Create a new habit. This is 10 minutes of daily focus before you do anything else. Before you check your email, before you do anything that will lead to more and more distractions that make it easy for you to forget what's essential. A simple way of structuring your daily focus time is to ask yourself these three questions:
- What do I need before I leave the house today?
- What is urgent to get done today?
- What project is urgent to get done this week?
Here are some tips for making this happen in your life:
- Create a journal that has these three questions on the cover and open it first thing in the morning and write out your responses.
- Write these three questions on a large white board that you will see in the morning.
- Write these three questions as a reminder that pops up on your cell phone or laptop to keep you focused.
- Email yourself these questions daily.
- Create a poster that includes these questions with an attractive design that you see every morning.
