Manage episode 501052219 series 3585971
Today I am tackling one of the most underrated secrets to a better workday: getting (and staying) organized! Whether your calendar is already color-coded or your desk is currently buried under three coffee mugs and a pile of sticky notes, this episode is for you! Did you know that according to a study by The National Association of Professional Organizers, over 80% of people feel more productive in an organized workspace—yet most professionals lose nearly one hour a day to disorganization. That’s five hours a week people!
Still need convincing? Then let talk about Oprah - if you've been listening for a while then you know we believe everything Oprah on this podcast. Did you know that she credits organization and routines as 2 of her secrets to success?
Enough said!
Also consider the fact that we drop our episodes on Monday because we believe that if you Monday a great one, it can set the tone for the entire workweek. So be sure to tune in to today's episode where I am going to give you even more info about how to stay organized, along with these 3 tips:
1. Clear Space = Clear Mind
If your space is a wreck, it will affect your stress, your energy and your focus. We will talk about ways to help you out of this mess!
2. Make a “Must-Do” List—Not a “To-Do” List
I love a To-Do list and will even share what my customized list has on it, but for me and my coaching clients, we see these as "must-do's" and I'll explain why.
3. Time Block with Boundaries
Boundaries are important - when it comes to time, it includes buffering your time before and after tasks - a very powerful strategy to getting things done.
Remember that one small change you make today could lead to big results tomorrow. For more support, check out these "must-do's" below:
