Hi and thank you very much for joining me on this weeks blog post it is called :-
An 8-step Plan because it really is a plan for success. As you are most likely aware success can take many different guises so I will leave you to interpret what success means for you.
So now let us look at:-
The 8 Steps to Planning For Success
Step 1 - Download Your To-Do Items
This is a little offspring from a mind dump. It consists of simply writing down all of your to dos, things that you are putting off for a later day.
Step 2 - Important or Urgent?
When listing your to-do’s you simply need to set them into priority order. Are they urgent or are they important?
Something that is urgent makes you think it is important even if it is not!
For Example:- A phone call / a text / the doorbell all of these items are probably urgent but are they always important? - probably not!
So plan your time in order of importance beginning with the most important things you have to do.
Step 3 - Schedule Your To-Do Items
At this point start to write your to-do list onto your calendar. Be focused on your goals and determine the results that you want to produce.
Step 4 - Downtime Planning
Make sure that you write down all the firm things on your schedule! For example, social activities, sleep time, meal times.
If it is on your schedule then it has to happen so remember to schedule breaks as well!
Step 5 - Don’t Give Yourself Too Much Time
For example, there is a natural law that says “if you allow yourself five hours to do something it will take you five hours to do” and if you give yourself an hour it will take an hour!
It is surprising how much you can accomplish in a short time
This was ultimately named Parkinson‘s Law which was reworded to “work will expand to fill the time available for its completion“
Step 6 - Plan Your Day (based on your energy levels)
Simply this means you should aim to do the most time-consuming task when you are in “prime time”!
If your mornings are when you are at your most creative or inspired, then you can use this time for your most creative work – avoid wasting your time with social media and you will really see your productivity increase!
Step 7 - Plan Your Time!
Plan your day in advance, because if you try to plan in the moment your brain will not feel like it wants to do whatever you have planned. So sit down and plan your day in advance
If you plan ahead you will always know what you should be doing at any given moment
Step 8 - What Are Your Top Three?
You should always select your top three tasks when you are planning your next days schedule – if you complete these tasks you will be satisfied with your day but beware do not schedule more than three important tasks for each day.
