Use these 6 productivity strategies to Seize the Day

1. PLAN YOUR DAY
If you dont schedule your day, you will be pulled in all directions
There are many planners - I use Brendon Burchard's High Performance planner (you can find it on Amazon)
It breaks the day into 30 min segments
Small chunks of time but allows some wiggle room

2. FIGURE OUT YOUR BEST TIME OF THE DAY
If you're a morning person, make sure you block out the morning hours
This is the time to attack your most complex tasks
When your tired later in the day, work on the simpler items

4. HAVE A PERFORMANCE PARTNER
Once a week, get on a call with another highly motivated, productive person.
Talk about your wins, losses, projects etc.
Interacting with others that motivate you is a great habit to get into
and also is a relaxing break from your work schedule

At the end of each day or week, take some time look back at how your day or week went.

With the end of the year here, it's the perfect time to analyze your past year
What went well?

What is worth spending the most time on this week?

6. REMEMBER YOUR ULTIMATE GOAL AND YOUR WHY
When motivation is lacking or you're feeling exhausted, remember why you work as hard as you do.
Your family, your future, your reputation, giving back...
Whatever it is that is driving you, remember that it is all worth it
