    Essentials for Business Growth

    Release Date: 10/16/2020

    Duration: 23 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Special guest today: Karl Pontau How to network effectively Darren Hardy Doing a ton of reading. I made a list for people to use: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10pg-ctuY5fxRwlA8ZNCC38VEEQkQAGnamjHPChYHOl0/edit#gid=0 I’ve been working on scaling my business during the past few months. Delegating is essential to that. On two of my current projects, I’ve delegated all of the production work, and am only doing project management and creative direction. We all only have 24 hours in a day, and can’t do everything ourselves. Delegating is a must for any entrepreneur who wants to succeed. Covey’s quadrant method Not everything gets done. I have to say no to some things. Or delegate them. I’m very coachable, and have benefited from working with coaches as I’m growing my business. By working with somebody who helps hold me accountable, I’m much better at setting goals that will not just force me to grow, but also actually take the steps to achieve them. Already worked from home. Lots of networking on Zoom. www.squashandstretch.net --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    How to Get More Done & Take Control of Your Life

    Release Date: 10/1/2020

    Duration: 19 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Today, I want to focus on YOU and the fact that all of you can actually control your lives even though sometimes you may not think so. Is there a part of your life or business that you feel is out of control or for which there is never enough time? Or that if you had, just a few more hours that everything would be great? If so, keep listening. So the first step is to look at your life in detail, all 24 hours in a day, seven days in a week. How should we organize those days and hours carefully? You should be aware that you can increase your productivity and your efficiency by about 25 percent when you have a schedule for every day. By carefully doing so, you actually will have enough time to do most, if not all the things that you need to do. Therefore, the key is to plan and develop an extremely detailed schedule for every day. One of my mentor coaches suggests that you pick one set time a week, say Friday before you close the office, to block 30 minutes to plan the coming week. Include all the things that you have to do for your job, your family, social and other things. Make it comprehensive, including absolutely everything, and the more detailed you are, the easier it is to follow. This allows you to begin the weekend with peace of mind, knowing exactly what the coming week looks like. Those of you in industries where you at time have to put out fires, allow for oops time, a 1-2 hour window that’s open, nothing is scheduled for it. This way, if a true emergency arises – and it is up to you to decide if the incident needs your immediate attention – then you can stop what you’re doing and take care of this emergency. During the oops time, you can finish the task you were working on when this incident interrupted. However, make sure to keep these incidents to an absolute minimum. Taking a lunch break, away from the computer and phone, could be a simple start. People who do this are much more productive in the afternoon than those who don’t. It will take discipline and commitment and you need to put it on your schedule, but eventually, it’ll become a habit. Have date night monthly, ideally weekly, block it on your calendar, treat it with same importance as client appointment. You can always make more money but not more time.

    Maximizing Productivity in a Remote Work World

    Release Date: 9/17/2020

    Duration: 24 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Special guest Victor Mataraso with Reliable Receptionist and Victory Workspace in Walnut Creek entire business model is predicated on supporting business owners and entrepreneurs, assist them in becoming more professional, productive and profitable. Receptionists allow them to enhance their professional image, improve customer service and manage their workload. Victory Workspace gives them a physical place to base their business, be more productive with their work and a professional place to meet with clients. Great resource: California Employers Association, business networking groups. All our core business functions are essentially delegated. I don’t answer phones very well, nor am I fit for sitting in an office 8 hours a day, so I’ve hired good people who do those things better than I. distinguish between the Urgent and Important. It’s essential to carve out focus time to do those things that are essential to running the business, but may not be flashing red in your face. Try to limit my roles to the things I enjoy. Assign key roles to others and do regular check-ins. I’m a believer in a quote attributed to Abraham Lincoln that says: Plans are worthless, but planning is priceless. Anyone who set goals for 2020 has likely thrown that page out the window. Nevertheless, I believe the process of creating strategy and communicating it clearly to your people is essential. Covid has been particularly challenging for a large segment of our business. Operating a shared workspace during a pandemic when nobody wants to be within 6 feet of another is more challenge than I bargained for. However, uniquely positioned to benefit from a recession and an increase in remote work once the fear of the virus subsides. https://reliablereceptionist.com https://www.victoryworkspace.com --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    What Every Small Business Owner Should Know!

