Gary Loper (Twitter: @GaryLoper) www.GaryLoper.com The most important Time Management strategy I have
discovered is investing 1% of your day in scheduling the next day's activities.
That is only 14 minutes a day. Surely investing 14 minutes before bed is a very
beneficial habit. Scheduling the next day, just before going to bed, has a couple
of time saving benefits.1. Your next day's activities will be prioritized, knowing
what needs to be accomplished. 2. Your mind is relaxed, and you are much less
apt to toss and turn trying to go to sleep, thinking about all the stuff you need to
do. 3. Your subconscious mind is working while you sleep on the best methods
to achieve completion of your tasks. 4. It's been said that investing 14 minutes in
scheduling, creates an extra 56 minutes of productivity in your day. Extra
productivity, extra and better sleep, peace of mind, and focused attention are all
available in investing 1% of your day in prioritizing the next day's revenue and
goal accomplishing activities.

Nathalie Lussier (Twitter: @NathLussier) www.AmbitionAlly.com I set five overarching goals per quarter for myself and
my team. I write these down on a notecard and keep it by my computer or
workstation at all times. Whenever I find myself wondering what to do next, or
if the thing I'm working on is the right thing...I look over my five goals and
priorities, and if it's not contributing to these priorities then it doesn't need to
happen. This helps me eliminate a lot of the "cool but not important" things that
might come up in the course of the day or week.
