Business Productivity Lesson #1 - Dump It Or Do It
SUBJECT: Business Productivity Lesson #1 - Dump It Or Do It
Get Rid Of It
The most effective way to click a task is to get
rid of it. If it doesn’t need to be done, get it
off your to do list.
A central dogma of many time management and
personal productivity systems is that you need to
expend more of your time doing those activities
that are more crucial for reaching your goals,
and less time doing those matters that are more
insignificant. You must invest most of your time
each week doing what you do best, and let other
people do what they do best. Assigning some of
your tasks to other people (maybe more qualified)
individuals can free up your time and energy to
follow up on your highest priority goals. For
example, you may choose to hire an accountant
instead of preparing your taxes yourself, thereby
freeing up a couple of hours of your time and
perhaps reducing stress. Naturally, each of us
has to work out the value of one's time versus
the economic cost of hiring somebody to do yard
work, home repairs, and so on.
Setting Daily Goals.
Without a clear focus, it’s too easy to buckle
under to distractions. Set targets for every day
beforehand. Decide what you’ll do; then do it.
We often discuss our goals as if they're nothing
but dreams. Actually, we can accomplish goals on
a daily basis. Daily goals contribute to weekly
goals. Weekly goals add to monthly goals. Monthly
goals add to--you guessed it--yearly goals. With
some prevision and planning, our goals can be
something we accomplish day in and day out.
Here's how to begin.
Arrive at a list of goals every single day. Even
if you foresee a slow day, it's still a
beneficial idea to set goals for yourself. The
sooner you assume the habit of setting daily
goals, the earlier you'll get into the habit of
meeting them.
Keep your every day goal lists in one place. You
are able to utilize a spiral notebook, a PDA or
your computer's calendar program. Keeping your
goals in one place lets you look over the lists
from days and weeks passed, which makes it simple
for you to see how systematically you're meeting
your goals.
Be honest about your daily goals. A goal like
"Make $2,000 before 5 p.m." is undefined and
unrealistic, but a goal like "Network with 4
clients" is totally attainable--and just may help
you work toward that $2,000.
Picture your daily goals as the "building blocks"
of your weekly and monthly goals. For instance,
if you prefer to send marketing material to 10
prospective clients by the end of the week, make
it your goal to send out material to 2
prospective clients per work day.

Business Productivity Lesson #2 - Timing
SUBJECT: Business Productivity Lesson #2 - Timing
Dreaded First
To shoot down procrastination learn to undertake
your most obnoxious task first thing in the
morning rather than detaining it till later in
the day. This little triumph will set the tone
for a really productive day.
Consider why you procrastinate: Are you afraid of
flunking at the task? Are you a perfectionist and
only willing to start working after every little
element is in place? Are you easily disturbed?
Break up a big, hard project into several smaller
pieces. Tackle each piece individually. Set
deadlines for completion.
Attempt assigning yourself modest deadlines ' for
instance, commit to reading a particular number
of pages in the next hour. Work in little blocks
of time rather than in long stretches. Try
working in one - to two hour spurts, letting
yourself have a small break after each stretch.
Do away with distractions or move to a place
where you are able to concentrate. Switch off the
TV, the phone ringer, the radio and anything else
that may keep you from your task.
Apex Cycles Of Productiveness
Identify your apex cycles of productiveness, and
schedule your most crucial jobs for those times.
Work at minor tasks during your non-peak times.
What time of day is your most productive? This
question was posed in a poll. So while there
seems to be no fixed time of day that's the most
productive for everybody, the recent poll of 181
individuals did supply some insights into who
gets the most done when. Here, then, are some
insights into people’s most productive hours.
In the total results, thirty-six percent of those
reviewed said that the morning between nine and
eleven was their most productive hours.
In 2nd place was early morning, when thirty-one
percent of those who answered said their
productivity was at its peak.
The lowest time for productivity was between
twelve and two p.m., with only six percent of
respondents stating this was their most
productive hours. A mere nine percent said the
evening between 7:30 and 10 was their most
generative. “
So what does all this mean to you, and how can
you employ it in your daily life? Here’s the 2
suggestions about how to find and capitalize on
their most productive time of day.
Start by locating your power times. Are you an
early riser who takes on your morning to-do list
with all the zest of a bear eating honey? Maybe
you’re a night owl and zip through your most
urgent projects at 11 p.m.? Either way, knowing
and capitalizing on your natural energy patterns
— your power times — will help you be at your
most productive by utilizing these times to
tackle the projects you find most ambitious.

