I’m always fascinated by how much I can get done in the last few days before a trip. I work faster, and I can run triage on what is essential while delegating the things that usually occupy most of my time. During this hyper phase, I get more done because I have a deadline, and I value not worrying about my obligations on holiday. It’s all about completing a highly productive work week. Imagine treating weekends the same way we treat a vacation—we could achieve this high workweek productivity every week! Unfortunately, many influential leaders tend to work through the weekend or, at the very least, spend it worrying about the week ahead. This can quickly lead to burnout. To be more productive, we need to plan, not fear.
The key to having a highly productive workweek is to structure your time so you can accomplish all your work before the weekend hits. You can hit this goal through strategic planning and strict boundaries. Here are some tips to boost productivity and set yourself up for a productive work week.
I highly recommend hiring a professional business coach like me to help you stay organized and on task for a productive work week. If you think having a business coach would help keep you accountable, fill out my contact form, and let’s talk about how I can best help you.
