Lead Tomorrow at the End of Today

In past newsletters I’ve suggested planning tomorrow at the end of today as one of many good time management strategies. Another good tactic I’ve mentioned is getting goal focused at the beginning of each year, month, week and day.

A coaching client, a partner in a law firm who manages a number of associates, told me of an excellent combination of these ideas. When his team is working on a big deal he meets with them at 6 p.m. everyday to mentor today’s work and get them organized for tomorrow with briefs on the tasks they must handle.

The benefit of having this organizing meeting at 6 p.m. each day is that the members of the team can subconsciously be thinking about what they have to do tomorrow once the brief is given at the 6 p.m. meeting. The brain tends to work on problems when you are sleeping. That’s why it is a good idea to say your prayers before you go to sleep. Your brain will be thinking about how to make your prayers happen.

Try this idea for yourself and let me know of your success.

    I’m impressed, I have to say. Actually hardly ever do I encounter a weblog that’s each educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you may have hit the nail on the head. Your idea is excellent; the problem is one thing that not enough persons are speaking intelligently about. I’m very blissful that I stumbled across this in my seek for one thing regarding this.
