Do you ever have so much to do that you don't know where to start? This is something that is common with many of my coaching clients. They are high-performing leaders, founders, or executives in a business and they are looking for ways to do even more. But doing more is very rarely the answer. Instead of working more, I actually encourage them to work less by being more focused on results rather than activity. To implement this in your life, follow these simple steps: 1) KNOW the outcome you are working toward. It is shocking to me (although maybe it shouldn't be by now) how many executive or leadership teams can't articulate the goals of the business. If you are the leader of the company, cast the vision and hold your team accountable for their results. If you are deeper in the organization, how will your little slice of heaven help the company really it's goals? 2) Say NO to the things that don't move you toward -- this one is much harder! High performers have a fear of saying No, it's like a challenge. The truth though is that you have to say no to the wrong things so you can focus on the right things! Don't fear "No," embrace it, because it means you're culling out the dead-weight in your day. 3) Finally, rinse and repeat. Ask yourself these questions constantly throughout your day. You'll be glad you did. Do you have a favorite system, process, or hack for getting things done? Share in the comments, I'd love to hear them. And if you could use some help finding the outcome or creating the plan, I can help. Send me a DM or call the office, 844-234-8466. Enjoy!
