HOW TO MANAGE YOUR CALENDAR LIKE A CEO?

-
Do you know what I check more than my social media, stats, and emails combined? My calendar- it’s that important to me.

 For many years I didn’t use a calendar. I felt a calendar kind of “trapped” me and I didn’t like having my day planned out that granular. But I’ve become busier the past few years. I knew I had a problem when I kept missing different meetings. My life became busier than I could handle and having a to do list wasn’t enough. So I spent a few months trying to master my calendar and it has paid off dividends. Literally everything is on my calendar: When I work, when do I eat, my habits, meetings, routines, etc. My calendar is the the “GPS” for me to hit my goals. We all get 24 hours in a day, whats you thought or plan on it? Any best practices? Share for a best balanced-work-life :) Here are few of my best practices: - Limit The Amount of Time You Waste - Set Aside Time for Planning - Set Realistic Gaps Between Events - Learn to switch between tasks (work or personal) Inspired by: @ Charles Ngo calendar todolist schedule plan habits routines manage getitdone productive planning howto goals bestpractices

Its all how you plan it!! Benefits of Home Gym 1. Home gyms can save time.  Daily exercise at a gym often requires a significant investment of time. In addition to the time spent on the workout, you’ll have to drive to and from the gym.  A  home gym can save you a significant amount of time commuting to the gym. You also won’t have to spend any time waiting to use gym equipment. You can use this extra time to exercise longer or free up your day.   2. Home gyms can help avoid distractions.  Commercial gyms come with a wide range of distractions. There are other people that may try to talk to you as you exercise, and it may be difficult to focus with all of the noise. With a home gym, you can stay focused on your workout by eliminating distractions. There won’t be anyone around to talk to you between sets, and you won’t be distracted by the noise of weight clanging or getting dropped on the floor.   3. Home gyms can save money.  Although gym memberships may seem like a go

Self-Directed Learning: A Four-Step Process Learning independently can be challenging, even for the brightest and most motivated students. As a means of better understanding the processes involved in this mode of study, this learning Tip outlines key components of four key stages to independent learning, known as self-directed learning: being ready to learn, setting learning goals, engaging in the learning process, and evaluating learning.
