informative slow-paced

This is so (upper) middle-class. Have you considered hiring someone to do work for you? How about eating greek yoghurt and hummus for snacks? Stop worrying about bills before going to bed. Don't forget to take your annual leave and relax!

Otherwise mostly generic productivity fluff - put things in your calendar, but don't overload it; designate space for everything, get more containers; build good habits
