If you're like me, you're likely to fall into the trap of productive procrastination. It's the type of procrastination that keeps you busy with one thing (usually busy work or menial tasks that are low on the priority list) to avoid doing things that actually move the needle forward in business and life. It's the type of procrastination that most work-from-home business owners are likely to fall into at home because distractions are EVERYWHERE.
In business, we measure our productivity based on our goals. How do you determine if it was a productive year? I hope you're not tallying how many menial tasks you crossed off each day. I hope you're measuring how much growth and progress toward your goals those tasks have actually produced for your business and life. And if you set the wrong goals, you could easily waste a whole year moving your business in the wrong direction and realizing that you didn't accomplish much that was worth celebrating.
With this in mind, your ability to set strategic and aligned goals can make or break your productivity as a business owner. Productivity starts with clarity on what you want to accomplish and as the CEO of your business, you're responsible for setting that vision and clarifying the direction. So it's really important that when you're setting goals, you're setting yourself up for the most productive goal setting session you could possibly have, right?
Tune in to this quick tip episode to hear about the way your environment affects your productivity when it comes to goal setting and how to curate your environment for a productive goal setting session. Grab your favorite note taking medium and join me!
