LIVING LIFE BY DEFAULT NOT DESIGN (Part 2)

in #life7 years ago
  1. Set goals.
    A vision without action is a mere dream. So break your vision down into shorter-term goals that enable you to focus your time , energy and resources most effectively. Set deadlines and schedule actions in your calendar to achieve the “vital few” lest it get crowded out by the “trivial many.”

  2. Say no more often.
    Saying yes is always easier (in the short term) than saying no. It’s what people want to hear! It’s also why people operating on autopilot reported saying yes to things they actually didn’t want to do approximately four times each day.
    Sometimes you’ve got to say no to the good to say yes to the great. So dial up your courage and start saying no far more than you have been, knowing that you aren’t serving anyone when you sell out on yourself.
Sort:  

What you wrote about saying no is true. I have said yes twice today already when all I wanted to say was no. Then I ended up wasting my time on unnecessary things, time I could have used to be productive than. Tanx a lot. I have learnt something new today

lol. saying no can be hard, but then people would want to exploit you. thanks bro
