www.BloggingYourPassion.com Do creative work first. Reactive work second.
As an entrepreneur, you get pulled in a million different directions. In order to
do what matters most, you must begin each day in your creative genius zone.
This requires discipline. For example, it's easy to want to start your day checking
email. Most of the time when I check email first thing in the morning, I end up
spending my mornings in reactive work. My most creative work, where I add the
most value, is left undone. By starting each day with a 60-90 minute focus
session, I'm able to do my most creative work first. This is what builds my
business.

www.therevolutionaryclub.com I believe that I can get any task completed (even
hated ones) in 25 minutes. This is actually completely UNtrue, but that belief
gets me to open tomato-timer.com (it's a free website), hit start on a tomato, and
then dive into whatever task I find myself procrastinating on. After 25 minutes, I
end up so absorbed I do another 25, and eventually things wind up finished. :)
It's amazing how lazy I am that I cannot set a timer myself, but tomato timer
works! As for morning rituals, I'm a big believer in starting your day off right—
so I do two things: 1. I read in the morning because that feels good to me—I
often read business related books, but I also read terrible trashy novels. Either
one wakes me up and gets me going in a nice way and 2. I open up my calender
when I'm done reading, look at what I committed to getting accomplished that
week (I commit to three big things a week), and figure out what I absolutely
need to do THAT day. I put it on the calendar and nothing else gets done until I
do that. Voila! Productivity.
