In the present day I wish to share with you guys how I plan out my day. This step is essential for me to get an important issues finished and it helps me map out my whole week too.
You could have additionally seen me share it on Instagram Tales & TikTok, however as all the time, I wish 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 advocate the Smythson one) and the greatest pen in the complete world.
Anyway, this ‘one sheet’ plan actually units the tone of the day and simply helps issues run easily. Right here’s the way to do it:
The right way to Plan Out Your Day:
+ Write the date on the prime.
+ Checklist out your podcast, ebook, exercise and music for the day. For instance, at some point mine seemed like this:
PODCAST: Robert Greene
BOOK:Â Instruments of Titans
WORKOUT: Pvolve & stroll
MUSIC:Â 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 wish to really feel. Someday 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 finished’ checklist. These are totally different out of your common to-do checklist. These are non-negotiables that have to occur that day.
+ Lastly, your to-do checklist. Personally, I like to jot down down 6 issues so as of significance. No matter doesn’t get finished is moved to my to-do checklist the next the day.Â
The final one is often known as The Ivy Lee Technique, which we’ve talked about earlier than. It’s one among my favourite productiveness hacks and actually makes all of the distinction.
Why I really like The Ivy Lee Technique:
+ It’s easy, so it truly 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 ‘pondering’ about what you need to do first? When you’ve got a prioritized checklist, it’s clearly specified by entrance of you.
+ It makes you SINGLE-TASK. You guys know I’m all about passive multitasking, however focussing power on one factor at a time can also be vastly essential.
+ It could actually encourage a more healthy work-life steadiness. As an entrepreneur this may be actually tough so something that helps is welcome to be sincere.
To sum it up, this productiveness hack helps with focus, productiveness, retains you organized, and permits your mind to marinate on what you’ve finished.
