Happy Tuesday!

It’s a hot and humid day here in Central Ontario. It’s trying awfully hard to thunderstorm, and I’ve just come back in from getting my annual leg scan done at the vascular lab. I’m very grateful the lab is only a couple of blocks away so I didn’t have to be out in the heat for too long.

I have lots of deals and goodies to share today but first I wanted to talk a bit about your schedule – or if you’re anything like me, the lack of – because it hit home for me this weekend how non-existent my formal schedule is. Case in point, I didn’t even know I had this appointment today until Sunday when I found a letter from the lab in a pile of papers I was clearing off my desk!

Today’s Read: Is Your Schedule a Realistic One?

How’s your schedule looking?

What schedule, you ask? (That would be me, by the way.)

I’m probably the last person who should be talking to you about schedules since mine is the most haphazard thing you’ve ever seen.

But I know that a realistic schedule can help to improve your productivity and organization, and help you achieve your goals both personally and professionally. So, I went searching to help me find a few tips for creating a realistic schedule that doesn’t leave me feeling overwhelmed and stressed by trying to get more done in a day than is humanly possible.

Here’s what I found…

Tip #1 – Define Your Goals and The Resources

For every goal and main objective, there are little tasks or to-do lists needed to get there. Highlight each one and then list the resources required to complete the work. For example, do you need to purchase specific equipment, or can it all be done from home?

Tip #2 – Always Include Breaks and Vacations

Schedule your breaks, or you won’t take them and cause yourself to burnout. Burnout, fatigue, and lack of motivation won’t allow you to work efficiently no matter how much time you schedule yourself to work. It’s a myth that breaks are only for lazy people. The most highly productive people take breaks, and they take long ones too.

Tip #3 – Schedule Extra Time

Add around ten to fifteen more minutes to any scheduled task for things you can’t predict. Over time, little tasks you weren’t aware you were even doing, but are required to survive – like go to the bathroom – will add up and steal you away from doing the important tasks. To keep you on track and still complete what is required, expect to use a little more time than you believe you need, just like showing up to work fifteen minutes early, for example.

Tip #4 – Be Aware of Shortfalls and Potential Snags

Each task you need to get done will likely have different variables or expectations, such as driving time to various onsite meetings or working with clients with different time zones. These examples can cause different kinds of delays that you are not used to or even aware of.

Tip #5 – Commit to Distraction-Free Work

When you schedule tasks, you need to commit to the work time. If you don’t, you will only end up allowing yourself to work over your breaks or other essential duties. If you commit to distraction-free work, you can ensure you get your job done on time every time.

Tip #6 – Expect Change and Variability

Planning is only there to support you and guide you. It is not foolproof. Don’t expect it to be.

Tip #7 – Reevaluate for Accuracy

To improve any systems, you must schedule a time to review where things go wrong and where they went right to do even better next time.

Tip #8 – Don’t Forget About the Little Things

Little tasks build-up, even five minutes or two minutes here and there, which could affect your schedule.

The best productivity tools in the world can’t account for everything that goes on in your life. Hopefully these tips and tricks will help you set up a schedule that realistically reflects your life and allows you to meet your goals.