Business Productivity Lesson #3 - Priorities
SUBJECT: Business Productivity Lesson #3 - Priorities
No Communication Times
Apportion uninterruptible blocks of time for
unaccompanied work where you must focus. Schedule
light, interruptible jobs for your open
communication time periods and more ambitious
projects for your no communication periods.
1st, cut down disruptions
You can’t truly begin adding more productive
activities to your work schedule till you free
yourself from productivity-sapping interruptions.
Try these strategies.
1. Resolve problems before they occur. Start by
analyzing interruptions. Are there frequent time
wasters that could be avoided with a little more
upfront planning?
2. Group like activities. If at all conceivable,
ask people to reschedule their communication with
you during the same period. In that way, you are
able to have several productive hours before
being interrupted.
Likewise, attempt to block out particular times
in your day to return calls. Unless it’s a real
emergency—which are few, a client isn't going to
have a problem with getting a message that says
“I will call you back between 11 and noon this
morning.” And grouping all my call returns
together lets me concentrate on other things
instead of constantly dropping everything to
respond to a call.
3. Schedule disruptions. Appropriate particular
times during the day—around lunch, for
instance—when you’re available to answer
colleagues questions, catch up with friends, or
talk to your children. Apply this even to your
family, unless it’s an emergency.
Micro-Mileposts
When you start a task, name the target you must
reach before you are able to quit working. For
instance, when working on a book, you may decide
not to get up till you’ve written at least a
thousand words. Hit your target regardless what.
You are able to think of goal setting as a
process that helps you to decide precisely what
it is that you want, and then to systematically
do what you need to do in order to get it.
It's a process that helps you center your time
and energy on your most crucial targets, produce
strategies and plans to reach them, take action,
and make adjustments as necessary till you reach
them.

Business Productivity Lesson #4 - Using Time Periods
SUBJECT: Business Productivity Lesson #4 - Using Time Periods
Give yourself a fixed period of time, like
half-hour, to make a dent in a job. Don’t worry
about how far you get. Simply put in the time.
Time framing is a easy time management technique
I use often. Let’s suppose you have a fixed
deadline for a fresh product you need to release,
like a new e-book. You must have a fresh version
ready by a particular date. So you’ll likely use
time framing for your developing cycle, meaning
that you do the finest job you can inside the
time available. What fresh material you can
implement is totally ascertained by the time
frame. Falling away from the schedule is plainly
not an option, so if you drop behind, you must
cut features.
In terms of managing your own undertakings, time
framing may be a helpful strategy.
1st, let’s say you would like to get something
done, but there’s a chance it could end up taking
far more time than it’s worth as it’s the sort of
chore where you may exhibit perfectionist
dispositions. So you give yourself a particular
amount of time, which you won’t go over, and you
simply do the best job you are able to inside
that time.
The 2nd way is when I've a chore or project that
I want to finish, but I don’t truly know where to
start, or it seems like it’s going to be a while
before I can complete a meaningful lump. Or
perhaps it’s something I find truly boring and
would have a inclination to dilly-dally on. Then
I use time framing to merely commit to working on
the job for a given time period to make a scratch
in it. I commonly utilize a period in the range
of thirty -one hundred twenty minutes. I expel
any concern about reaching a certain milestone
inside that time — I merely commit to putting in
the time, no matter how far I get.
A side effect of this last technique is that I’ll
often wind up working much longer than I
originally designated. If I commit to working at
a boring task for just half-hour, it’s easy to
get going because I’ve given myself license to
stop after only half-hour. But once I’ve overcome
that inertia and am now centered on the job,
ninety minutes might pass before I even feel the
desire to quit.
Wake Early
Arise early in the morning, like at 5am, and go
directly to work on your most crucial task. You
are able to frequently get more done before 8am
than most individuals do in a day.
The different ways you are able to start getting
up early daily.
Method One - Gradual Reduction
Sleeping is like an addiction and like any
addiction you are able to gradually move away
from it. If you are a heavy sleeper you may want
to begin gradually arising earlier and earlier
everyday until you accomplish your target time.
This technique has the advantage that you won't
have to bond right into the early mornings.
However, I've found a lot of individuals are not
as successful with this technique as it's too
slow and gives you too much time to drop-off
track.
However, I've found that some other individuals
truly like this approach. The gradual change is
softer and often leads them to some spontaneous
change where they feel they're ready to tip it
all the way to a very early start.
