Daily LEADERSHIP Tip / 5 Quick Schedule Tips

Day 12
We get busier as we become more successful.  So how do you manage your calendar in a way that provides LEADERSHIP Accountability?  Here are five quick tips and a WARNING to help you:

  • Focus on what is most important
  • Be able to confirm at a glance that your schedule has some balance
  • Cover your personal as well as your business priorities

Tip #1:  Define categories for your calendar events, such as Business Development, Date Nights, Education, Exercise, Marketing, My Leadership, Travel Time...

Tip #2:  Color-code your categories so at a glance you can discern the balance of your activities and whether your most important tasks are scheduled.

Tip #3:  Schedule your exercise time, including any travel or time necessary to shower and change your clothes.

Tip #4:  Schedule recurring events, such as team huddles, prayer/study, time to write / review / report on / submit weekly 3 Strands or daily W.I.N., and other events that must occur regularly.

NOTE:  Maybe your "laugh until it hurts" time that I recommended yesterday should be a recurring event...

Tip #5:  Leave open time in your calendar.

WARNING:  If you are not keeping up with your schedule, then make changes to how you are managing your time immediately.  As one client said recently, otherwise "...it's like you are in a storeroom and items start cascading on you from above as the top shelves collapse.

  Let me know if you need help.
