Your Personal ProductivityA Key to Success in Your Home Business
5 Easy Tips To Get You Organized For Increase Productivity By Stephen Ibrahim My early days in the home based business climate were muddled with a lot of unorganized schedules and work environment which saw my effectiveness falling short of my investment. Luckily, I got a lift away from this after attending a seminar on small business organization, planning and management for effective productivity. Since then, the tip I learned and practiced has practically increased my personal and business productivity. The purpose of getting yourself organized is for you to increase your return on the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual capital that you have invested in your home business. For every minute that you spend organizing yourself and planning out your goals saves you ten to twenty minutes in advance for the execution of your work. Here are five tips to help you achieve good organization. 1. Before you start your work each day, spend between 10 - 20 minutes of your time organizing your work space. Keep the places tidy; put every thing from papers to books in their proper filing position. The purpose for this is to enable a neat and harmonious working environment. 2. Use a notebook and planner as a tool to organize your work schedule, plans, and productive thoughts and mark out your progress. The notebook or planner serves as a place to organize your ideas and tasks so they are not running out of control through your mind while you're trying to be productive. It should be divided into sections to contain a calendar, where you designate one page for each day's activities. Write down appointments, work assignments, errands, and anything that needs to be done that day. Also have sections for ideas, future projects, goals and anything else that fits your business and family. 3. Take the time to positively think and dream. Give yourself at least 30 minutes to one hour daily for these activities for such moments bring out some of our best Ideas. Make it up a little earlier in the morning or late at night alone. Keep your notebook or organizer closer to enable record your ideas because good ideas seems to be volatile. Breathe deeply, empty your mind and enjoy the quiet moment of thoughts. 4. Beautify your work place with motivational writings, quotes, pictures and even a jar of beautiful flowers for your desk. Place these in a position to glimpse once in a while during your working hours. 5. Always prepare for the unexpected. Sometimes surprises spring up while getting yourself organized, therefore putting you on a path to changing your plans. In such an unexpected situation, do not panic, accept it and do your best. Whatever it may be, look at it carefully for it comes with an opportunity that will give you a break. Take advantage of such situations, think critically about it and reorganize yourself.
