Toby Salgado (Twitter: @superagentslive) www.tobysalgado.com Staying on task and being productive go hand in glove.
The two tips I use to achieve high level productivity is time-blocking and
batching. I block out an hour to 3 hours to completely devote to a single task.
That is the one singular task I work on during that time blocked session. The
other thing I do is batch similar tasks into one day. By batching similar items I
can reach a flow state much easier and switching from task to task is much more
efficient.

one week at a time. It is almost impossible to move too much farther in that
much detail, but you must know the next 7 days. Every Sunday night we sit
down together and look at the week. We all have 168 hours (from the janitor at
the white house to the president, everyone), but what priorities must fill those
blocks of time. Your schedule is a list of priorities. Block off the hours you
sleep, the half hours you eat, the "musts" like go to work or take kids to sports.
Whatever is left is yours. We start with family. Time each day with each other
and our kids. Then we schedule time for self. Then our business. If there is time
left for other stuff, we prioritize the activity and fill it in. Then stick to it and do
it again next week. e built our business while working full time and raising kids.
Because we set priorities. You schedule will make or break your dreams. If it's
REALLY important to you, you will find a way to put it on that schedule. If it's
not, you will find an excuse and it won't make the cut. After that, leverage every
dime you have to outsource and buy other people's time. That is the key.
Organize your 168 hours, then BUY hours from others to grow.