    Release Date: 9/9/2020

    Duration: 20 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: I am saddened when a potential new client comes to me & I see that their company is either a sole-proprietor or an LLC. This saddens me because their CPA or tax professional hasn’t had the conversation with them about converting to an S-Corp. I am saddened because CPA’s know better & tax professionals should know better, but nope, they are allowing their client to over pay their taxes. You see, sole-proprietors and/or LLC’s pay an additional 15% SE tax on their net income & If their net income is over $18k, they are giving too much to the IRS out of their pocket. If they were in a S-Corp, they wouldn’t have to give it away. I help small businesses understand this and reposition themselves for thousands of dollars in savings each year. I wish I had known about S-Corporations & why there is such a huge tax advantage to operating as one. For years I overpaid my taxes. It’s a struggle but at the same time it is rewarding to groom someone to take care of my clients the same way I would take care of them. It less about delegating, it’s more about team building. Unfortunately the adage “the best laid plans...” is true in my case. Sometimes I prioritize by logic and then I have to re-prioritize by fire & often that is in the same day. In my profession, I am deadline driven. Lists, lots of lists, write it down. In my office we use slack to communicate lists to each other. I also look at a task at hand & ask myself, who else can do this task? We start with long term goals: 1. Overall desire for the company 2. 2 year goal for the company 3. What do we want this time next year as a company 4. What do we have to do now to reach goals set for the beginning of next year With the advancement & availability of connecting through technology, I am able to provide my clients with the same high quality service I provided prior to COVID. I serve clients worldwide, so I have used screen-sharing technology and secure client portals for some time. On a rare occasion when a client just must come into see me, we sanitize and social distance and wear masks if need be. Not enough hours in the day. I am very passionate about helping people and that takes time. #1 by far is Spencer Johnson, author of “Who Moved My Cheese.” He wrote one line that changed my professional life & that I still draw on to this day: “What would I do if I wasn’t afraid?” Another one is T.Harv Eker - Enlightened Warrior Training: Courage is not action without fear, Courage is action in the FACE of fear.

    TEEDUP for marketing success

    Release Date: 9/4/2020

    Duration: 21 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: The value that we bring is offering businesses a proven, efficient way to retain the best marketing services and technology at no extra cost. I wish that I had known to focus on the goal and not chase the money.  If you obsess about offering people the absolute best solutions, the money will take care of itself. Delegating is at the core of the efficiency of our business.  We control the over-arching customer experience by connecting or delegating the work to the exact right marketing and business development professionals. I prioritize by deciding, before the day begins, 3-5 projects that I must get done that day.  They are generally large, big picture projects.  Important conversations, directional decisions, business partnership opportunities. These are what I focus the core of my time on.  Then I delegate or field more minor tasks myself.  At the end of the day, I want all these minor tasks and urgent matter to be resolved or in someone else’s court so that my time and energy is freed up to focus on the important matters.  Just because something is urgent, doesn’t mean it is important. I need to be better at this.  We write down goals and constantly reassess to make sure that the direction of that goal is still the direction we want to be headed.  Right now our written goals are too financially consumed, we need to refine this. Biggest challenge is maintaining focus.  I have a tendency to get excited about the next shiny thing.  There are so many things that we want to do and so many opportunities.  That energy serves us well if it is focused.  We have the ability to be really creative and discover and build synergies, but sometimes that energy is better channeled elsewhere. https://teedupmarketing.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-e-wood/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    How to plan your ultimate day

