"How do you get it all done?"
I used to get asked that all the time as a teacher, wife and mother of 3 school-age children. I made homecooked meals, I baked desserts from scratch (during the week), volunteered at church, lead bible study, and tutored on the side. I was busy and I got a lot done. The problem was that I still felt like I got nothing done. I still wasn't doing what mattered most to me.
How could I be busy, get stuff done and still NOT get stuff done???
Can you relate? You are busy all the time, but you always have a lot to do??? AND to top it all off you can't remember the last time you accomplished something.
In 2014 I realized I was always busy, but I hadn't accomplished anything since my college graduation in 2005. #SMH Truth is though, I hadn't set any goals so none got accomplished. I did whatever the DAY told me to do. My time went to immediate needs, short-term, not necessarily wasted, but definitely NOT invested.
If you are like I was and you want to get WHAT MATTERS most to you done and you want to accomplish your life goals then listen up! I'm going to give you the first step (secret sauce) in time management and productivity so you can what matters done!
1.) SET A VISION FOR YOUR LIFE
This is more than goal-setting, although it does have its role.
What vision do you have for your life? What type of life do you want to live?
When you think of a vision for your life I want you to make sure you consider all the areas of your life.
Patrice Washington teaches on these 6 Pillars of Wealth and I think they are a GREAT guide to help cast a vision.
-FIT
-FAITH
-PEOPLE
-SPACE
-MONEY
-WORK
Once you have a vision then you can get your days in order
1.) Cross off any and everything on your to-do list that ain't a part of your vision
2.) Circle obligations you realize are distractions, but maybe you need to give notice that you'll be quitting.....give the notice
3.) Create a list--> Basically a braindump of all the things you need to accomplish your life vision
4.) Put those tasks or the steps to those tasks on your list and say "no" to everything else.
Trust me if you apply this strategy to your life you will see a difference. I am not as busy as I used to be, but I am much more productive. I have time for slow-mornings with my hubby and late night movies with the kids. I own my weekends but not just that. I am seeing more of what I want for my life.
-stronger relationships
-self-care routine (daily)
-clean house/laundry stay done
-building a 6-figure business
-faith strong
-running a women's ministry
