As we speak I need to share with you guys how I plan out my day. This step is essential for me to get a very powerful issues achieved and it helps me map out my whole week too.
You might 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 useful 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 how you can do it:
The right way to Plan Out Your Day:
+ Write the date on the prime.
+ Listing out your podcast, guide, exercise and music for the day. For instance, at some point 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. Someday I wrote productive, humorous & targeted.
+ Subsequent, write down 3 folks 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 common to-do listing. These are non-negotiables that must occur that day.
+ Lastly, your to-do listing. Personally, I like to put in writing 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 also referred to as The Ivy Lee Methodology, which we’ve talked about earlier than. It’s certainly one of my favourite productiveness hacks and actually makes all of the distinction.
Why I really like The Ivy Lee Methodology:
+ 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 could have 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 power on one factor at a time can be vastly vital.
+ 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.
Hope these quarantine planning ideas carry you worth.