    Release Date: 8/21/2020

    Duration: 22 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Today, I’d like to dive in a little more deeply into this complex topic. I have already shared with you my unique and wholistic way to goal setting, a way that clearly differentiates me from most business coaches because I believe that business and personal life are intrinsically  intertwined and cannot be separated. That belief and conviction led to my business name: Balance 6. If you listened to my podcast on goal setting you remember the 6, here they are again: time and money, health and relationship, self-improvement and higher power or spirituality. If we balance those 6 we are at our best, as business owner, entrepreneur, employer, boss, spouse, parent, friend, colleague, Let me illustrate my point about a client of mine: Working crazy long days, 12-14 hours, the to do list gets longer not shorter, there’s no time for lunch, clients demand immediate attention, I get interrupted by phone call, email or an employee walking into my office needing my help, leads to stress Here are some questions to ponder if you want to plan your ultimate day: –       What must I accomplish today? –       What project do I need to focus on? –       Who do I need to follow up with today? –       What do I need to do to make progress? –       What prospect do I need to call today? –       What appointments do I have, need to make? –       How will I improve my health today? –       What meals will I have and where? –       What time will I get up, go to bed? –       What phone calls do I need to make? –       What spiritual activity will I do today:? –       What will I do for my spouse, family? –       What will I delegate? –       What will I do for self? –       2 most important outcomes for day? Block 15 min on your schedule to answer these questions, feel free to change or edit them, but be sure to sue them when planning your days and weeks.

    Focus on Key Results

    Release Date: 8/14/2020

    Duration: 19 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Why are you getting paid? key question for business owners If you’re not crystal clear why you are getting paid and what results your company expects of you, what you need to accomplish on a daily, weekly, monthly basis, it is very hard for you to perform at your best. 5-7 key result areas. These areas represent the results you absolutely, positively have to get to fulfill your responsibilities and make your maximum contribution to your business. key result areas of managers: planning, organizing, staffing, delegating, supervising, measuring and reporting key results of sales people: prospecting, building rapport and trust, identifying needs, presenting persuasively, answering objections, closing the sale and getting resales and referrals. once again we go back to CLARITY and how critical it is, high performers clearly know their key result areas. All employees and team members MUST be able to clearly identify their key result areas AND communicate them with others in the company. If everybody in the organization clearly understands everyone’s key result areas and responsibilities the productivity will skyrocket. hiring the right people and effectively DELEGATING make a list, grade yourself, where are you weak and underperforming? Make plan to change this, because poor performance often leads to procrastination, the better you become at a particular skill, the more motivated you’ll be to perform that skill and the less likely to procrastinate on it What one skill, if developed and done in an excellent fashion, would have the greatest positive impact on my business? One of the best and fastest ways to stop procrastination and get more done faster is to become absolutely excellent at your key result areas. #ChristophNauer #Balance6 #smallbusiness #entrepreneurs #timemanagement #businesscoaching #business #professionals #relationship #money #health #selfcare#productivity #coaching #consulting #mentoring #teambuilding #leadership https://balance6.biz/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    Best Way to Prioritize

    Release Date: 7/23/2020

    Duration: 16 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: The more thought you invest in planning and setting priorities BEFORE you begin to work, the better you get at getting more done faster, The more important and valuable as task is to you, the more you should be motivated to get it done and overcome procrastination My mentor Brian Tracy suggests the ABCDE method to prioritize, he says: it is the most powerful priority setting tool that you can use every day. This technique is so simple and effective, that if applied consistently, can make you one of the most efficient and effective person in your field. Here is how it works: write down everything you have to do for the coming days. Next, you place an A, B, C, D, or E next to every item before you start with the first task. Items with an A are defined as something very important, something that absolutely has to get done, not negotiable.  Doing this task will have very serious positive consequences if you do it OR very serious negative ones if not done. B items are tasks that you SHOULD do, but have only mild consequences, these as your tadpoles, If not done, someone may be inconvenienced or unhappy if you don’t do the task, but it is definitely NOT as important as an A task, The Rule: never do a B task as long as there’s an A task left to be done C tasks are items that would be nice to do but there aren’t really any consequences to speak of. These activities really don’t have an affect on your business D tasks are items that are meant to be delegated, things that could AND should be done by somebody else. The rule: delegate anything and everything that someone else can do, this allows you to free up time to take care of A tasks that can only be done by you E items are tasks to be eliminated, delete them from your to do list Once you start applying this method of prioritizing you will be organized and ready to get more IMPORTANT things done faster. The Key to making the ABCDE method work for you is to discipline yourself to start immediately, not tomorrow, NOW. #ChristophNauer #Balance6 #smallbusiness #entrepreneurs #timemanagement #businesscoaching #business #professionals #relationship #money #health #selfcare#productivity #coaching #consulting #mentoring #teambuilding #leadership https://balance6.biz/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    Money Match Maker

    Release Date: 7/20/2020

    Duration: 18 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Special guest today: Anna Swartz-Lopez with Maestro Capital Solutions, called the "Money Matchmaker", I  connecting business owners and real estate investors with lenders, leading clients through the lending process, like a realtor leads you through the process of buying a home. Analogy: completing tasks is like trying to fill a basket with large, medium, and small sized rocks. If you fit the large ones in first, everything fits, but if you put the small ones in first, you run out of room. It is hard to tell if I am making progress or just spinning my wheels, unless I have a goal to move toward. Separating business and personal finances is crucial for financial health and well-being.

