To be more effective, you don't need a new tool. You need a change in your thinking horizon.
Amateurs focus on the short term. Professionals focus on the long term.
5 reasons why.
1. Improve the quality of your decisions.
We are constantly deciding. Not deciding is a decision. Having the big picture in mind makes the process easier. A good decision can change a life2. Force us to focus on the "Important but Not Urgent."
Everyday life constantly pushes us towards the urgent. It’s (sometimes)necessary and often comforting. I solve problems. I am important and indispensable. The problem is, you no longer do the groundwork. The one that ensures you are aiming in the right direction.3. Develop your proactivity.
Instead of atrophying your preparation muscle, you develop it. And like anything you work on every day, you get better at it.4. Push to create systems.
Fixing a problem, or creating an opportunity once, feels good but doesn't allow for duplication. A system does.5. Attract the right people around you.
Whether you are looking for a friend, mentor, or coach, clarifying your ideas attracts the right people around you like a magnet.
Change your focus, improve your efficiency.
