One of the hardest things to do in today\u2019s business environment is balancing the things in your business that you love to do with the things you need to do. Outsourcing the things<\/a> we do not like to do or do not do well is the ideal solution; however, whether we are a solopreneur wearing all the hats, have a part time VA or a we have a whole team helping out, it can still be a juggling act. Sometimes we can be the bottleneck to things not getting done or delegated and that is because it is so easy to confuse activity with productivity. One of the questions I get asked most often is, how can we do it all and do it well?<\/p>\n To make this\u00a0work well, there is one question you need to ask yourself – When are you the most creative<\/a>?<\/em> Is it in the morning, late afternoon or early evening?\u00a0The answer to this question tells you how you need to structure your day.<\/p>\n How To Use\u00a0Your Creative Time<\/span><\/p>\n The time of day that you are the most creative is when you need to be working on income producing activities in your business.<\/p>\n When you are tired or not feeling very creative it can be difficult and consume way more time than necessary to work on the above type of projects. This also means it will take more time and energy which you could be\u00a0spending with family or friends. Here is an infographic that discusses the best times to be creative<\/a>.<\/p>\n Use Your Off-Peak Time for Admin Tasks<\/span><\/p>\n Two of my favorite online tools to keep me organized, no matter what time of day it is, are Basecamp<\/a> and Google Drive<\/a>.<\/p>\n Using both of these tools allows me to schedule tasks during my creative or admin times like using waiting times, like being at the airport, to do some of my admin tasks and coffee time in the morning to work on my more creative tasks.<\/p>\n One final piece of advice –>\u00a0Make sure to stay in the zone! You have heard the saying “Don\u2019t mix business with pleasure”,\u00a0<\/em>well, don\u2019t\u00a0mix your creative & admin time either. Balance your schedule and increase productivity!<\/p>\nDividing Your Day for Peak Productivity<\/h2>\n
