How to Plan Your Work Day (Set yourself up for less stress)

Shh I've got a question for you. What would it feel like to have a stress-free workday?

What would it feel like if you are absolutely in control of everything that was on your plate? Now I can't speak for you, but I can speak for my clients—it feels great.

It feels absolutely wonderful to be in control of your calendar, your to-do list, and all of the commitments that you have on your plate. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting that you're not a high-performing professional.

You may be a business owner, an entrepreneur, or maybe you manage many other individuals. But you probably clicked on this video for a reason.

You've probably clicked on this video because you're looking for a way to improve your productivity. You're looking for more control in your workday.

Challenge

Well, I want to help you do just that. So you're probably wondering, can I help you feel more in control of your day in just a short video?

Well the answer is yes, but I'm going to ask something of you. I'm going to ask for your commitment to actually put these ideas into practice.

You know you can watch countless YouTube videos. You can read endless time management books and other blogs on the subject of productivity.

But if you don't put things into action, you're not gonna see those results. So here's my challenge: tonight I'd like you to spend five minutes, just five minutes, planning out your day tomorrow.

I want you to sit down with your calendar, your to-do list, and any other deadlines or commitments that you have coming up. And I don't want you to spend any more than five minutes with them.

Conclusion

In fact, to make sure that you stay within that deadline, I would encourage you to take out your smartphone and set a timer for five minutes. Not only will it keep you within that timeframe, it'll actually make it a little more fun.

Can you challenge yourself to spend just five minutes with your to-do list? Remember, if you fail to plan, plan to fail.

So the choice is yours. You can do the same old thing that you've always done, or you can try something new so you can be in control.

And I'm only asking for five minutes. Five minutes to plan your day ahead and set yourself up for success.

Now once you've fulfilled this challenge, I'd love to hear from you in the comments below. And I'm sure there's some of you who have already applied this technique as a part of your day today.

Thank you so much for watching. I hope you subscribe right here to the Simpletivity channel.
