Loved this series. I like short and sweet tips. Thanks Raul.
very useful ones Raul.
what do you have to say no to in order to say yes to doing one other thing?
Find out a time management system that works for you, usually trying to do someone else’s without modifying it for you won’t work.
Unitasking is often both my biggest challenge and the road to success in productivity. Nowadays, I can’t wrap my brain around how I used to work 70 hour weeks, juggling four tasks at a time, because it seems in hindsight that I could have gotten so much more done if I’d just focused on a singular goal, accomplished it and moved on.
Great tips, Raul!
