People often ask me how I get so much done. I’m not a genius – I’m just like you – but I know that traditional ‘time management’ doesn’t work any more. It’s twenty years since I taught my first time management course, in my first engineering job, and I now realise it was all back to front.
I recently did an interview with Sanebox.com as part of their Productivity Giants series and we talked about how classic time management techniques can fall apart. In fact, my 15+ years of mentoring entrepreneurs and passionate world changers have shown they can actually make things worse.
In this video I spill the beans on a really common reason that this happens – and the self-mentoring questions you can ask to get through this, to crank up your productivity and make breakthrough progress towards your dreams and goals:
I’m curious:
- Have you been ‘getting in your own way’ with overwhelm, distractions and procrastination?
- Where were you on the 0-100 commitment scale?
- How does that change, when you uncover the secondary gain that had been keeping you stuck?
- What actions might you take, in the next 24 hours, to turn that around?
I’d love to hear from you, via the comments.
