There are many books on time management, goal setting and getting things done.
But there are three words – just three words – that, if you make them part of your life, will produce better results that you might have ever imagined.
Organize.
Deputize.
Supervise.
Make a list of things you need to do and prioritize them. The secret is to update this list all day in real time to focus on success.
Make someone else responsible for some of the things you need to do. Getting things accomplished requires teamwork and by asking people to help you, you empower them to succeed and do it gladly. The key is to ask them.
Once you have someone helping you, take responsibility to turn to your list and see that each task or project is being performed satisfactorily.
This short course in effective management is attainable by the end of the day if you commit these three things to memory.
“Surround yourself with the best people you can find, delegate authority, and don’t interfere as long as the policy you’ve decided upon is being carried out” – Ronald Reagan
