of them posts valuable answers to Stack overflow, Quora etc. They also Attend conferences/ meetup with slides full of gems and, not to mention about their high quality presentations(indicates their dedication in preparation). And, actively posts update about recent series/movies/musics they watched or, books they have finished reading! I might have missed some other things they do but, I just wonder how do they manage their time to such extend! How do they do it? |

This is a highly stable over time personality trait. They may not be 100% born with it, but it takes a lot of time and energy to change it, and there's a natural flow to it over time.

If you're not where you want to be in terms of conscientiousness, there's good news, you can change it. But you'll need sufficient motivation. Only relying on techniques isn't going to solve it long term.
Finally, though, please don't compare yourself to others. That way lies madness. Instead compare yourself to your previous self.