Method Two - quick Change
If your reasons are beneficial enough and your
will is strong enough the best way to arise early
is to start tomorrow. Set the clock for the
correct time and get up regardless what. Your
mind will try all sorts of games with you but you
must dismiss it and stay strong and in charge.
I've found this to be the best technique. After
two weeks it became normal. After a month I
couldn’t sleep in after 5am even when I wanted
to. It had become habit.
I personally believe this is the best way to wake
early. Promise yourself you'll get up at a
particular time and then do it. Don’t change for
anything, no matter what.

Business Productivity Lesson #5 - Pace Yourself and Clean Up
SUBJECT: Business Productivity Lesson #5 - Pace Yourself and Clean Up
Pacing
Designedly pick up the pace, and try to move a
little faster than usual. Talk faster. Walk
faster. Type quicker. Read quicker. Finish sooner.
Improve the quality of your sleep. When your
sleep is optimized, you could actually sleep
less, but have more energy than you've had
before, when you slept longer. Begin by reducing
the amount of caffeine you get during the day,
particularly in the evening. Remember, caffeine
isn't present only in coffee, but likewise in
soda, tea and chocolate, to name a few. Also, go
to bed only when you really need to, and not only
because of a schedule.
Be more active. Have you noticed that the times
that you're most tired are the times that you've
no reason to be? You know what I'm discussing.
You just woke up from a long nap and since then
all you've been doing is lay on the coach, but
still, all you want to do is rest, and sleep.
It's a bit of a paradox, but when your activity
level is really low, so is your energy level.
Begin moving yourself. If exercising is a bit
much for you, the least you can do is stretch.
Likewise, climb the stairs rather than taking the
elevator, walk those few yards to the market
instead of driving to it, play with your dog, or
your youngsters. A couple of changes to your diet
could greatly increase your energy level. You
should probably begin by doubling the amount of
water you drink each day. Also, rather than
starting your day with coffee and a muffin, how
about some cereal and orange juice?
Organize your thoughts. If you've too much on
your mind and prefer not to begin thinking of all
the things you have to do, it's time to write it
down. Write everything that comes to your mind,
things to do, things to consider, things that
bother you. You'd likely realize soon enough,
that things aren't as bad as you thought.
Acknowledge your inner dialog. Do you talk to
yourself like a parent talks to a child? You're
grownup now. It's time to change the way you
consider tasks and responsibilities. Rather than
thinking "YOU have to do this", think- "I wish to
do this because..." and give yourself a really
good reason why.
Clear The Clutter
Cut down stress by cultivating a relaxing,
clutter-free workspace.
The first time you see your workspace daily, you
should feel good about it. It should be
attractive to you. Truly it should be your
favorite place in the entire building, house, or
campus. If you’re in your workspace right now,
please step outdoors for a minute, and then
re-enter it while paying close attention to your
sensations. What’s the very first emotional
reaction you can detect? Do you feel strained?
Overpowered? Blasé? Apathetic? Focused? Peaceful?
Is this an emotion you experience often while
working?
Now pick the emotion you want to feel, and
experiment with different visual elements to see
how they change your feelings. Try fresh
furniture, photos, posters, mirrors, flowers,
bric-a-bracs, toys, statues, rugs, artwork,
crystals, etc. If you've the necessary control,
you are able to also tweak the lighting in your
workspace to produce the right type of mood.

Business Productivity Lesson #6 - Get Going
SUBJECT: Business Productivity Lesson #6 - Get Going
Bust Procrastination
Bust procrastination by taking action instantly
after setting a goal, even if the action isn’t
perfectly planned. You are able to always correct
course along the way.
Among the most crucial things you an do for
yourself is to get organized. Make lists, take a
class in organization, or buy an organizer. Do
whatever works for you. One warning: follow the
KISS principle (Keep it Simple, Stupid). If your
organization system is too perplexed, it will
become just another chore to avoid.
• Make a list of what needs to get executed. This
can be listed in no particular order and will
give you a handle on just what you need to
achieve.
• Prioritize these. My way of arranging this is
by deadlines. I arrange them in order of when
they're due. You might also decide to rank them
by how important it is to get them done. For
instance, paying your bills on time might be more
significant to you than cleaning out your
closets. Do that first.
• Get yourself a calendar with room to write
notes in. make pages with dates for long-run
planning and also keep a separate list to
transfer short-term goals to.
