Business Leaders, Owners and Managers -One of the biggest mistakes business owners, leaders and managers can make is trying to “go it alone”.The world is packed with knowledge, expertise, advice and support and bringing other people in to help is an absolute MUST. There is just too much to do and not enough hours in the day to make things happen on your own.Time Management is IMPOSSIBLE – Do you know anyone capable of achieving that? – You can’t stop the clock or adjust it forwards or backwards…
But what you can do is use your time more efficiently. If your working to many hours and still not getting it all done, there are a couple of things that you might need to address:Either: There’s too much to do and you need helpOr: You need to reorganise the way that you (and possibly) others are working.That’s IT…..End of problemI was talking to someone the other day who felt “undervalued” – In short – underpaid and overworked. The conversation eventually came around to the real problem:He wanted more money and genuinely believed that he couldn’t work any harder or achieve more than he already did in any single day. And he’s probably right, or we can all be trapped into thinking he’s right…Because:I’ll be generic… social bookmarking . 80% of what you do during your normal working day is likely to be a waste of time! This is a well known theory (Pareto’s Theory) that proves itself to be right time after time after time…Have a look at where you spend most of your time and make some decisions about the 20% that really does require your attention. Do you want me to give you TWO MAJOR TIPS?1) Stop surfing the net2) Stop letting emails control your life…Now that’s probably saved you 4 – 6 hours or more a week so why not -Just do it?Taking Action is the only thing you ever really need to do. Heart Lockets . For all the positive thinkers out there – consider this -Positive thinking doesn’t work!It MUST be supported by Positive ActionIt’s so easy to say I know but it really doesn’t get much simpler than this:
- You Either need to reorganise the way that you (and possibly) others are working.
- Or: You need to reorganise the way that you (and possibly) others are working.
- And: Stop surfing the net
