Why a Quarterly Planner?

We often get asked why we offer a quarterly planner versus an annual or even six month planner. We have many reasons; in fact, we started out with annual planners but quickly found more value in quarterly planners. Traditional business owners naturally think in quarters as they have quarterly financial evaluations, taxes, sales goals, etc. In the non-traditional business of network marketing people need to think in quarters, but often don't. By utilizing a quarter system you are forced to re-evaluate your goals, gratitude, and schedule more than once a year. In network marketing, excitement around goals is often renewed around convention time and maybe again around the beginning of the year. Gratitude we often evaluate every Thanksgiving. Gratitude and goals should be evaluated quarterly and more. We actually encourage looking at your top three goals daily, and writing down things you are grateful daily as well. Another really good reason to keep your paper planner to quarters is that it is easier to keep aesthetically pleasing.

11 Unconventional Tips for Increased Efficiency

We have thought of some things that are not your traditional tips for effective time management. Time management is all about being more efficient in every day tasks. We would like to share these to encourage and motivate you in your daily tasks.
  1. Workout: workout in the morning for an energy boost; workout in the afternoon for peak strength and less chance of injury.
  2. Get enough sleep: listen to your body; not getting enough sleep can distract you and make you less efficient.
  3. Cross things off your list: this simple act of marking things done will help you get more done. It triggers in your mind that you have accomplished something and increases your capacity to get even more done.
  4. Talk about your passion: get yourself fired up by sharing your passion for others. A short conversation can renew your vigor and help you accomplish more.
  5. Make a plan: create a road map for getting more done. Get your ideas out of your head so that you can think more clearly. We love mind mapping.
  6. Practice deep breathing: deep breathing lowers stress in the body; it sends a message to the brain and body to relax.
  7. Go for a walk: short walks stimulate your brain, digestion, muscles, and immune system. Take short walk breaks to get blood flowing.
  8. Think positively: optimists handle stress and anxiety better, have better immunity, and make the most out of bad situations.
  9. Take a break: a short brain break gives you the chance to decide what your next action should be. If a nap is an option for you, keep it short, and have a plan for getting back to work.
  10. Watch an inspirational video: there are thousands of short inspirational videos on youtube; find one that motivates you and watch it when you need some extra motivation. This is one of our favorites: http://youtu.be/lsSC2vx7zFQ
  11. Spend some time on your hobby: spending time on your hobby can help give you the renewal you need to stay motivated with your daily activities.
