Time: < 30 Minutes
STEP 1: Spend 10-20 minutes on Sunday making sure you are ready for the new week and have all activities besides work noted on your calendar. Include yoga, meditation, workouts, walks, special time/dates with friends or family that you planned, calling those you care about, etc.
STEP 2: Make sure you schedule tasks to be managed during your most productive times of the day. If you are most energized and innovative in the morning, then schedule things during that time to increase the chance of them being completed in a timely manner. Otherwise “life” takes over and we spend time being “busy” rather than “purposeful”.
STEP 3: At the end of each day, look at your calendar to confirm you achieved the most important things for the day. If you didn’t, move them to the following day at the top of your priority list to make sure you stay on track. Every morning, check that your day will be managed with tasks during the times you feel most energized and innovative. What gets on your calendar gets done!
