There are quite a few different questions that you should be asking yourself if you want to regain control of your life. One of the first questions you need to ask yourself is where you have blocks of time scheduled in order to actually get your work done. You also need to think ahead and figure out what problems you need to solve next week. Finally, ask yourself what meetings you can let go of either by delegating or outsourcing.
Key Takeaways:
- Ask yourself what meetings you can delegate, outsource or delete from your calendar altogether.
- Do you have blocks of time on your daily schedule for actually getting work done?
- See if you can shorten meetings into shorter increments, or take a meeting standing up.
“Ever had one of those days (or decades) where you were constantly working but not getting enough done? You’re not alone. So many of us lose hours playing whack-a-mole with emails, calendar invites, and text messages before we’ve even had our morning coffee.”
