Time management
Time management
Read this carefully and I promise it will blow your mind and you will never waste your time and you will live your life with time management
24985 imagine if
you have given 24 thousand 9 hundred and 85 rupees the time you were born and
while giving that money if you were said that only that much amount you will
for your entire life and you have to spend your entire life with that amount of
money no extra penny will be given.
you will have only 24
thousand 9 hundred 85 rupees for eating food having family etc you have to do
every single thing with that money has to spend entire life by spending money
from that amount so what you think is this amount less or more for your entire
life.
Suppose if this happens in reality then you have you be so
careful and precise with your expenses well in reality an average person get
this number not in money but in the thing which is more important than money.
As per the Indian report, our average life at today time is 68.45
years which we convert in days then it would be 24 thousand 9 hundred and 85
days means we have only these many days to do everything.
We have only these many days to eat, drink, to travel to make
family to fulfill our dreams etc we have to do everything in just these days
having 24 thousand 9 hundred and 85 days isn’t a big problem but the actual
problem is we waste hell lot of days from these given days.
A survey shows that we waste 9000 days in doing useless
activities which are more than 40% time of our lives, therefore, today I will give
a great book summary on the most valuable thing our lives and that valuable
thing is how not to waste time.
I will teach you 4 basic steps and principle by following
that you will learn to make the best use of your time and also make to achieve your
goals.
If you ask maximum people whether they are good at making
strategies or at executing it then you will find maximum people who are good at
executing they must have seen many youtube videos related to their goals they
will have lots of business knowledge but the thing in which they will lack that
would be execution.
Means they lack at taking actions for completing their goals
so if you want to be different from others want to achieve goals and want to be
successful then please focus on execution and to focus on it the thing which
will help is 4DX.
Means the 4 discipline of execution
After so many surveys on more than 2 lakh business leaders
that why they fail to take action for their ideas why are not they fulfilling
their goals then through it they came to know that the one thing which doesn’t
allow them to complete their work is whirlwind.
A whirlwind of small daily work whirlwind of procrastination
and time pass which eats their entire day but doesn’t allow them to finish any
important work means a whirlwind of social media’s notifications whirlwind of
friends meeting whirlwind of all small work etc.
You should make a system for executing your work so that you
can fight with that whirlwind and the system which will help you to fight with
it is known as 4DX.
The first discipline of 4DX out of 4 is: no. 1 WIG (focus on)
Imagine if you work as an airport ATC means air traffic controller where continuously many flights take off and land at any time if you
ask passengers then obviously the most important plane for them will be there’s
at any time.
means then all planes
will be important but for you the person who controls the entire traffic fir
him the most important the wildly important plane will be the only one plane
and that one plane will the plane who would be landing at the airport.
At any time your full focus will be on that one plane which
would be landing which then helps you to control the entire traffic similarly if
you want to full control of your life then even you should keep your full focus on
one wildly important goal means to focus on the wig.
Means work which comes under to radar complete only that work
which completes your goal
Statement from X to Y by Z
Example: I want
to increase my salary from 30k to 60K that too before 2020 and to make this goal
statement possible ask a question to yourself that what will be that one work
if you do it now then it will move you closer to your XYZ goal statement just
identify that work and complete that work before anything and work on it daily.
In a lecture, once Steve
jobs were sharing some wisdom with college students in that lecture he shares
one very important thing he said that today Apple has become billion dollars the company but if you keep our all products in one table still that table won’t
run out of space on the apple he had money resources everything but still they
focused mainly on a few products.
They invested all their energy on that product they work to
make the best this is one of the reasons for their company’s success hence work
on wildly important goals wildly important goal shouldn’t be more than 2 at any
time,
Lead
actions & lag results
Suppose your goal is to double your current income now to
achieve this goal you start working hard you search clients apart from your
jobs, so that you can get extra work and can increase your income.
At starting you try hard buy till the end of a month you
don’t see much progress in your income by the result you get disappointed and
then quite by saying that you don’t need an extra income now this same thing
happens to many people they take actions but don’t see results.
Experts say that this happens because we don’t understand the thing known as lag results lead actions no matter what work you do and how much
nicely you do it, you will get a lag the time between after action and before results means a straight line in a graph,
where you won’t see any result.
Now for few this lag time is
more and for it is less there for experts say that please don’t measures lag
results but measure lead actions daily.
Example
: instead of
measuring how much income is increasing every month or daily means lag results.
You should measure
lead actions that how many lead actions you have increased in order to increase
income.
Example: how many
clients did you talk to one two or many and next day increase the number of
lead action talk to more clients compare to previous day always improve and
increase your lead actions.
Suppose you have a youtube channel and you want to increase
your subscribers then don’t measure how many subscribers you have gained
instead, measure how many videos you are uploading weekly means measure that the thing which you can improve or influence because when you do this way without
giving up then for sure your results will improve slowly gradually hence
chapter 2 is of focusing on lag results be more focused on lead actions.
3. Put scoreboard
Suppose it’s a holiday and you decide with your friends that
today you will play cricket then you all make a team and starts playing but
after 1 or 2 hours you notice that with time their interest is fading why?
Because you all didn’t count score you have no idea how many run the other team
has made.
You all didn’t have an idea of how many runs or wicket you will
need to win, you will be just playing with no scoreboard now imagine instead
of playing that way if you will have maintained scoreboard and after playing
for 1 to 2 hours you would have known that your team needs 10 runs in 1 over and
only wickets are left so what do you think even with this both teams would be
getting bored.
Obviously no, they would be full of energy and their interest
would have gone to another level and they would have played more even if they
we're running out of energy well keeping scoreboard has the same power.
People play differently when they know what their score is
because with this their will to win increase and when people will win improves
then automatically their execution also improves hence it is important for you
to check your score frequently.
This you can do by maintaining a journal or by preparing the scoreboard at school or at home now usually you should write three things on
scoreboard.
First - You wig
Second - Leg results
Third - Lead actions
Example: suppose you the wig is increasing your salary from 30 to 60 that too within a year and lag is
how many projects you are getting to work on and lead is your number of clients
to whom you are connecting.
Now after deciding your wig when you measure your lead
actions daily and increase it daily then keeping score will make you feel that
you are winning and when you see your lag results improving then this thing
will increase your motivation and execution.
4 Cadence of
accountability
People keep more commitment to work on their idea compare to
the other work they are asked to do hence 4th discipline teaches us
to create a rhythm of giving accountability.
Means meet your team at least once in a week or daily or meet
a person to whom you can give accountability of your work and a person gives
accountability to his/her work to you, so small session or weekly.
Where you can give an answer to these three questions?
1. Did you
finish the work which you committed last week?
2. Did your
commitments bring progress in scoreboard?
3. What all
commitments you will make this week?
Usually in these one or two work
will come which will be the wildly important work which will help you the most
to increase your scoreboard.
Trust me if you do this simple
things making rhythm and habit then this one thing will help you to fulfill
your goals
