If you're like me (and most other people I've met) at one time or another you'll find yourself in a bit of a time crunch. For some people this is a way of life and they spend all of their time/ in "REACTION MODE" frantically putting out fires here and there until they find themselves exhausted, burnt out, in a rut. Others simply go into OVERDRIVE occasionally to finish or launch a project or deal with a critical issue that needs addressing. All of us, I am convinced (especially business owners, entrepreneurs) could benefit from learning to manage ourselves and our priorities a bit more effectively. Here are some tips that may help:
Develop a clear vision of where you'd like to be in 5-10 years and why.
Clarify and align both personal and business goals with this vision
Identify the ideal role that you'd like to be playing in the next 2-3 years
Conduct a time-use analysis over the next week
Use this information to create AND IMPLEMENT a detailed 30-day action plan, then evaluate the results.