    Duration: 20 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Today’s guest is Brady Thomas, an award winning photographer specializing in fine art portraits for women, men, children, families, including pets & horses. She offers well crafted headshots and business portraits that effectively your communicate brand. She conducts extensive interviews in her pre-photoshoot consultations to discover who her clients are, and what is important to them. After years of education, studying the masters, and honing her craft, she knows it’s not about her. This is an experience resulting in legacy heirlooms that will last for many generations. This is about her client’s relationships, family, children. This is about triggering a memory and bringing a smile when her clients walk past a portrait hung in their home. Money and Self Value If you believe your product and service are at a high level, then just charge for it! Sounds easy, right? Sometimes not. Self-doubt, Compare ourselves and pricing to others, Imposter Syndrome. You are your brand. Believe in yourself & Stand in your worth. Money is simply a form of energy. A legitimate transaction is an EQUAL exchange of service for value. If not equal, you lose energy and you damage your brand > damaged self-value > Spiral. Give 100%, ask 100% in return. Do the work, get the chops. Learn to feel joy in the ask, “That will be $15,000 Mrs. Smith. How would you like to pay for that?” You are asking to close the circle of energy between service and value. Try to stay in language of Thrive, not just Survive. Serve from the Heart, and Charge for It. Be of service, but don’t discount. It's not being of service, and It’s not sustainable business. Some potential clients budgeting right now, and that’s ok, but don’t guilt sell. Instead, offer more service. Give more. Get creative, but don’t undercharge. That's Survival language. https://bradythomasphotography.com/ https://www.facebook.com/bradythomasphotography/ https://www.instagram.com/bradythomasphotography/ https://www.instagram.com/fineartfurbaby/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/bradythomasphotography/ #ChristophNauer #Balance6 #smallbusiness #entrepreneurs #timemanagement #businesscoaching #business #professionals #relationship #money #health #selfcare#productivity #coaching #consulting #mentoring #teambuilding #leadership --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    How to Tame the “Inner Critic”

    Release Date: 6/6/2020

    Duration: 15 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Special guest today: Trina Swerdlow, BFA, CCHT, Transformation Coach, Trainer, & the Author of: Stress Reduction Journal. Her work is purpose driven, tough childhood, “suffered in silence.” This is WHY, she loves helping people find their voices & step into their personal power. Two KEYS to make sure business owners get everything done: 1) Create a GOAL LIST each week including Personal &  Business, Check off goals after completion, highest priorities in red. 2) Get an “accountability partner” Solid support helps business owners AVOID feeling isolated. TIPS to Survive & Thrive: Survive: Stay grounded in body & to earth. “Go inward before going outward.” - Check in with ourselves. Meditate. Listen to that still small voice, connect with beingness (“human beingness”) to avoid “human doing" Thrive: Stay visible & connected to tribe (customers & community) Connectedness is KEY—inwardly & outwardly. How to Tame the “Inner Critic:” Overcoming negativity begins with ourselves & our internal dialogue. Illustration used: Poster 1) man working, trying to do some productive, writing, on man’s shoulder sits gnarly monkey telling him “you are not a good writer,  not smart enough, etc. Poster 2) same man, now monkey is OFF his back & on its back (belly up), man is holding monkey tenderly in his arms (next to his heart) & looking in its eyes, man asks for more information. “Why are you so angry at me? What are you REALLY afraid of?” Trina has helped many people tame their inner critics & every inner critic she’s EVER encountered is simply trying to protect the person. Ex: from failure and/or humiliation. Explore what you can learn about your own negative self-talk. Begin to look at this “monkey mind” from a perspective of compassion & curiosity -- knowing its simply trying to help you survive -- it’s a protector. After you begin to tame the monkey & see its core intention through caring “soft eyes,” you’ll make room to develop a positive inner voice that reminds you of your wonderful strengths & your MANY accomplishments! Resources: Stress Reduction Journal, Guided Meditations. Create “inner” Sacred Place to relax into & get nourished from the inside out.  In times of stress, keep coming back to the PRESENT MOMENT & spend TIME & ENERGY taking good care of ourselves, our loved ones, & the world at large. ~ The world needs ALL of us to COME TOGETHER ~ www.TrinaSwerdlow.com 3 FREE on homepage, quick read e-book: “Weathering Life’s Storms: 8 Powerful KEYS to Increase Your Resiliency.” Click here: Stress Reduction Journal—Meditate & Journal Your Way to Better Health Click here for CALMING MP3 Audio: Relaxing Guided Meditations --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    Long term thinking improves short term decision making

