If you work from home or aspire to work from home then you know the challenge of keeping yourself motivated every day. There is no boss looking over your shoulder or structured office atmosphere to keep you on task. If you are working part time to supplement your income or to get your online business off the ground then your time is even more limited. You may get distracted and watch some youtube or play some video games. Try this 60 second Success Strategy that will help you stay on task all day and make some money.
Get Ready..
Go to your work spaced and clear out all the distractions. Turn off the music, shut the door, throw out the trash. Remove anything from your work space that is apt to become a distraction during your work time. Then pull out a blank piece of paper.
Get Set..
Take your watch, clock, hourglass or anything that buzzes and set it for 60 seconds. I learned this method from my kids. When I wanted them to get something done we would set the timer and make it a fun game. They would race against the clock to complete the task. It is a lot of fun!
Go!
Now take 60 seconds and write all the tasks that you would like to complete today. Start with the big ones like finish that big report and work your way toward the non urgent items. You can also include things that are challenging to complete like doing research or completing some reading or a training. At the end of 60 seconds you should have a full page of items to get done.
Get Ready.. Get Set.. Go!
How Did You Do?
If you completed your list then congratulate yourself with a victory lap around your desk. Once you have caught your breath take a look at your list. You can write little notes next to the items on the list that indicate their importance. Which ones do you need to complete first?
I suggest starting with a couple of the easy items such as send an email to Victoria about the marketing launch. If you do a couple of easy items first and check them off then you will be inspired to complete more items. I like the rush of having checked something off the list.
Once you have checked off a couple of the little items you should be inspired to work on some of the more challenging projects. It helps me to set a time limit. For instance, I will complete the writing of the new web page before lunch. By giving yourself a time to complete something by you will be motivated to get started.
As you are doing work today you can put items on your list for tomorrow. You may not be inspired to do them today but if they are on your list for tomorrow then you will be motivated to do them that day.
Even if you don t complete all the items in the time you had planed at least you got started. Practice this method every day. Remember that you always get less done in a day then you plan but you can accomplish more in a year then you can imagine.
