The secret to getting things done is time management. And the secret to time management is to list your daily to-dos and then prioritize them.
Do things first. Ok, that’s fine. We all know this for years.
The good news about being self-employed is that it permits you freedom and creativity. And the very bad news is that small business owners are forced to wear many hats: On any given day, with all the inspiration we got from our earlier successes, we may start a bigger brand new venture of diversified tasks. But the time remains the same. Just 24 hours!
Here are a couple of secrets few know: One is technical and the other one is spiritual.
Get Techy!
Needless to say, latest computer technology has changed small business forever, and for the better. If you are not using the latest technology to boost your productivity and sales, you are missing a golden opportunity. So, you must be aware of all the latest developments, everything from software training to online courses, that are useful for you to save your time.
This is the most important secret many of the small business owners neglect. So, go techy and see the amazing results for yourself!
The Spiritual Secret
Here is even a deeper secret to time management: Your mind can work on a quantity of of your to-dos while you do other ones. Surprised? But it’s a proven fact and discussed in number of books in recent times.
In other words, let’s assume you make a list of things you need to do today. You just work on the ones that are the most urgent. While you do, allow your unconscious mind to work on other ones. Confused?
For example, when I need to write and submit an article, I often ask my unconscious mind to work on it first. This may seem airy, but it’s a truth in psychology. You can turn over as many tasks as possible to your unconscious. The universe will accomplish some of your to-do list for you, if you let it.
This time when you make a to-do list, write things in the right column that you plan to do, and write things in the left column you want the universe to do.
For example, you will make phone calls, write and submit articles, pay bills, check your Paypal or Clickbank accounts. However, you may also request the universe to find the right buyer for your car or to bring you right JV partner for your new project, and so forth.
This is really a greatest missing secret: the Universe will help you get things done if you let it.
