If you're a creator, you need to get paid! ๐ต
The more efficient you are at brain-dumping and organizing your ideas, the more easily and quickly you will complete your most important projects โ the ones people want from you.
A ๐งต about the 3 fundamental productivity tools.
Efficient productivity is the skillful completion of what you planned to accomplish.
Unfortunately, many people are not effectively using the most efficient productivity tools.
The result?
Not knowing what to prioritize, showing up late, and feeling overwhelmed.
To be an efficient, productive, and successful creator you need to master managing tasks, projects, and appointments.
The truth is that you have the tools, you're probably just not using them effectively.
You're probably already using one of 3 basic productivity management tools:
1. Lists ๐
2. Agenda โ๏ธ
3. Calendar ๐
Each tool involves a different thought process to skillfully manage and allocate your energy to optimize for,
โข Clarity
โข Daily productivity
โข Weekly overview
Here's how to use these 3 productivity tools as a whole to go from planning to completion:
1. Lists: Clear your mind ๐
When you record your ideas as lists and organize them into projects and tasks, you remove a cognitive load from your brain.
This frees up energy to focus on the task at hand, knowing important items have been recorded, managed, and allocated.
2. Agenda: Daily recipe โ๏ธ
Your agenda is a forcing function to do a granular deep dive & create your daily recipe.
The ingredients are your tasks, notes, resources, reminders, meetings, etc.
The method requires clarity about what to do first, in what way & for how long.
3. Calendar: Bird's eye view ๐
Use coloured blocks to tell your brain the energy or focus required for a specific task.
Book those tasks at a time of day to maximize creative vs analytical focus.
Schedule your priorities: personal & business appointments, habits & routines.
โ The power of the 3 productivity tools as one.
Each tool allows for a specific kind of thought process, planning, and organizing.
Together, they function like a completed recipe โ the outcome is greater than the sum of each ingredient.
โ
When your ideas are out of your head...
โ
When you have a plan for what you need to accomplish today...
โ
When you have an overview of the bigger picture...
You will then have optimized your productivity allowing you to enjoy more peace of mind and freedom.
