Is it Urgent or Important?
Is it Urgent or Important?
by David Ledoux
When it comes to building big downlines, one of the most common excuses I hear from people is "I don't have the time!"
When I sit down to coach them, I find a shocking statistic....they have the exact same 168 hours in the week that top earners have!
One of the secrets to productivity is scheduling your time, and then protecting it fanatically. In scheduling that time, please, please, please differentiate between URGENT and IMPORTANT tasks.
For example, right now take a deep breath and hold it. In about a minute or so, it will become important to exhale and take another breath...but keep holding your breath. Hold it....hold it....hold it...how are you doing so far?
After about a minute and a half, not only will it be important to breathe again, it will become urgent. You can tell the difference by stress levels in your body....feel the burn in your lungs yet?
Keep holding your breath until the end of this article.
When it comes to making calls to prospects, its almost always important, but not urgent. Urgent tasks stress our immune systems, and give us anxiety. Important tasks make us feel accomplished when they are done. Most people who cry, "I don't have any time" are being bogged down by the urgent, instead of living in the important.
Is it important or urgent to tell your spouse and kids that you love them?
How are your lungs? Is it urgent or important to breathe again?
I appreciate you...live in the important, not the urgent!
