Too much to do?

As a high achieving woman I know you’ve set some serious goals to tackle during the latter half of the year.!

Are you making some serious progress or freaking out because you feel like you’re falling behind?

Has the Universe responded with more clients, proposals and unexpected work?

If that’s the case it’s time to prioritize!

You may have heard of the urgency-importance matrix.  I’m technologically limited but feel free to draw this out on a piece of paper.  It will help you remember.

High Importance & High Urgency: Do it now!!

High Importance & Low Urgency: Schedule it in your calendar

Low Importance & High Urgency: Push back or delegate.  This deadline is important for someone else not you.

Low Importance & Low Urgency: Don’t do it.  If it’s not important to you or the growth of your business don’t do it.  Just because you have something to do doesn’t mean it needs doing, especially by you.

Once you have the grid created list all the things you need to do and get to it 🙂

Figuring out if something is important to you, the growth of your business, and living out your dreams and mission is the hardest part.

One way you can do this is by knowing your values.  Your top values will drive your top priorities in life and this will allow you to prioritize you actions accordingly.  You can google “values” and find dozens of lists to jog your brain.  Alternatively, you can use an assessment to guide you.  Send a message to info@vfcoaching.net if you have questions about assessments.

The other way to do this is by identifying what is unimportant.  For some, starting with the most important things can be a challenge, because everything seems so important.  If that’s the case, get rid of the least important things first and work your way towards the most important things.  At least that way, you’ll have a shorter list of things to work with 🙂

Happy prioritizing!!

If you’re going to have success in your business and achieve your goals you’ll need a few essential pieces. For one, you need intense focus. When you’re focused on a particular outcome you’ve got to be ready to play full out and make a very deep commitment to getting results.

Next you need awareness. What are you doing right and how are you holding yourself back? If you don’t know this you can spend a lot of time working extremely hard with no results, a lot of exhaustion, and a feeling of emptiness inside – “what am I doing wrong?”

Once you’ve developed awareness, it’s all about self-mastery. Having awareness without making the necessary changes will not enhance your life. What are you aware of that you need to change right now?

And, finally it’s about time mastery. It’s about using your time effectively, making fast decisions and commitments and changing your mind slowly. To start getting fast results you’ve got to make fast decisions.
