Secrets of the ridiculously successful
Watching ultra-successful people gives you clues as to how they tick and how you can succeed, too.
Here are a few highlights:
Focus on one thing at a time. Block out your time in minutes, not hours. Get enough sleep and enough fuel.
Make time for dinner and play. There’s only so much time in a day. Allocate it well.
Use a notebook. Notes help you remember details and free your mind for the most important things.
Check email only a few times a day. Ideal is three times a day: morning, noon and night.
Avoid meetings. If you must have one, make it brief.
Turn down almost everything. If something is not a “Hell, yeah!” then it’s a no.
Delegate almost everything. Don’t think: How can I do this? Think: How can we get this done?
