BEING
PROACTIVE
For one week, keep a
log of your day to day activities and how you spend your time. At the end of the week
analyze your activities and determine how much time was actually
spent on your priorities and daily goals and objectives versus how
much time was spent on unimportant tasks, interruptions, phone
calls, reading email, talk at the cooler, time spent photocopying
and faxing.
Did you spend three quarters of your time
on your actual goals and priorities?
If the answer is no, then determine
what happened. Did the same outcome occur each day?
How much time by week's end was actually spent on your priorities
and objectives?
The objective of this daily record
keeping is to allow you to refine your daily activities and
determine how you can change the manner in which you work in order
to overcome those obstacles that occupy the bulk of your time and
are keeping you from reaching your full potential.
