When you feel you’re out of time, stop and evaluate where you’re spending you time. Yes this will take some time, but in the long run you will save time. Why you might ask should I take time to save time.
Here come the guts of the solution. Put a list of everything you spend doing. The big things and the little things they all eat up your time so don’t miss anything you do. Now that you have your list, note how much time you spend doing everything on your list. Make sure you put down the time it takes for each item.
I’ll give you some examples.
My daily time list
1 hour doing my blog
1 hour doing my podcast
1 hour on my marketing program
2 hours working with clients
½ hour calling important people
½ hour planning next day and review my progress.
1 hour on research for my new book and podcasts
1 hour for creative time for ideas development
Rest of the day with friends and family
There can be variation but that would be my typical day.
Now you have to rank the items in your list by their importance for you to achieve your goals. Let’s say working with my clients is the number one most important thing I need to do, so I have to decide if 2 hour s is enough to not enough. That will be my call, then I keep going down the list and find the things that take time but really don’t help me achieve my goals. Not only do I need to drop the item from the list but I should stop putting any time to that items. Sounds easy but it is not.
The hard part of this to make sure your list is accurate. Both in items and time spent.
You might have some tuff decisions to make but you have to do it. By spending time on the important things you will find you can have enough time to achieve you goals.
