Persistence is sort of like a ‘magic word’ when it comes to success. Persistence is basically the repetition or continuation of behavior, and it is an absolutely essential part of business. As a successful business owner, you no doubt have at least a pretty good idea of what it takes to be persistent, though it never hurts to revisit a subject that is very important.  The whole idea of persistence revolves around the fact that motivation has a tendency to wax and wane a bit as time goes by. Persistence is a behavior that can be learned, and it is also a behavior which will render this troublesome waxing and waning of your motivation harmless in the long run, which is why it is so instrumental to expanding your current level of success. However, since persistence is an attribute of longevity, it can take some strength of mind and some psychological fortitude to really believe in it enough to make a commitment to practice it day after day. Now, we are going to discuss 4 steps to building persistent behavior. Following these steps will help you with the process of more consistently being a persistent person so you can experience even better results. Every day, remind yourself that persistence is an absolute necessity. Without it, any business will flounder and possibly even fail. If you find yourself lacking persistence, then keep taking each of these four steps, one at a time. Taking a proactive approach to solving this problem is by far the best way to deal with it, and these steps forward are a perfect way to get started! I’m the author of many books, including, Excuses Don’t Count; Results Rule, Live Life with No Regrets, No Excuses, The Guide to Stopping Procrastination, The Power of Visualization, My Gratitude Journal, the Work Life Balance Emergency Kit, and The Roadmap To Success with Stephen Covey and Ken Blanchard, and more.   Unlock a blueprint to creating and having your ideal business and ideal life by scheduling your free consultation with me today!

Using calendar time blocks is one of the best ways to effectively manage your time. It's a skill that is often overlooked but is an essential key to a productive day (day after day). We'll explore different ways you can make this critical practice easier in your life and take some of the stress out of your schedule by breaking up tasks into manageable chunks.One of the benefits of using time blocks is that it gives you more control over your day. You can use it to prioritize what's important and get the most critical tasks done right away, or you can set up time blocks for things like checking email, social media, or other less pressing activities that take up a lot of time. It can also help you manage tasks when you have limited time to work on them. Remember - time blocks aren't set in stone! You'll notice that I've given you many different options for creating your time block schedule. That's because there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to managing your time effectively. How to Stay Motivated During a Time Block It can be hard to stay focused and motivated when you know you only have a limited amount of time to do something. One trick is to set your target for the time block and break your goals down into smaller steps. This way, you'll feel like you're constantly moving forward, rather than just staring at a long to-do list or a pile of work. How to Make the Most of Your Time Blocks When you plan your day, think about how long tasks will take you. Then, block off enough time to do them correctly. Avoid multitasking and using time blocks for more than one task at a time, as it can be stressful and cost you extra time in the long run. It can be tempting to say that a particular time block will work for all tasks, but it doesn't. Experiment with different lengths of time blocks and see how they affect you getting the work done. A longer time block might give you the chance to take a break from your work now and then, while a shorter one may help you stay even more focused. When deciding how to split your day, give yourself a small test run of each time block. If you need more time than scheduled, increase your blocks to the desired length in the future.  Similarly, if you feel that tasks are taking less time than expected, reduce your time blocks. Your schedule should be flexible enUnlock a blueprint to creating and having your ideal business and ideal life by scheduling your free consultation with me today!
