Quick Time Management Tip: Set Up a Timer for 30 Minutes to Create Urgency and Focused Work
I've noticed that when I create urgency for myself to get a task done not only am I more focused, but for some weird little reason it creates excitement or a rush.
I did this 2 hours ago. So I was creating a new squeeze page. I had to write the copy. Create the page. Create the list in Aweber. Test it!
At first that seems like a lot to put on your plate and most people would procrastinate just like I would.
However, I set a timer for 30 minutes to see just how much I could get done. Before the 30 minutes I had completed one of my original tasks but I wasn't going to stop there.
Next thing I knew I had been working an hour and a half on the project. I still had the same rush. I still had the same amazing focus.
You've gotta do what works best for you. But what works best for me is to work for 2.5 hours of focused work. I do this by setting timers for various amounts of time to accomplish those tasks.
Next thing you know the 2.5 hours is up and I have a lot of focused work finished. Then I take a 20 minutes break. I get done more than I would get done in a regular 10 hour day in just 2.5 hours. I don't have time to browse the internet or screw around when I have a race against time. It's kind of like a competition against myself.
Call me crazy but I love the rush that this gives me. I guess I am easily impressed.
This may or may not work for you like it does for me but I hope it gets your brain going on what you can do because it literally saved me. I was never much of a self starter before. If I didn't use this method than I would still be working the 9-5.
Anyway, time to go set the timer again and finish out Friday strong.
