What Three Things Should You Do Today?
If you had to do just three things today, what would they be?
I’m not asking you to create a set of massive achievements. It could be just be:
- Making contact with an important prospect.
- Actually booking a promised job.
- Asking for an introduction.
The three most important things are often the ones that get overlooked.
How often do you get to the end of the day and say “Oh, I forgot to contact so and so?” I know I do! Because they are small, they get left behind in all the firefighting.
Here’s a way to solve this problem.
Write down the three things you plan to do.
Research shows that writing down your goals means that you are much more likely to achieve them. I recommend that every day you write down three things you must do. Most people who do this find that they end up achieving more.
I call this technique envelope planning.
