here's some ideas on how to structure
your day for maximum productivity
performance and output Benny from
Facebook recently asked me how do you
structure your day so here are some tips
to help you structure your day to be
more productive and successful number
one every minute spent in planning saves
10 minutes in execution or getting the
job done so the most important thing you
can do is plan your day preferably the
night before sit down with a piece of
paper and write down everything that you
have to do the coming day it should be
the last thing you do at the end of the
day now if for any reason you don't do
this then the first thing you do in the
morning before you check your email your
phone calls newspapers first thing you
do in the morning is make a list of
everything that you have to do bad day
once you have a list you have a track to
run on writing down a list clarifies
your thinking writing down a list forces
you to think at a higher level if you
are working from a list you increase
your productivity and output by 25% the
first day all successful people work
from lists and all successful people
with regard to their projects were from
check lists a checklist is a list of
everything organized in sequence and you
go down the checklist now the second way
that you can organize your day is to set
priorities on your list before you begin
don't just rush into it look over the
list and apply the 80/20 rule if you
have 10 items to do on your list two
will be more valuable than the other
eight put together sometimes it's the
90/10 rule if you have 10 items on your
list one will be important more
important that all the others put
together go down on your list and ask
yourself this question if I could only
do one thing on this list before I was
called out of town for it for a month
what one task what I want to be sure to
complete now in my life I'm called out
of town for a week two weeks three weeks
sometimes a month all the time last fall
I was out of town and traveling in 15
countries over 36 days so I have to look
at my work list before I go and I have
to get my most important tasks done so
one
you identify this task that leads to the
next way to organize your day is begin
immediately on your most important task
and then stay with it until it's
complete all of success in life comes
from project completion it comes from
taking jobs and a project is called a
multi task job it means there's several
little jobs within the larger job and
what you do is you organize your
projects by sequence the checklist and
then you start on your most important
project and then you stay with that
project until it's complete this process
is called single handling it's the most
powerful success strategy that you can
use in managing your time you can
actually increase your productivity by
50% by simply starting and completing
your most important tasks first thing
every day so if you can do those three
things start with a list organize the
list by priority and then start on and
complete your most important tasks you
can double and triple your productivity
