1 Hour of clarity for a successful business and a better life.
This is a simple and extremely effective task, when you consistently apply this you will take your business to the next level!
Today we live in the information age, it’s great, things happen at the touch of a button.
We have access to cash in any country in the world through a machine (or cards), instantly chatting over Skype or FaceTime. We have everything at our fingertips.
But there are some downsides. We are busy and distracted, always connected…
Volumes of research tell us that to really solve problems, to really be creative or innovative we need to focus.
But as business leaders, we are constantly being overwhelmed with a barrage of information, decisions, questions, and problems. This overwhelm leads to decision fatigue (yes it’s a real thing), poor judgment, negative attitudes, and ultimately hurts both our business and personal life.
I recommend taking 1 hr of clarity to think about the big things that matter in your business. The things that make your business a massive success.
Follow these simple 10-steps:
- Clear your diary for 1 hr
- Find a quiet place – no computer/tablet/phone.
- NO DISTRACTIONS
- Go old school, pen, and paper only.
- Dedicate the 1st 30 mins to just thinking about the future.
- Dedicate 10 min to just writing – write your thoughts, your emotions, whatever comes to mind. – REFRAIN FROM PLANNING (that comes later)
- Take a break for 10 min – have a coffee/water, walk a little stretch
- Revisit your notes – spend 10 min defining each item by its outcome ($, hrs, emotional state). This is your success factor.
- Put the piece of paper in a safe place.
- Give it a few days (this leverages your subconscious mind)– go back and re-read. Prioritise and create your plan.
This works wonders, try it today!
