My thoughts on time management.
I don't know about you but one of my biggest issues is time management. That has become very apparent to me since joining WA. I find my self bouncing back and forth between lessons, answering email and comments, blogging, helping others and working on my page. That got me thinking this morning. Being the New Year, why not make time management a resolution of mine. I also am quite certain that I'm not the only one who struggles with this. Why not make a blog and get others opinions on matter. Find out some others strategies could not only benefit myself but all in all benefit the community as a whole. So here is my strategy and how I plan on breaking up my day. This is more for people who are just starting out like myself but could easily be implemented into any ones day with a few tweeks. It is and will continue to be a work in progress. By all means if you have some suggestions for me and others please share.
1.first thing I will do each day is check my email and respond as necessary...they have emailed me either answering me or asking me something...common courtesy is to reply
2. next I will respond to comments on my profile, questions, comments, blogs or training from fellow affiliates...they have taken the time to comment...I can take the time to answer and/or thank them
3. I will now take a moment to follow back the people who have followed me and thank them for the follow
4. next I'm going to take some time to comment on the "how much much money would you be happy earning" blog...this is where the "newbies" are ( I say newbies with the out most respect...I'm one myself) it's pretty scary when you first join, very daunting...having someone respond to this comment and welcome you to WA is a good feeling.
***you may have noticed that I have yet to work on anything of mine yet as far as lessons and website work...this is on purpose...I have realized in life that supporting and helping others including saying thank you is what life is really about...I do this at the beginning of my day because not only is it important but helping others makes me feel great...why not start off with some thing like that
5. Here is where I'm going to start with my work...first I will do some training...weather it be lessons, blog study relevant to where I'm at or video training...I will always ask questions as needed and search for the answer myself
6. I'm going to go back to helping for a little bit...I'm not sure how I'm gonna choose what area I'm going to help yet but I'm thinking something like this...if I'm on lesson 2 course 3 I'm going to answer some questions on lesson 1 coursr 3... I think this will not only help others but myself as well...it will be sort of a review for me...I learn so much in life helping others...any suggestions on this part are welcomed...it's going to take some time to work out
7. Now comes the meat and bones of my day...website work...asking questions along the way and finding answers myself if possible
8. Now I'm going to repeat steps 1 thru 3 so as not to be overwhelmed the next day but also hopefully get my questions answered from that da
9. I would like to finish my day out by either writing a blog about questions ideas I have...do some training material for the community or something like that
Please tell me what you think...I need to allocate a certain amount of time for each step I know but as I said it's a work in progress...thanks for reading and a vey Happy New Year to each and every one of you.
