Top Productivity Killers for Businessmen and Women in 2020
Rebecca Appleton • 27 December 2019
With the year drawing to a close and many of us reflecting on our 2019 there will be those among us that feel we didn’t achieve enough.
As a result, those individuals will be looking to sprint in to 2020 with a view of maximising their potential and getting things done!
In line with this, we have outlined some of the typical productivity killers that you’ll want to avoid in 2020 if you’re going to guarantee success for yourself and your business as we move into the new calendar year. Here’s some of the productivity killers you’ll want to avoid at all costs:
Failing to Plan (Daily)
We all need a plan. It is our planning that will often ultimately lead to our success. Our plan is our blueprint for getting from A to B and ultimately achieving what we’re setting out to accomplish. Not having a plan is a plan to fail as they say but it’s more than that. Sometimes we have plans, but those plans are too grand or too loose. Having a plan for 2020 is great. Mark down the major milestones you’re setting out to achieve, you need this to stay on track. But there’s more to it than that.
In fact, it’s being able to plan your time and your tasks daily that will genuinely transform your productivity and really keep you on track. One of the best habits for successful people is daily planning. Look to set out your tomorrow the night before by writing a list of tasks or items that you need to take care of the coming day. You’ll sleep better for having a plan and you’ll wake knowing what the day has in store for you.
Embrace the Morning
It’s really a case of self-discipline for many but the most successful and productive people in this world start their day early. The golden hours of the morning separate people, while you’re still sleeping or reading social media stories from the comfort of your bed, others are already out ticking items off their daily list.
Set that alarm early and aim to have half your task list completed by lunchtime.
Don’t Waste Time Complaining
It seems obvious doesn’t it? But many of us are guilty of wasting time complaining or venting about the tough situations we find ourselves in instead of really attacking and solving the problem. Ask yourself, are you just talking about the problems and issues you’re facing over and over or are you tackling them proactively?
The longer you spend in self pity the more time you’re wasting overcoming your obstacles and moving on from them to more important things. Accept the hand you’re dealt, learn from mistakes and continue to progress.
