If I were to walk into your office today, would you be able to show me a copy of your business plan or a list of activities that you strive to achieve on a daily basis?
Isn't it true that if you don't have a road map, how will you know when you have arrived?
I once heard someone say that if you want to earn a certain amount of money in 12 months, why not increase your daily activities and achieve it in 10 months or less and take the rest of the time off throughout the year.
One of the ways to do more in less time is to REALLY focus on the activity that you want complete in the moment.Whether you work from home or at the office, let others know that you can't be interrupted during the specified time.
Simple steps like closing your door, posting a DO NOT DISTURB sign on your door or even turning yourself away from the door, so you don't see people walking by can help eliminate the distractions that can cause you to take A LOT more time to finish your task.
If you're making calls to a group of people, then turn off any other phones around you that can ring and then distract you.I believe many people, myself included sometimes, get too easily distracted and so we end up not doing what needs to be done to help us achieve our goals.
That's where your business plan comes into play.
You need to review your plan every night and plan out your next day. Then quickly review it in the morning tackle your activities as quick as you can.
Isn't it easy to get distracted while you're in the middle of completing a task, only to not get back to finishing it, because something else came up in the meantime?
I read once that every distraction can cost you 5 - 8 minutes of lost time. Wow, that can really up to a lot of wasted time fast!When you're working alone on a task, eliminate as many distractions as possible and watch how much faster you can finish them.
If you want to have a business plan, but keep putting it off, then take the time to decide what you want your business to look like. You will know what your goals are, what time frame to achieve them in, your motivation for achieving them and some easy steps to keep you on track.
To your success,
