Prioritizing Time

Effort

My goal today is to focus on prioritizing time effectively. Most people make the biggest mistakes when pressed and it boils down to not having a time prioritization plan.

The premise — 80% of the impact from your time will come from outward focus in the areas below:

• Production — taking action towards important goals
• Cultivating relationships
• Serving the world by helping others

This is where you focus on the what, who, where, and when to create impact.

The other 20% of the impact will come from investing in yourself by focusing inward in the areas below:

• Investing in your dreams
• Prioritizing Health
• Identifying and strategizing on growth opportunities
• Mitigating any identified risks

This is where you focus on the how and the why around creating impact.

The result if you are productive is usually burnout: you run out of gas in your personal gas tank and your contributions become diminished as you operate on fumes. This is something we can dive into how to conquer in the next article.
