Crack the Code of Productivity -The Key Lies in Effective Scheduling-

We all have the same twenty-four hours each day. So why do successful people get so much done in their twenty-four hours while others struggle to accomplish the tasks on an essential to-do list?

Answer is simple

By using productivity tips and creating and sticking to an efficient daily SCHEDULE, you can do more and do better every single day.

Time is a finite resource for all of us. Leaving your limited number of days and hours up to chance is not responsible for resource management.

Instead, use a schedule and reap the rewards.

1. Define Your Why and Identify the What

2. Set Priorities

3. Estimate How Long A Task Will Take

Everyone’s why is different, but it’s the meaning and purpose behind everything we do. Simon Sinek popularized this concept in his book Start With Why. Sinek demonstrates that “why” can truly motivate individuals and businesses to reach their goals. & What to do will help you to avoid procrastination – as we have discussed earlier clarity makes you more productive

There are millions of ways you could spend each day. And you can’t do everything. Without priorities, you may find yourself spending time on tasks that don’t get you anywhere.

So you have to figure out what you need to get done to achieve your goals in service to your why.

One of the most common scheduling mistakes people make is not correctly estimating how long a task or project will take. “If you over-or-underestimate on how long this will take, you’re more likely to throw your entire schedule off.

Even worse, you may miss a deadline or waste valuable time for you and key stakeholders like employees and customers.”
