In Step #1, we learned that FOCUS is more important than EFFICIENCY. It does not matter if you get 20 things done if they were the wrong things. What does matter is that you focus on the most important tasks as they relate to yourself, family, life, career and business. Now that we know this we can move forward working on the right tasks that bring us closer to our goals.
Step #2: Devote 30 minutes each week to assess the past week and plan the next. It's no wonder our weeks fly by and we have no idea what we accomplished or what we missed. Take a few minutes each week to plan and map out what you're going to do this week. Select they key personal and professional areas of your life that are your highest priorities and get those important "rocks" on the calendar. According to Bill Zipp, Time Management expert, "Get the rocks on the calendar and the sand will filter through."
This Week's Action: Select a time that works for you to plan your week. Commit to taking 30 minutes to review your calendar and make sure there is time for the most important priorities.
We all only have 24 hours each day. Make sure you are using them wisely. Stay tuned for Step #3 to Dramatically Increase Your Productivity. Make it a great week!
