• Begin by asking yourself the right questions like:
     
  • What do you want to achieve this hour, this day, this month, this year, in the next five years and in this lifetime?
     
  • Why are you doing what you are doing right now?
     
  • Are you doing someone else's job? If yes what prevents you from letting it be done by the appropriate person?
     
  • Are you doing the work you feel most comfortable with? If not, why?
     
  • Can you do something about getting a work that you are most comfortable with? If yes, do whatever you can about it.
     
  • Are your assumptions correct?
     
  • What is the worst that can happen? How are you taking care of that?

 

Review all your assumptions one by one, and check how your heart responds to each one of them. Pay heed to any gut feelings. 

  • Are you taking the shortest route?
     
  • Does whatever you are doing further your or company's goals?
     
  • Is your work the most valuable use of your time? If not, what keeps you from getting back to what is?”
     
  • Are you doing something that you may have to undo later? Make sure what you are doing is needed and that too in the manner or format in which, you are doing it.
     
  • Are you sure about what you are doing? If you are not sure do not act. Get to know the why, what, where, how, when and who of everything.
     
  • Are your best hours being used for your high priority areas?
