You and I live in a crazy time. Unexpected phone calls, deadlines, ever-changing priorities, accidents, and so on, constantly lead us astray. That is why it is extremely important to know what you want to achieve during each week, month or year and plan the work. You also need to have self-control and self-control to maintain the work plan. This instruction will help you to plan your work successfully.
Instructions
Step 1
Make a list first. It is advisable to do this on paper or at least on a computer. The first option is better because the plan will always be at hand. List what you would like to do this week, including any appointments and important calls.
Step 2
Having drawn up a plan, follow it strictly, doing all the necessary things as soon as possible (then you will rest more). During the week, there may be tasks that you will certainly want to add to the list. Well, bring it in. But never (!) Remove items from the specified list.
Step 3
At the end of the week, review the work done. This stage, unfortunately, is overlooked by many people. But analyzing the actions of the past week is no less important than making a new list. For example, if you quickly coped with all the tasks, maybe it makes sense to load yourself more? And vice versa, if you don't have time for something, then you need to slow down. Keep these points in mind when planning your new business schedule. In theory, you need to spend twice as much time analyzing the actions of the past week as planning the next one.
Step 4
Make a new list. Based on the data obtained as a result of the analysis of the actions performed during the week, make a to-do list for the coming week.
Step 5
If you stick to the above rules on a regular basis, two important things will happen. First, there will be a lot of work to be done, because without a plan, you would be doing half as many things. And second (and no less important) - you can certainly find in yourself patterns of behavior, the existence of which you never even knew existed. In addition, by analyzing all your lists, you will see (maybe) that some types of tasks are accidentally or intentionally avoided by you. By realizing this fact, you will have the opportunity to somehow adjust your actions and make internal changes in order to achieve greater efficiency in your work.
