    Question Your Daily Schedule/Routine

    Hey Fastlaners,

    I'm not sure if this thread was already started (if so, let me know).

    I've wanted to hear what are some of your guys's daily schedules and routines, from morning to night time. How do you organize your schedule and what has helped you stay committed (habit) to that schedule?
    I've been having some trouble committing to a schedule/staying organized with that routine. What also helps you fly out of bed early in the morning?


    Look forward to your thoughts and feedback..

    What I used to do that helped me be real effective.

    I would work in 45 minute blocks.. with a 15 minute break.

    Say I am working on 5 different things, I allocate 45 minutes to each.

    Let's say I need to work on a sales script, work on a new idea, Work on B.S. Dream idea, Buy something, call my attorney, etc..

    I will allocate 45 minutes for each. If it takes 5 minutes oh well, more time to knock off.. and no I do not go on to another project.

    That way if it is on my list of things to do, they get done and I do not get wrapped up in one thing for a week.

    So 9-945 Call the accountant
    10-1045 Work on Sales Script
    11-1145 Work on new Idea
    2-245 Work on buying something
    3-345 Work on B.S. Idea

    When you are in business you have to do many different things..

    I plan to do 5 or 6 things per day.

    Allocate a priority to them, A, B or C. A is most important. I loosely follow Brian Tracy's system.

    Some tasks also get an M. M is for mission critical.
    M corresponds with long term goals like building a new website as a semi-passive revenue stream.
    10 to 15 long term goals constitute a 5 year plan.

    I use google calendar to block out time, can schedule most of the week sunday night or monday morning so you know what to work on. Leave room for changes/etc..

    Play tennis.

    wake up, (when you have kids, its their schedule sometimes)
    get coffee,
    Think (a very hard thing for most people to do)

    play tennis. (metaphorically)
    hit all the balls out of my court until I am not responsible for any more deliverables

    wait till people hit the ball back into my court

    repeat


    Motivation: Like to play, hate to get hit by the ball
