The first twenty minutes.

You would never see an NBA all-star casually toss a ball into the air and hope it hits the net. Before each jump shot, players pause, find their footing, set their sights on the net, and visualize a swoosh before the ball has even left their fingertips. You can take the same approach at work by visualizing a successful day before it officially begins. It all comes down to the first twenty minutes.

 As soon as you get to work, before you turn on your e-mail or check your voice mail, take twenty minutes to plan the day ahead:

*Define your top priority for the day—the one that you would sacrifice all others to achieve—to help focus your energy.

*Update your “To Do” list. Allot time for everything you need to accomplish, including time to prepare for meetings and other conversations.

* Review your calendar. Determine the purpose of each meeting and appointment. If you don’t have one yet, think of one. If you can’t determine one, cancel.

* Consider whom you will see in meetings or other events throughout the day. Jot down any issues you need to address with them.

Now the question is…..CAN YOU DO IT? My challenge to you is TRY this, give me some feed back. I would love to know if you as well as others can do it!