• Take what's at the top of your priority list
and ascertain how long it will take to achieve
it. If it's a fast task, put that down to be done
the current day. If it will take a longer time,
divide it into littler tasks to be spread over
several days. Write this in your calendar with
particular dates for achieving each. Include your
deadline for culmination of this task on your
calendar too.
• Keep filling your calendar till you've a time
set aside to do each item while still meeting
your deadlines. Be deliberate to not overbook
yourself and allow plenty of time for delays.
This will let you feel confident that you can
achieve all you need to in the time you have. Now
you are able to relax and work on one item at a
time without feeling you have to do it all at
once.
60 Second Decisions
Once you've the information you need to make a
decision, begin a timer and give yourself just 60
seconds to make the actual decision. Take a whole
minute to waver and second-guess yourself all you
want, but come out the other end with a clear-cut
choice. Once your decision is attained, take some
sort of action to set it in motion.
When we view choices as being more than just
paths — as being originative statements of
self-expression — particular decisions become
much easier to make. You might say to yourself,
“This path isn’t going to be simple, but I know
this is the right way to go because it’s who I
am.” Or you might resolve, “regardless how I try
to represent this to myself, I know that at heart
this isn’t who I am. This just isn’t me.”
It’s really important to separate this evaluation
step from the act of summoning the bravery to act
on this knowledge. It’s OK to acknowledge you’re
in a place you don’t want to be, even when you
lack the ability to do anything about it right
now. The bravery to act comes later.

Business Productivity Lesson #7 - See and Do
SUBJECT: Business Productivity Lesson #7 - See and Do
Accountability
Tell other people of your commitments, since
they’ll help hold you accountable.
Take time to consider if keeping the promise in
question is executable. Being realistic and not
going too much above and beyond what you're
capable of will help you keep your promise
successfully. Note the steps called for to keep
your promise. These could be steps which are
obvious and necessary, or steps like reminding
yourself to bring fruit to work so you are able
to supplement healthy food for nicotine when you
are trying to quit smoking. Keep a record of your
progress. You're more probable to keep your
promise when you write it down. Make notes about
your progress. If parts of the plan aren't
functioning, then make alterations. Communicate
any troubles you have. This way you can get
assistance, if necessary.
Visualize
Visualize your goal as already achieved. Put
yourself into a state of actually being there.
Make it actual in your mind, and you’ll soon see
it in your reality.
Discover a quiet, comfortable place where you
won't be distracted for a few minutes. Close your
eyes and count backwards from seven to one,
letting yourself unwind as you go. When you get
to the number 1, find yourself walking on a path.
It could be in the forest, through a field, along
the beach-wherever YOUR magic relaxation spot is.
Know that this decidedly is YOUR path. At the end
of the path is the matter you want to visualize.
Could be a new home, a new job, a fresh
relationship, or something in the intangible
realm like better listening skills. When you see
that visualization- take in the particulars.
Truly enjoy this, get all of your senses
involved, and get your emotions tangled in the
experience. Big key: feel and hold the
exhilaration of what you're visualizing. And then
let it go. Send your petition out into the
universe. Consider your request floating in a
balloon, magnetically drawing in to you the tools
you need in order for the visualization to
materialize.
Pay attention to the clues that crop up in your
life-people you meet, articles you read,
conversations you overhear- these will lead you
closer to creation. Look out for an "iron grip."
It's difficult for things to flow to you if
you're holding onto your want with such a tight
grip that avenues don't become evident. Greatest
key of all: Note the disconnect between what you
visualized and what you actually feel afterward,
either right after or as the day gets on. Your
negative ego may crop up with snide comments
like, "Oh, that's just not possible for me to
have a nice home." "Who do you think you are?"
"You don't merit that." "That's not your path,
its way too nice." Catch those beliefs, listen to
the whispers, and write them down. Ask yourself
what you'd have to do to alter that limiting
belief. Write down the stale belief and burn it
in a safe place. Write down the fresh belief and
display where you are able to see it. Return into
the visualization again.
Individuals can get engrossed in the details of
their lives and chase the next big thing without
finding time to complete the projects they
previously started. When faced with all of their
incomplete projects, they often become deluged
and start to procrastinate. You'll find that
their productivity decreases and they don't
produce the results or environment you're used to
seeing. What are the things on your list of
things that need to get done?
After using the tools in this crash course not
only should you see an increase in productivity,
but you should get more results - better results.
Your motivation and drive will also increase as
you reap the rewards of positive results.
