What Is Freedom?
• True Freedom isn’t being ABLE to do what you want
• True Freedom is DOING what you want
True Freedom
Being ABLE to do:
•“What” you want•“Where” you want
•“When” you want•“How” you want•And with “Whom” you want
#1 Priority in your business is getting rid of all the distractions and interruptions that are keeping you from your ONE thing!
– Texting– Phone Calls– Nagging thoughts
What’s YOUR One?
Everyone is different - here’s ours
•Getting new referral partners (office presentations)
•Then following up with those referral partners consistently
DO ONLY THOSE THINGS!
In “The Zone”
How long does it take to get back in “the zone” when you have been interrupted?
Never get anything done! Never score!
Busy but not productive!
So Carl......
It seems like you are gone a lot. How many hours a day do you work?
How can you be on the road so much and get so much accomplished?
Step One - Organization Start with your office
Doesn‘t matter if you work from home or in an office
Need a quiet, interruption free “zone”
Need good equipment. Good computer, phone, camera, software
Need a comfortable place to sit so you don’t hurt at the end of the day
Yes, Size Matters
Get a bigger monitor (Oh, Oh, OH)
Study from University of UtahIncrease your productivity by over 50%
I got a 27” monitor and notice a huge difference
Reason? Can open 2 browsers at onceor a PowerPoint and Word Doc as same time
Now your Calendar
Our bodies work on rhythms
Circadian Rhythm
Ultradian Rhythm
90-120 minutes of really focused attention
20-30 minutes of lesser focus
Divide day into multiple - 2.5 hour cyclesFocus hard for 50 minutes take 10 minute break
Then do it again
Take a 20-30 minute break
Lather, Rinse, Repeat all through out the day
Key Points!
Use very first cycle of day for you!50 minutes exercise - shower/rest50 minutes personal growth - 10 mins. rest30 minutes breakfast
Use a count down timer
Do at least one cycle for work
DON’T Check email or turn on phone until one work cycle is done
Don’t answer phone during cycle
Do your MOST productive task in your first cycle. Sets tone for day
SEE A 300-400% INCREASE IN YOUR BUSINESS GUARANTEE
D
WILL POWER!!
Strongest in morning
Use it to start new habitsIt was hard at first, now easy
Getting lots more done
No longer a fireman
My staff does it too so whole office is productive
Step Two - Take Charge of Email!
Only check 1 - 2 times a day BY DESIGN!Do NOT check it first thing in the morning (Gets your day off to a bad start)When you do check, process, reassign, delegate, make it a task/project immediatelyDon’t let your inbox build up Check your task list daily - break large projects into smaller ones with mindmap
Use Web-based Email
Use a web-based email system like GMail. (We have a whole class on it!)
Put everything in folders (have one for each referral partner or project)
Easy to search
Set up filters
Step Three - Help!
Get an assistant (see Assistant class #37)Start with part-time if neededThey do your 80%! So you can do your 20%answer phone, collect docs, take apps, call referral partners, call buyers and sellers, edit video, research scripts, manage social mediaYou can’t say, “I’ll get to that” forever.
Take Good Notes
Use this for yourself and your assistant
Find ONE way that works bestNotebook
Cellphone
Digital Recorder
Transfer to task list or mindmap
6am - 7am Drink 1/2 liter of water, Exercise and Shower7am - 8am Personal growth time (read, take a class, meditate, self help book, music)8am - 8:30 Breakfast (3-400 calories)8:30 - 9am Get to work, drive kids to school, etc.9am-11am Start first work cycle with THE most productive thing for your business 11am-11:30 Take a RELAXATION break, eat (3-400 calories)11:30 Check email for 1st time of the day - Assign tasks, delegate, etc.Noon Start second work cycleAt end of day, empty email and plan your next day
