One of the biggest thefts in business is wasting time. Les Watson — aka The Time Lord — shares his productivity hacks. Les is a renowned productivity and time management expert and the author of ‘Get Back an Hour in Every Day’.
Les’s takeaways:
Effective Time Management: The importance of planning each day in advance, conducting regular reviews, and having systems in place to manage time efficiently and reduce stress.
Fear of Missing Out (FOMO): Entrepreneurs often feel the need to be constantly engaged in all aspects of their business. Les advises against this mindset, suggesting that well-planned systems and balance can alleviate this fear.
Setting Boundaries: Establishing clear work hours and boundaries is crucial for maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Use strategies like email autoresponders to manage expectations and reduce interruptions.
Utilizing Productivity Tools: Tools like Asana, Google Calendar, and simple note-taking apps can help in organizing tasks and maintaining focus. The key is to find a system that works best for the individual.
Value of Mentorship: Having a mentor or business coach can provide invaluable guidance, help avoid common mistakes, and offer support. Les highlights the benefits of having someone to bounce ideas off and keep you accountable.
Networking and Online Presence: Effective marketing includes both face-to-face networking and maintaining a strong online presence through podcasts and social media. This dual approach helps in reaching a wider audience and establishing credibility.
