You could have additionally seen me share it on Instagram Tales & TikTok, however as all the time, I need to share issues that I really feel are actually beneficial on the weblog too. So right here we’re to interrupt all of it down.
All you want is a pocket book (extremely suggest the Smythson one) and the finest pen in your entire world.
Anyway, this ‘one sheet’ plan actually units the tone of the day and simply helps issues run easily. Right here’s how one can do it:
The way to Plan Out Your Day:
+ Write the date on the prime.
+ Checklist out your podcast, e-book, exercise and music for the day. For instance, in the future mine appeared like this:
PODCAST: Robert Greene
BOOK: Instruments of Titans
WORKOUT: Pvolve & stroll
MUSIC: TSC Felling Jazzy Spotify Playlist
+ Then write down some belongings you’re grateful for. I love to do 3-4 issues. They are often something, get tremendous particular.
+ Write down the way you need to really feel. Sooner or later I wrote productive, humorous & centered.
+ Subsequent, write down 3 individuals you’re sending ideas and happiness to. It may be anybody.
+ Then there’s your ‘should get achieved’ listing. These are totally different out of your normal to-do listing. These are non-negotiables that must occur that day.
+ Lastly, your to-do listing. Personally, I like to jot down down 6 issues so as of significance. No matter doesn’t get achieved is moved to my to-do listing the next the day.
The final one is often known as The Ivy Lee Methodology, which we’ve talked about earlier than. It’s one among my favourite productiveness hacks and actually makes all of the distinction.
Why I like The Ivy Lee Methodology:
+ It’s easy, so it really works. All you want is paper & a pen.
+ Makes you prioritize. 6 is the magic quantity right here. Don’t overwhelm your self with 20 tasks- solely write down 6.
+ Takes the guesswork out of ‘beginning.’ How a lot time do you waste ‘considering’ about what it is best to do first? When you have got a prioritized listing, it’s clearly specified by entrance of you.
+ It makes you SINGLE-TASK. You guys know I’m all about passive multitasking, however focussing vitality on one factor at a time can be massively necessary.
+ It might encourage a more healthy work-life stability. As an entrepreneur this may be actually difficult so something that helps is welcome to be trustworthy.
To sum it up, this productiveness hack helps with focus, productiveness, retains you organized, and permits your mind to marinate on what you’ve achieved.
