[ ::: ♥8 Ways to be More Productive ♥ ::: ]

Being a Lean expert, I am always obsessively spotting inefficiencies everywhere! While it can be to my own detriment, the good thing is that I’m always trying to think about how I can be more efficient. This lets me manage all the things I need to do, such as running two businesses, being a treasurer for a not for profit, investing in property, writing a book, helping my husband on his 1000 herd dairy farm, renovating etc.

So here are the 8 things which I do to better manage my time and increase productivity:

1. Synchronised Outlook

Having my email accounts connected via exchange on all my devices (iPhone, iPad and Mac – yes I am a Apple fan) is essential for me to be flexible and connected no matter where I am. This way I can type emails during what I call non-value add times for example while waiting in a queue, waiting for a flight, sitting in the car.

2. Electronic calendar with categorisation

This is a must – everything I do goes in my Outlook calendar and is synchronised across all my devices. I also colour code each entry such as travel, business meetings, networking, client work, personal appointments, etc. Birthdays also go in to reminders. This way I can easily and quickly see what I have on and where my priorities are.

3. Whiteboard

While I use tasks in Outlook or on my iPhone app to keep track of my to-do items, the best way to keep track is a Visual Management Board that I keep in my office. This is a whiteboard that I’ve split into key categories eg Property, Business, Book, Association and under each category I add in bullet points the things I need to work on. I also have a column for Today and This Week. I find this a great visual way of tracking everything and ticking things off all on one board and in one place. It also makes you feel and be in control.

7 Tips to Make a Good Impression
4. Electronic Notes

There is nothing worse than having a million post its stuck all over your desk (although I do admit that I have a few) or bits of paper everywhere. Worse still is when you are madly trying to find an important note you made amongst all that paper. I write all my notes and reminders on my devices (e.g iPhone) and it is synchronised via cloud so that I never lose any info again and I can find it very quickly if needed.

5. Go Paperless

I used to get so stressed when I would have hundreds of bills, paper documents and files lying around needing to be filed somewhere. My shelves were full of folders. Not anymore. If I need to keep a document or a bill, as soon as I receive it, I scan and file it electronically. I keep backup hard drives to ensure nothing gets lost. I also have a shredder to destroy information sensitive documents.

6. Clear Desk Policy

At the end of each day, I clear my desk and put everything away into allocated spots. This way I can start the next day with a clean slate and a fresh mind. This does wonders for your mind clarity and productivity.

10 Self Improvement Activities You Must Consider
7. Standardised Work Week

This is a big one! I set myself a standard week schedule which has Mon – Friday on it and for each day I have standard time slots allocated to specific tasks. For example Monday morning from 7-9am is blocked out for writing my book, Tues 8-10am is blocked out for writing articles, Friday from 7-8 am is blocked for my weekly Improvement Tip and 8-10am is blocked out for working on my business marketing & strategy. This way you ensure that you work on the important $1000 tasks and not just fill your day with emails, calls and possibly lots of $10 tasks. This is a fundamental way that you prioritise the right things and actually get them done rather than procrastinating.

How Can I Develop Analytical Skills
8. Small Bite Sized Chunks

I try to do a small amount of everything everyday. So rather than have a big mammoth task, I break things down into bite sized chunks and work on a part each day. This way a big daunting task becomes much more manageable. So for example everyday I allocate some time to business, to property, to my Treasurer role, to my book etc. That way it gets done a little bit each day and doesn’t feel so overwhelming. And surprisingly you get things done much quicker when they are broken down into small components and worked on one step at a time.

wow.. Barood sir ji.. great..

My take on the issue,..

1. Synchronised Outlook

I prefer to keep my personal and professional life separate. Don’t check/send office mail beyond office hours, even though it is configured to my phone.

2. Electronic calendar with categorisation

Google calender is good enough, linked to tunderbird at office and on mobile.

3. Whiteboard

Never used one. I prefer to work on my memory.

4. Electronic Notes

Google calender is again all I need.

5. Go Paperless

Scan to google drive.

6. Clear Desk Policy

I get completely confused if the desk becomes clear. But I know where every paper is kept.

7. Standardised Work Week

I don’t do office work in personal time and don’t do personal work in office time.

8. Small Bite Sized Chunks

Every work is equally important. But one needs to prioritise, depending on what is on fire.

Jobless Growth-Lifeless Growth

Now we are in the situation of jobless growth. It means that number of costly cars etc on the roads is increasing, while the number of livelihoods is depleting and as a result the amount of poverty is increasing. Suppose a factory is employing 10,000 people. It means that if each worker has a family of five, that fifty thousand people are depending on the factory for livelihood. The city of fifty thousand will need schools, colleges, hospitals, courts, lawyers, shops, markets…, easily another fifty thousand, that city being connected by transports of various types. Now suppose a management, finance etc expert arrived at the factory, and succeeded in making the factory automatic, with computers automation etc now employing only 500 people. That will be disaster to the city while the five hundred employees may be going round in very costly cars.

What will happen if the banks to window dress, as the NPAs have devastated them are merged and gradually only computers do all the work. Suppose every undertaking employs mainly computers and reduces the number of employees. But when the fixed deposits are eliminated by the elimination of employment in the economy, after all computers cannot be fixed depositors and if the few remaining fixed depositors are chased away from the banks by the tax on fake income, banks too will close down.

We are forgetting that the employees are the market, the very justification for the existence of any establishment. When the markets vanish, economic depression which is the sum total of millions of individual mental depressions, becomes the main cultural facet. Then there will be the IS economy which we are seeing in Iraq, Syria etc,when most people live in solidified terror as the normal state of mind, with girls in the slave markets etc.

Jobless Growth is the symptom of a gigantic peril. The exact phrase is the ‘loot of jobs and livelihoods’, a horrible atrocity on the people.
The phrase ‘jobless growth ‘is very deceiving. It is the euphemism for a horrible atrocity.

It is simply not possible to design and direct the economy of 130 crore people. There can be only the devising of switches that help the growth of jobs and not the intolerable situation of costly cars on the road and starvation in many homes. The biggest employer is nature and environment only and not industries and occupations that destroy the forests, rivers, air and water. On the basis of the geography of a place—the water bodies, mountains, forests, topography and other natural features, jobs that increase in number shall be devised, leaving to nature the work of creating more livelihoods. Let nature be unshackled.

Nature is the best planner and executor of its plan. Cutting away forests which simply means the elimination of photosynthesis itself must be made a very big crime. If you cannot deliberately cut the heads of people for say constructing a road, then a tree also must be given equal status, in fact a more important status because every tree performs simply hundreds of life giving functions. The problem is those that are really needed, the people that know nature first hand, have no university degrees. The people that flaunt PhDs do not know nature.