    Release Date: 5/29/2020

    Duration: 16 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: think long-term when planning goals and deciding on daily tasks, how successful people manage time, how to get rid of time wasters, stop doing low level time consuming activities so you can maximize results. superior thinker: Ability to accurately predict the consequences of doing or not doing a task After 50 years of research by Dr. Edward Banfield of Harvard University he concluded that the long-time perspective is the most important and accurate way to predict who in the US is moving up socially and economically. He is saying that long-time perspective is more important than -  Family background -  Education -  Race -  Intelligence -  Connections Successful people are willing to make sacrifices, go without certain things, so that they can enjoy far greater rewards in the long term. This is not easy to do, especially living in an instant gratification society, but everyone who’s made sacrifices for a greater good can appreciate this. Denis Waitley, a motivational speaker, says, “Losers try to escape from their fears and drudgery with activities that are tension- relieving. Winners are motivated by their desires toward activities that are goal-achieving.” FOCUS on activities with large potential and positive consequences, make them top priority and work on them until done No matter what we do, time is going to pass anyway. It is up to us to decide how to use it and how we use it will determine where we end up at the end of the weeks, months and years that pass. The law of Forced Efficiency says that “There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing.” 3 Questions for Max Productivity 1.  What are my highest value activities? What are the biggest frogs I have to eat in order to get the greatest contribution to my business, personal life, health, family, 2.  What is it that can only be done by me and nobody else? The late management guru, Peter Drucker, came up with this question, DELEGATE, build a team 3.  What is the most valuable use of my time right now? This is the key question of time management, if answered correctly, we can overcome procrastination. https://balance6.biz/ #ChristophNauer #Balance6 #smallbusiness #entrepreneurs #timemanagement #businesscoaching #business #professionals #relationship #money #health #selfcare#productivity #coaching #consulting #mentoring #teambuilding #leadership --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    The Power of the 80/20 Rule and how to apply it

