How to Manage Time with 10 Steps That Work

In this video, the speaker explains why traditional time management techniques don't work and provides ten practical steps for managing time effectively.

The Problem with Traditional Time Management Techniques

• Clock time is irrelevant because you live in real-time.

• Most of your time may be wasted on unproductive thoughts, conversations, and actions.

Ten Practical Steps for Managing Time Effectively

Step 1: Carry a Schedule and Record All Your Thoughts, Conversations, and Activities for a Week

• Keep track of how much time is spent producing results versus wasted on unproductive activities.

Step 2: Assign a Specific Time to Any Activity or Conversation That's Important to Your Success

• Schedule appointments with yourself and create time blocks for high-priority tasks.

Step 3: Plan to Spend at Least Fifty Percent of Your Time Engaged in High-Priority Tasks

• Focus on the thoughts, activities, and conversations that produce most of your results.

Step 4. Schedule Time for Interruptions

• Plan ahead for interruptions that may pull you away from what you're doing.

Step 5. Take the First 30 Minutes of Every Day to Plan Your Day

• Use this time to prioritize tasks and schedule your day accordingly.

Step 6. Take Five Minutes Before Every Call or Task to Decide What Result You Want to Attain

• This will help you stay focused and know what success looks like before starting.

Step 7. Take Five Minutes After Each Call or Activity to Determine Whether Your Desired Result Was Achieved

• This will help you evaluate your progress and adjust your approach if necessary.

Step 8. Put Up a "Do Not Disturb" Sign When You Need to Focus

• Minimize distractions by letting others know when you need uninterrupted time.

Step 9. Practice Not Answering the Phone or Emails Unless Absolutely Necessary

• Avoid giving people your attention unless an immediate response is crucial for business purposes.

Step 10. Remember That It's Impossible to Get Everything Done

• Focus on the tasks that produce the most results, as odds are good that only 20% of your thoughts, conversations, and activities produce 80% of your results.
