The Ulitimate Formula is:
Know your outcome, take action, Notice what you get from your actions, and if not working, change your approach.
And then find role models who are doing what you want and do the same things and get the same results.
So what were the 2 decisons you ask that I made today:
First one to have a plan of the day set for the next day. Good deal to have a written plan for the next day to review your routine activities along with working on your goals.
A graphic you can look up that how people typically spend their work day.
Then decide what is important to be done the next day.
Ivy Lee After three months, you can send me a check for whatever you feel it's worth to you."
Said to Charles Schwab a hundred years ago.
He spent ten minutes with each executive and told them to follow the instructions below:
1. In the evening, they should write down the six most important tasks to be done next day and arrange them in order of importance.
2. Next day they should start the first task and finish it before starting anything else.
3. After finishing the first task, they should start the second most important task. They should finish it and then start the third and so on.
4. After their day's work they should spend five minutes making a list for the next day. Unfinished tasks could be put on the new list.
5. They should do this for the next ninety days and check the results.
This system encourages you to focus on your most important tasks. You will then become effective i.e. you will get your key tasks done and dusted. A merely efficient person may get lots of tasks done but they may well not be the tasks that move their life forward. Effectiveness is all about doing the most important tasks even if you leave minor tasks undone.
And the 3rd action to support that decsion?

By the way Chuck sent a check for 25 grand, about 250k in todays dollars, for such simple advice.
