    In today's world where the digital Business Revolution it allows us to profit from basically anywhere productivity It's no

    longer just about managing time But in doing so even more to coordinate orchestrate our

    energy and our resources more effectively And we want to do that as effectively as

    we possibly can as efficiently as we can There are plenty of tools and platforms for you to

    use So what you really need to learn is not how to just add more noise add more

    content but learn the art of taking advantage of certain opportunities how to be more efficient how

    to deliver my content better how to build my audience provide more value It is

    no longer necessarily about tackling through the workloads and producing mass quantities But how you're aligning your work

    with your most important business objectives in the creator economy In this episode we will go through a tailored

    plan to drive higher productivity levels and channel and focus your most productive work into

    your most productive processes Before we get into that I encourage you to sign up for the part time

    digital business newsletter This is free to you It is a weekly training guide week to week I

    publish 1 to 2 relevant curated training guides that will help you If you're looking to grow your

    digital business you're looking to build a better content system There's a lot of productivity tips and training

    in there You can find links in the description for that Now let's start with building

    a personal productivity blueprint No other place does the Ancient Greek aphorism of know thyself apply then in

    the realm of personal productivity the first step is assessing your current health and productivity When do you work best

    What distracts you what depletes you versus what energizes you So are you better in the mornings Are

    you better in the afternoons Are you better in the evenings It's important to figure

    this out and it's important to understand this this will lead to increased activity which is number two this

    is where you want to keep a journal You can do this on your phone

    you can do this on paper do this for one week to start and see what patterns and insights

    you can uncover start with establishing some clear goals for you what you're seeking to accomplish

    and then create action steps from those goals A sequence of specific actions that bring those goals to life Let's

    say you want to start writing newsletters and create a newsletter so that there's your goal create a

    newsletter one time a week We'll use mine for instance Saturday at every Saturday at 9 a.m.

    Now you need to create a sequence of steps for that So what are the

    steps for that They're very simple I need to write the article I need to put it into

    a newsletter format and I need to email that article out Those would be my

    first steps Then what will happen is you'll find different steps within those steps of

    calls to action of how you're putting things together I go through this process in the content production system

    step by step course you can find links in the description for that if you are looking

    to go to that next level quickly but you want to use the flexibility of remote

    working to work with your natural energy cycles OK Very important You can comment down

    below Let me know what you do Let me know how you work through your processes Is

    it a lot of steps Is it a little bit of steps always interested to see what other people are

    doing and how you are being the most efficient Now you want to tackle high concentration

    tasks during those peak hours of focus and those peak times lower energy tasks when you're

    likely to be less alert make sure you're taking breaks in between to refresh 10 minute breaks 20 minute breaks

    you and visualize what you are producing OK visualize what's being put out there You can use notion you can

    use Trello I personally use Apple Notes and Google Notes Google Keep I use both

    of these Google keep I use for business Apple Notes I use for more personal stuff but this

    is how I track everything and how I move through all of my list and my processes every day You

    wanna make sure you're tracking this and you wanna make sure you're hitting your targets OK The best way to

    hit your targets is to write things down on paper Look at what you've accomplished in in reflection and that

    can motivate you to continue on Remember too if you're getting value here make sure

    to follow make sure to subscribe It really helps us push up the content Also hit the bell because

    you will be notified before everyone else When new content is published on this channel let's talk about uh

    surviving OK More than surviving your systematic efficiency processes After you learn your flow and your rhythm of personal

    productivity you want to uh fortify those daily work systems and you want to continue to increase your efficiency

    systems Eliminate the need to make many decisions all the time They're saving you mental fatigue they're maintaining

    creativity where needed How do you do this You develop a routine that includes things like batching tasks automating repetitive

    tasks with different tools You can use tools like Zer There's if tt there's a I there's

    chad GP T clad gemini And depending on when you watch this video there will be probably 100 more

    that you can utilize The trick is find what works within a few tools and really master those tools and

    utilize those tools I use A I to come up with article scripts I use it to come

    up with topics and then I go in and I make it my own and I

    adapt it and I adapt around it and I use different tools like Zer to automate email

    processes and I could go on and on But the point is you want to

    find what works for you and get good at those processes to save yourself hours and hours

    every week So a good motto I like to go by if it takes less than two minutes

    just do it Now Don't put it off don't write it down and say you'll

    do it tomorrow It's really how to prevent all those little tasks Piling up my thing that I like

    to do personally is as I'm working through processes which is a constant thing I will write small notes in

    my phone for the next day As soon as I get up as soon as

    I get to my desk I'm doing 10 small things They can be updating banners on the

    mobile version of a course going into an article and fixing this fixing this fixing these links

