The efficiency of the working day is evaluated by the results obtained, that is, by what the person managed to do. It is not always possible to keep up with everything - the problem may lie in the fact that you demand too much of yourself, and in the irrational use of a temporary resource. To do more, learn to act according to a few tips.
Planning
Good planning is not even half, it is almost 100% success. The maximum that people are usually limited to is drawing up a to-do list per day or per week. However, it is important to take into account the time that you will spend. If you do not always specify the exact time with the tasks that you perform rarely, then the daily routine is quite measurable. Notice how long it takes you to perform regular tasks, and look for how you can cut it.
It often happens that some days of the week are so clogged up that there is no time to take a break, while others are practically free. At this stage it is necessary to distribute the load so that all days are occupied evenly.
To-do lists for the day and the week with the time must always be in front of your eyes - so that there is no temptation to distract.
Time eaters
You can be very surprised if you analyze at least once what time it takes during the day: searching for keys that have collapsed behind the cabinet, viewing unnecessary information on the network, sorting out phrases from yesterday’s dialogue with the head ... used to not do the right thing. Therefore, having fixed once on paper everything that takes minutes and hours to senselessly, and having appreciated the potential benefits from this time, you will be able to fill in significant gaps in planning.
Do in advance
After analyzing which of the cases may take more time than you planned or in which you may encounter difficulties, proceed to them. This increases the likelihood that you will manage on time and without unnecessary hassle.
Then there will be no time
Putting it off until later is a common habit. And extremely harmful. After all, you can always find "excuse" to do nothing. When you have a clear plan in front of your eyes, according to which both tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, the unfulfilled tasks will simply be transferred.
Delegation
In order to keep up with everything, it is necessary to properly distribute duties among the team members (both at work and at home). Try to unload yourself as much as possible, leaving a solution only to the most important issues.
Add all new activities
Strange advice to a man who already does not have time? Not. The more you need to do, the more you will have time.
Within the framework of a hard time limit, a person begins to act quickly and is not distracted.
Everyone knows the diplomas written overnight, the ideal order, brought 15 minutes before the arrival and guests, etc. Therefore, if you have long wanted to take up a new hobby - just include it in the plan, and you will see that you have time for it.
Order
When all things are in place, the efficiency of labor is greatly increased. This is due not only to the fact that there is no need to look for a lost folder, but also to the fact that the brain works better when chaos does not reign around.
No need to be a perfectionist
This item is related to the previous one. Order is order, but polishing the flooring daily is not necessary. Save time where it can be done. However, the statement does not apply to working moments, those where you really need to be the best, professional. Indeed, in this case, you will lose potential customers and possible profits.
Rest is as important as work.
And the rest also needs to be made to the plan - plan not only the evening itself, but also paint everything you need to do to prepare it. After a good rest and with the time spent with pleasure, the power to work will multiply. Carefully choose ways to relax. If you are facing a global work goal, then the rest should be a relaxing and relaxing. Alcoholic gatherings are not your option, it not only will not let you relax, but will also remove the whole next day from work.
The most important advice is to understand why you need to do everything. Formulate a goal that stands before you, something that will move you forward. Write it on the first page of your diary.
It may be a life goal or a goal for a period of time. But it is - your main motivator who will not allow to stop. This item is the most important. It allows you to prioritize and understand what is worth spending time, and what does not deserve your attention.
To develop a habit, you need to repeat the same action for 21 days. If at the very beginning it is difficult for you to stick to the plan clearly, then in 3 weeks it will become second nature.
