Describe your ideal week.
What is your ideal week?
If you’re like most people, it would have something to do with a beach, a book and a drink with a tiny umbrella.
That’s not what we’re talking about.
What is your ideal work week?
According to Michael Hyatt ! an ideal week is the week he would live if he could control 100% of what happens.
He claims that you can either live on-purpose, according to a plan you’ve set. Or you can live by accident, reacting to the demands of others.
So how do you create an ideal work week?
1. List all your essential tasks. Put them on paper so you can look at them face to face. Ask yourself what is most important. Number them by priority. By doing this you are getting your brain to make sure that you find time for the tasks that are most important.
2. List your goals. Put them on paper, too, so you can see them before you and make a decision to have your ideal week reflect your intentions. Thomas Edison had a goal to create a major invention every six months and a minor invention every ten days. He did not invent on accident. He was an intentional inventor.
3. List the routines you have. Exercise, shopping for groceries or writing might be a few examples. Do you make time each day to comment on social media sites? Write that down and put a time limit on it.
4. Having all of this information on paper prepares you for creating your ideal week. Find a calendar or a template that will fit your schedule. Michael Hyatt has a great one he offers.
5. Identify themes for each day. This can help immensely in grouping certain activities today so your brain doesn’t have to switch gears so often. For example, Marie Poulin wrote identified the themes of each of her days:Sunday: Rest and plan for weekMonday: MentorshipTuesday: CreationWednesday: Mentorship
Thursday: Mastermind
Friday: New business development and content creation
Saturday: Personal day
Now, using your themes, label your days or sections of your days.
That’s all !
