I get more done using THIS METHOD (pic of my whiteboard)more effective than a list or business plan

I have always used 'To-do' lists and love the idea of ticking things off as the day went on.

The only thing was, I generally started adding to the list rather than ticking tasks off (am I the only one who does that? lol)

I am also a big believer in having a business plan so I know exactly what I need to focus on to achieve my goals (reminder: so many people do NOT have any sort of business plan...eek!)

Then I read that that we are much better able achieve our goals if we SEE them.

Last month I tried it by drawing my goals on my whiteboard.....and it really worked!! I got loads done.

This month I have done the same and am on track.

All I use is a normal whiteboard. I drew a picture of me in the middle and then wrote all the things I wanted to achieve by July 31st accompanied by a drawing.

This is mine below. As you can see you don't need to be an artist...and I think that you can be as creative as you like. The idea is just to give your brain a picture of what you want to do.

I use this for my business goals but then I also incorporated my fitness and development goals as well.

It really has helped to keep me focussed.

It might work for you as well. Personally I think it is much better than just writing stuff down. I can see at a glance where I want to be by the 1st July.

Does anybody else do anything similar?