    Release Date: 5/19/2020

    Duration: 15 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: Last time we talked about 10/90 rule, which most people have never heard of -  first 10% of time spent on planning and organizing work before you begin can possibly save as much as 90% of time in getting work done today we’ll talk about the 80/20 rule, most of you have heard of it,  Vilfredo Pareto noticed that people in his society could be divided naturally what he called 20% vitally few and 80% trivial many He later discovered that this principle could by applied much more broadly i.e.  20% of activity, 80% of results 20% of customers 80% of sales 20% of products or services 80% of profits 20% of tasks, 80% of value of what you do Etc, etc So, let’s say you have 10 items on your to do list, 2 of them will turn out to be more valuable than the other 8 combined In other words, number of tasks is LESS important than importance of tasks It’s possible that 1 task of your list of 10 can be worth more than the other 9 together. Now that should be the task we should do first. Unfortunately, most people procrastinate on the top 10-20 % of tasks that are most important AND valuable, called the “vital few” by Pareto Instead they keep busy with the 80%, the least important or “trivial many” that contribute little results Question: how can you change this? Start by reviewing your business, where does most of it come from? What activities lead to most of our business? What business and/or services have the biggest ROI? We need to know our profit margins? Which jobs brought in the most money and where did we lose money or only had a tiny profit margin? We want to make sure not to go after more jobs like that since this would fall into the 80%. Most business owners don’t do this, maybe they feel it’s a waste of time. However, this ties in with our topic of last week’s podcast, the power of planning, 1 min of planning can save you 10 min of execution. In this case it keeps us from focusing on the more lucrative jobs, the ones that make our business profitable. Entrepreneurs appear busy all day long but seem to accomplish very little. Usually, the reason for this is that they are working on low value tasks and procrastinating on the activities that – if completed – could make a real significant difference in their business. The most valuable tasks are usually the most difficult and challenging. However, the payoff is usually tremendous. That’s why we must refuse to work on low level activities, the 80 %, and put all our efforts and energy into the 20% until they are done. So, before you begin work, ALWAYS ask: does this task belong in the top 20 or bottom 80? Whatever you choose to do over and over eventually becomes a habit, my motto: What we learn, we practice, what we practice, we become. ALWAYS start working on high value activities and refuse to spend time on the 80 until all 20 tasks are done this leads to a sense of accomplishment, success and motivation. Those feelings motivate you and help you being more productive. Time management is taking control over what you do next and the choice is ours. Making the right choice, in other words picking important over unimportant tasks, ultimately determines the key of your success and life and business. Close with quote from my mentor, Brian Tracy: Effective, productive people discipline themselves to start on the most important task that is before them. They force themselves to eat that frog, whatever it is. As a result, they accomplish vastly more than the average person and are much happier as a result. This should be your way of working as well. https://balance6.biz/ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support

    Power of Planning and How to have 2 Extra Hours a Day

    Release Date: 5/8/2020

    Duration: 17 Mins

    Authors: Christoph Nauer

    Description: reason for procrastination and lack of motivation: - vagueness, confusion, and fuzzy-mindedness about what you are trying to do and in what order and for what reason. We must avoid being vague, confused or fuzzy minded which happens when we don’t have a plan I’m sure you’re familiar with the question: How do you eat an elephant? Well, one bite at a time, so you apply this to your big, challenging, overwhelming tasks: you break it down into specific step-by-step activities and then you start on the first one. Our mind and ability to think, organize, structure and plan are our most powerful tools to overcome procrastination, which is what we usually do when we have a huge, challenging task to get done. The thought of doing it is so overwhelming that we procrastinate. So, our ability to set goals (which we discussed in our last episode), plan and take action hugely influences the course of our lives. The ability to plan before we act is really a measure of our overall competence. The better and detailed the plan the easier it is to overcome procrastination. Every minute of planning saves 10 in execution, let me repeat this So, in other words, spend 10 minutes planning and you save almost 2 hours in execution. WOW!! Knowing all this, why is it then that so few people practice it? Planning is not really difficult, the old fashioned way, you only need pen and paper, more modern way, a word doc on your computer How many times have you heard me say: Who do you know who’d like to have an extra hour or 2 a day? Well, now you know how! 2 extra hours a day is what you get when you practice this and are working from a list: ALWAYS work from a list, when something new comes up, add it before doing it. Doing this will increase your productivity by 25% or more (about 2 hours a day) from the moment you start consistently working from a list As you complete tasks tick off the items on your list, imagine what it feels like each time you do that -  Feeling of success -  Visual picture of accomplishment -  Motivates and energizes -  Raises self-esteem and self-respect -  Feel more effective & powerful -  In control of your life -  Think better -  And the list goes on Planning Project -  Make list of every step needed -  Organize steps by priority -  Lay out project on paper or computer doc so you see every step -  Work, 1 step at a time - Most important rule of personal effectiveness is 10/90 rule: -  first 10% of time spent on planning and organizing work before you begin -  possibly save as much as 90% of time in getting work done Closing Quote by my mentor Brian Tracy When you plan each day in advance, you will find it much easier to get going and to keep going. The work will go faster and smoother than ever before. You will feel more powerful and competent. You will get more done faster than you thought possible. Eventually, you will become unstoppable. #ChristophNauer #Balance6 #smallbusiness #entrepreneurs #timemanagement #businesscoaching #business #professionals #relationship #money #health #selfcare#productivity #coaching #consulting #mentoring #teambuilding #leadership --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christoph-nauer/support
