KEY POINTS

Technology Interruptions – Turn off your notifications when working. Avoid being constantly prompted by your applications to respond. This will help you feel more relaxed.

Undervalued Time – Stop giving it away! Put value on your time by making sure you are leaving enough time for yourself on the things that matter to you, not just to others.

Busyness is not a Status Symbol – Are you busy for the sake of being busy? Are you spending your time on what is going to generate results, or on what really matters to you?

Stop Procrastinating! – Change the language in your head. Instead of saying “I have to” or “I should” say “I choose to start for just five minutes.” When you feel in control you are less likely to want to procrastinate.

Manage your Meetings – Always have a common outcome in mind for the meeting. Don’t have a meeting for the sake of it. Having the common outcome will cause your meeting to be much more effective.

Unclear Goals – Break down your goals. Do you know what you should be doing in the next quarter (13 weeks)? View each week as a sprint. You have 13 attempts to make progress to your goal.

Personal Disorganization – Have a plan for every single day. The best way to create that plan is the end of the day before. What is going to make tomorrow a win for you? What needs to happen?
