Increase Your Productivity In 4 Steps
Just thought I'd share something that's been working for me and has been helping me take action towards my goals.
Enjoy...
1. Set a measurable goal with a deadline.
I found that to become more productive, I had to make sure I knew what my end goal was... Without a goal in mind and nothing concrete you are working towards, how do you know if you're being productive? An example would be 'I make over $10000 per month from my affiliate site x by June 30,2011'
2. Top 5 Things That Will Make The Biggest Difference
Every evening, in preparation for the next day, write down the top 5 things that you could do tomorrow that would have the biggest impact on reaching your goal. It's easy to get caught up in doing menial tasks that don't get you any closer to your goal but take up all of your time... Knowing what you need to do to to move as close to your goal as possible will keep you focusing on the important things daily...
3. Reflect On Your Day and Review Your Goal/s
I started the daily habit of spending 10 minutes before I go to sleep to review my day and to briefly journal about it. I found that by reflecting on my day and asking questions like 'On a scale of 1-10 how productive was my day?' I was able to get a clear look at how much progress I actually made that day. Being aware of and measuring your productivity has a wonderful effect on increasing it... Also reviewing and maybe even rewriting your goal is very effective in keeping you completely focused and motivated on a daily basis.
4. Take Action
The only thing left to do is to actually take action on the top 5 things that you wrote down. I found that setting time aside which will be dedicated completely to your business is a great way to actually get things done...