    I get all those things out of my mind The first thing then I can focus on

    things like this recording videos writing article scripts publishing newsletters all of the more heavy

    processes You can also use templates This is another blessing As soon as you can develop them for your common

    workflows use them to save hours of time It's just as vital to protect your productivity

    systems by setting boundaries Get good at saying no really guard your time only if it's the right time

    to do something to take something new on is when you should do that only if it will be

    beneficial and not take away from everything else in the long term Now the creator

    economy there are many digital tools that you can utilize We're not going to get

    into them all but we're going to talk about the framework OK How can you increase

    your productivity Your job is to isolate the tools that work best for your flow not get overwhelmed

    with all of the tools you can as we know you anytime you go on any social

    media and you've looked at one thing you're going to get bombarded with ads and a lot of

    good ads that are very tempting to buy don't get sucked into that work through the process first before

    you get into the tool Just some good advice manage the projects your workflows There's many different things

    you can use like KBA you can use Adobe to design and then take your design processes plug

    them into your social media programs programs that I use New link Hype Fury You can find

    links for this in the description You can find links for this on my site I teach

    on some of these products as well Why Because I've used them for years They

    fit into my system and they save me exponential time I would not use something

    personally if it added more time even if it increased quality slightly if it added

    too much more time I would keep the quality where it is and continue forward Because me spending two more

    hours to put out 5% better quality is not going to make a huge bit of

    difference to my audience to my target audience If it would add 20 or 30% quality then that's that's

    another way to look at things So just to give you some ideas and metrics that

    I use and don't forget it's not about sort of filling your toolbox as much as you can with

    as many tools as possible It's more about the process you're using to design the process you're using to create

    So go back to your tool stack make sure that everything you're using is serving a purpose

    And there's often times when I will go clean and figure out OK I don't need this tool I

    don't need this tool I don't need this tool Now a time management right A

    small hack for time management is in terms of thinking about productivity You wanna set a daily schedule obviously for

    yourself This includes blocking out time different types of work There's many different techniques you

    could do and all kinds of fancy names But it really comes down to setting a schedule

    that works for You start in the morning spend your 1st 30 minutes doing the

    hardest things the next 30 minutes the next hardest things and so on And you can

    do hour blocks or two hour blocks depending on the tasks at hand The important thing though

    is to have a schedule set and be tracking something on some level using your

    calendar to plan tasks around when you have the most energy this will definitely fluctuate throughout the

    day and you probably won't get it right right away But you'll get good at filling

    gaps and you'll get good at understanding what needs to go in those gaps So you can have

    the best chance of success Long term It's easy in the beginning because you're excited everything's moving

    quickly But when the further you get the longer you get into it you'll hit a certain area and you

    can find and I'll pin this in the comments for you to get into the reality check video

    in the different phases When you hit these certain phases is when things can maybe start to get

    stale So you wanna make sure you have your systems and your processes in place when you

    hit these moments you don't run into any of those problems now to sort of wrap this up Keep in

    mind that productivity it's not a place where you get to necessarily it will always be

    changing There will always be different strategies different mindsets different processes you can work through what's working for you right

    now may not be the best process in a month or tomorrow or in a

    year You just have to be open to those changes And that continual refinement of the processes keep yourself in

    check new routines new habits that you set in place Always be willing to adapt and experiment

    and adjust certain things Remember the pain it takes to change that thing Think about the time you're

    going to save in the long term it's almost always worth making the change if the time

    is there that is going to be saved If you want to get a little bit deeper into this

    I have links down below different programs that we are that I'm currently offering content digital products The most

    important things I believe anyone who wants to have true success Long term wants to look into wants to get

    into and you want to set up for yourself So check the description for those links and I'll

    see you in the next one
