His boss seemed to primarily respond to emails between 5 and 7 a.m., before moving onto other tasks for the day, Savaget says. The boss also clearly read emails from the top of his inbox to the bottom, only responding to the emails he could get through in that time frame.
Rather than waking up and logging on at 5 a.m., Savaget started scheduling his emails the night before, so they'd send just before the boss checked his inbox each morning. That way, the emails would arrive while the boss was looking for them, sitting at the top of his queue. Getting his boss to respond to his emails was a"roundabout solution," where you buy time to solve a bigger problem by hacking an existing habit. The boss already had a routine when it came to his emails, and Savaget merely worked it to his advantage.The"piggyback solution," for example, is when you look for something that's already working and then pair it with your current goal.
The last strategy is"the next best" workaround, Savaget says. Rather than waiting for a perfect solution, you use what's already around you, either as a temporary fix or as a way to set a new precedent. If you're running short on prizes at an office party, you could provide an option for an IOU that doubles your winnings, for example.
