Did you find yourself constantly pulled in multiple directions by new opportunities?
Here are some small steps by which you can have a more focussed frame of mind.
Set qualification benchmarks for new opportunities, ideas, and/or relationships. This will help keep you on track and help you assess what is worth your time.
Assess incoming requests against internal opportunities and ideas. What will make the biggest impact if you and your team complete it? What could have the biggest negative impact if it isn’t taken care of?
Choose one big idea or project at a time and focus on it. If you have a team, delegate vetting opportunities and initial tasks on other priorities to team members. This way, you stay focused.
Tackle the big things first, then fill in the rest of your time with the mid-sized and smaller jobs you need to take care of on a regular basis.
Set the objectives and intended outcome first. Then break those down into smaller tasks with goal-oriented timelines, and start assigning responsibilities.
