Big Tip # 3 – Set Priorities


 
Imagine you have 5 rocks the size of your fist and a cup of sand. The rocks are the things that you really need to get done in any particular day and the sand represents all the numerous other little things that need to be done but aren’t all that important. Now imagine that you are trying to put the rocks into a container that is barely large enough to hold them. The container represents your day, and like your day, it is only just large enough to fit in all the things that you need to fit in i.e. the rocks (handful of important things you need do) and the sand (the numerous not so important things). While you might like to do this experiment yourself to fully understand the point I am trying to make, imagine that we put the rocks into the container first and then poor in the sand. In this scenario, i.e. doing the handful of important tasks first you will find that you can fit both the important tasks (the rocks) and the not so important tasks (the sand) into the container (your day). Once the rocks are in place the sand will fill the spaces left in between. Reverse the order however and the rocks don’t fit! That’s right. Take your cup of sand and poor it into the container first and then try and put the rocks in on top and you’ll find that only a couple of the rocks will actually fit. The same holds true for your day. If you focus on doing the numerous small less important items first then you’ll run out of time to do the fewer but ultimately far more important tasks. If on the other hand you deal with the small number of truly important items first, then the numerous smaller, less important activities will fit within the time left. To achieve this you need to get better at identifying the “rocks” for the day i.e. the few truly important things that you would like to achieve. You then need to make a concerted effort to work on these first and avoid being distracted in the process. So if that means letting the telephone go to answering machine, or not opening the morning mail then do it. This is an important step in taking back control of your life.

Here's What Our Customers Say About Us...

"My Husband and I are not as young as we used to be and while our garden gives us great pleasure, we found it very difficult to maintain. Well that was until we where blessed with United Home Services Gardening . They have taken control of our garden and know exactly what we want without any fuss or bother. We have always found them to be extremely friendly and courteous and to be honest. Our garden has never looked so good. We have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone."
- Yvonne, Bentleigh

""Moving to Melbourne without a lawnmower was not a problem once we had discovered United Home Services Gardening. It has been a pleasure to come home and see an immaculate lawn and garden and it gives us time to relax and enjoy it without all the work! One of the best things about United Home Services, they ar approachable, friendly and flexible and certainly makes an effort to meet our requests and cope with the dogs (and the holes they dig!)""
