Do the little things in life keep you in the ruts?
Learning how to prioritize work or house tasks and accomplish them can help us be more effective and more fulfilled.
1. Prioritize the things you need to do.
Every task has a level of urgency and importance. There are four possible combinations. Understanding this will help us to prioritize the things we must get done.
- Not important, not urgent
- Not important, urgent
- Important, not urgent
- Important, urgent
2. Just start...do not procrastinate.
Sometimes the best thing to do is to just get started.
3. Learn the art of self-motivation.
Do not wait for your boss to motivate you into action; you may not like how it is done. If you are self-employed or do not have direct supervision, the ability to motivate yourself is a must. Give yourself rewards for accomplishing tasks. When facing decisions about what you need to do, ask yourself what will give you the greatest sense of satisfaction or relief when it is done--then do it.
4. Focus on what you are doing and stay on task.
Plan ahead to eliminate known distractions.
5. Don't be afraid to ask for help.
It is better to finish well with a little help than it is to not finish on you own.
6. Be accountable.
Individuals that can work well without someone to be accountable to are rare.
There are many more elements that help us get things done, but these six have helped me finish many projects.
