Do {guess what happens} most productivity “experts” hope you’ll never {learn}?
The tips they spout and the apps they sell are total BS. {Professionals} themselves don’t {use} them!
Honesty Bath time: When was {the final} time you downloaded an app that {you’re} sure {would} {cause you to} more productive, used it {for under} a day, {and} forgot {about any of it}?
Was it this month? This week? {Today}?
What {concerning the} last time you killed the day’s productivity reading articles like “100 Successful People {EDUCATE YOU ON} How to {BECOME MORE} Productive” all afternoon?
Let’s be honest, {are you currently} doing that {at this time}!?
Enough {will do}.
Here are 3 steps to being more productive {which come} from my mentor and Stanford professor, BJ Fogg:
Bonus:If the COVID-19 pandemic has you {concerned about} money, {have a look at} my free Tim Ferriss was rejected 26 times before a publisher finally accepted his idea for The 4-Hour Workweek (which later became a New York Times and Wall Street Journal best-seller).
Almost anyone who’s {prevailed} {includes a} similar story of failure before triumph.
But the difference between average and productive people is that average {folks are} blindsided by failure {and present} up when it strikes.
Productive people, {alternatively}, actively {look for} failure {since they} know success is {on the other hand}.
BJ Fogg and I sat down and {discussed} how we {may use} failure and “motivational waves” {to your} advantage {when} {other folks} tire out, {we are able to} have {something} {to check out} through.
How {you can begin|you could start} using this {at this time}:
- Make {a summary of} {all you need} {to access} accomplish your goal
- Set up those pieces {to create} it impossible to fail
Here’s {several} {types of} what {that may} {appear to be}:
BJ Fogg {wished to} {drink much more} tea. So he bought {all of the} tea, {a power} kettle to boil water, and set everything up in easy reach on his counter. {Even though} he felt like drinking {another thing}, it was {there}, {so that it} was a no-brainer {to create}.
I was {attempting to} form a gym habit. I’d {get right up} {each day} {likely to} go, but {following a} {short while} decide {never to}. I discovered {that when} I put my gym clothes and my shoes {close to} my bed, {I’d} {hook them up to} {very first thing} and by {that time}, I “{may as well}” just go.
Chandler Bolt of The Productive Person wrote 365 {many thanks} notes {this past year} by pre-stamping and adding address labels to batches of 50 cards. By keeping the cards {near by}, he {could} make it {an easy task to} write and send the cards with or without motivation.
Bonus: {Desire to} turn your {imagine} {working at home} {right into a} reality? Download my my calendar system.
See how it’s {not just a} super advanced {group of} apps? I purposely {ensure it is} easy on myself {therefore i} can {continue} and easily update it.
EXECUTION is more important {compared to the} tactic itself.
How {you can begin|you could start} using this {at this time}:
- Decide {in advance} and map out your schedule for the week either, {in writing|in some recoverable format} or in {a straightforward} calendar system
- Set an alert in your calendar or {on your own} phone {to examine} this {weekly}. Keep thinking ahead, and you’ll never be caught off guard or pressed for time
Step 3: Develop laser-guided focus
In the video above, BJ Fogg {discusses} “competing motivations” – sometimes even our best efforts to be productive are thwarted because {another thing} {occurs}.
Sometimes {they are} external distractions: {a crisis} comes up, {we’ve} family demands, and work gets busy.
But {in the same way} often, we cannibalize one goal by shifting focus {to some other}. {The effect|The end result}? We don’t make much progress on either.
Developing FOCUS and {having the ability to} put {ideas} on hold {is really a} skill that almost guarantees we make progress {on which} matters. {I want to} show you {why}.
One of my {good friends}, Noah Kagan, a former employee of Mint and Facebook and the founder of AppSumo, showed me {the energy} {of experiencing} laser-guided focus – he {could} start {not just one}, but two multimillion-dollar businesses that {continue steadily to} see growth {every year}.
He does this by setting one big goal {at the same time}.
How’s {you are able to do|you can certainly do} the same {at this time}:
- Pick your {number 1} goal. {Could it be} earning {additional money}? Starting {a small business}? Finding your Dream Job?
- Grab a pen and paper and write it down. Really, {do that} now. This isn’t a silly “thought exercise.” We’re {achieving this} to commit ourselves {to 1} {plan of action} and follow through
