After a long week of work we all look forward to the weekend, but as soon as reality sets back in Sunday is the start of a whole new week. This right here are a few tips to get your week started right.
Arrive 30 Minutes Earlier Monday Morning
Close your door and forward your office phone. Use this time to plan your week:
- Review your calendar for last week, this week and next week.
- Review your project list.
- Review your “to-do” lists.
- Review your annual goals – business and personal.
- Review your inbox (paper inbox).
- Review your e-mail inbox and key folders (but try to refrain from beginning the process of responding to e-mails during your planning time).
Schedule blocks of time on your calendar to work on tasks associated with your top three goals. Time blocks of 60 to 90 minutes generally work best. Ideally time blocks should be uninterrupted time behind closed doors in your office whenever possible (or away from your office).
Entering the work week with clarity on your goals, a clear plan of action, and sufficient time scheduled to work on them feels good and will almost always have a positive impact on your productivity and results for the week.
Hit the ground running on Mondays… get a positive start on your work week.
So now you guys can have a great week!
