Time: < 30 Minutes
STEP 1: Spend 10-20 minutes on Sunday getting ready for the new week. Note all activities besides work on your calendar. Include yoga, meditation, workouts, walks, and special time/dates with friends or family that you planned. Include time set aside to call those you care about, etc. Otherwise “life” takes over and we spend time being “busy” rather than “purposeful”.
STEP 2: Make sure to 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 so it increases the chances of them being completed in a timely manner.
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 next day to make sure you stay on track.
STEP 4: Every morning check your calendar and confirm that your day will be managed with tasks in the morning if that’s when you feel most energized and innovative.
