I am not always that organised when it comes to time management. But, there are some days when I think that I get a lot done and they feel rewarding. I have just started thinking about what contributes to those rewarding days.
Minimize interruptions
Our household is a constant interruption. I have four young kids. So I will say no more about that. Today everyone is gone and I things are completed. So today when everyone has been out I have put my head down and got stuff done.
Write a list
Lists can be so satisfying especially when you are crossing off items. Today I have paid the bills, organised for a meeting tonight, sent off some bills and done some enjoyable writing. My list is nearly finished.
Do the hard things first
I don’t like making some phone calls. Today I rang people first and cleared those jobs straight away. I don’t like paying bills. Don’t get me wrong I think people should be paid for what they do I just don’t like having to physically pay bills. It take time and is so unrewarding to see your credit card balance decrease. I have all my bills up to date.
Just do it
Start now. Do those jobs that have been put off now. It is the only way they will get done.
