“All You Can Do Is All You Can Do” can be looked at in two different ways. Ask yourself whether you are doing all you can to live a productive life. Chances are the answer is no, but you did enough. Take time and see why you didn’t do your best and what you will do to change it.

The different ways you can do your best to have a productive life.

Personal

Relationships: What are we doing with relationships? Examine the relationships around you and see what you can do to improve them. When you are being intentional with relationships can improve them. Let go of the relationships that aren’t serving you.

Health: Try and be healthy. Exercise, drink water, and get proper sleep.

Finances: Do you need to make more money? Know what you have to do that requires money. If your job isn’t making you enough, you may need to find another way to make money.

Read More: There are many ways to learn, and reading is a great way to do it. You can listen to audiobooks but having a physical book is the best.

Prioritize Work: 

Money Time: How much time are you spending on your tasks, and what is it costing you? Change the way you perform your homework so that you can save time.

Delegate Tasks: Delegate the tasks you don’t need to and let someone else handle them. Systems you use can also make your job easier.

Create a daily schedule and do it the day before: This lets you know what to do during your day.

Overcome Procrastination: Figure out why you are procrastinating. Then figure out how to overcome it. 

Deal With Stress Wisely: There are different ways you can handle stress. It could be taking a walk or drinking a cup of coffee. Figure out what works best for you and schedule it.

Avoid Multitasking: You cannot do everything all at once. Finish one task before moving on to the next.

Batch Similar Tasks Together: Figure out what tasks you can do that are similar and do them together. This will save you time.

Start Early: If you start your day early, you can segment your day, which allows you to be more effective with your time.

Block Out Distractions: It is essential to stay focused, so you do not get distracted. Put your phone away and focus on the task at hand. You will come across distractions you may not be able to avoid, but if we have a plan, we can prioritize what needs to be done.

Productivity

Check-in daily: Check with yourself and someone who will hold you accountable. When you have someone to check in with, they will hold you to what you said you would accomplish.

Focus on results and not hours worked: When you focus on the results and not the hours worked, you will see what you accomplished and how long it took. You can spend hours doing things but aren’t productive. Set a schedule so that you can focus on the results.

Set clear REALISTIC expectations: We overestimate what we can do in a day. Plan what you can do each day to bring you closer to your goal. It will be a more effective way to utilize your time, and you will get more done.

Track performance: Track what you are doing and see where you can improve to become the best. You can measure short-term and long-term goals to evaluate where you are.

Process (CRM)

Time management and workflow: Automation makes your systems run smoother, and you will have more time to focus on the areas that need your attention. 

Information Storage (spreadsheet): Have everything stored in a spreadsheet so you can see an overview of all data. Put these documents in your CRM so others you are working with can easily access them.

Marketing & Sales optimization: See how your marketing is working and if you are optimizing your sales. Reach out to new people and make connections to build your network and grow your audience. Be intentional with your relationships and meet them offline.

Safe & Effective information: When your data is stored safely, you can use it to share with others effectively. 

Reports: Look at your process and review the reports to track if the methods are effective.

Communication tracking and analysis: You can see if people are interacting with your methods of communication. Figure out what is working the best and focus on that. 

Contact knowledge: Know your customer base and how you can help them.

Audience segmentation: Separate your audience and see what category to put your audience in. It will help with communicating with your audience by focusing on the content that applies to them.

Save money and time: There are free CRM, but with a paid version, you can do more, saving you both money and time in the long run.
