Yes William, I will always remember these words, ... "If you fail to Plan, You Plan to fail. It is true that to stay focused, one must have a simple way to do this on a daily basis, and if you should implement this every evening before you go to bed every night, and when you wake in the morning, read it again and follow it, and not necessary in the order you wrote it down. I would take an a5 card with this in my top pocket. (I had them printed for me by my local printers). I will also tell you about another card I used when I was in Sales in South Africa.
My first card was A5 with numbers 1 to 6 on the left with 2/3 lines for each number.
Example:
# 1. Must buy a birthday card / present for my wife.
# 2. Call mike to say thanks for refferal.
# 3. Make 2 confirmed appointments to see new customers about my product ...
# 4. Make changers to my website's landing page for improved impact.
# 5. Pick up son from school at 5 after soccer game.
# 6. Take Action for my new website, watch Training on Video 1 again
Your 6 things, .. "To Do List" wil be different every day, and on the blank side (Opposite side" would be things that come to mind that I pick up during my day going about meeting new people and new challenges. Some day's you may have 4 and other day's you may have 10, the idea is to remind your self to keep on top of things.
My Second card was more tailored for my Sales. Being a professional Sales person after leaving the Military and I enjoyed the freedom of writing out my own pay cheques every week / Month. This A5 card was called "WHO DO YOU KNOW" and I always kept hundereds in my car and would keep at least 20 in my brief case, and anyone a gave a presentation to about my product or service I would have this card in my top pocket with the words visible to the person I was talking to. (I would make sure he could read these words) These words were in BOLD and large enough to read it from 10 meters away. Each card would have provisions for customers details, address, tel no's area and the name of this person who referred this person on the card also. I had a value I would pay out if this person bought from me (Referral Fee).
Anyway, great article/Blog
Hi William. I always used to write a to do list for what I'd to accomplish on my computer every day. I stopped a couple of weeks ago and now I notice that I am accomplishing less on a daily basis.I'm starting my to do list again tomorrow. I'm an organized person and like things just so when possible.
