Are You An Activity Manager Or A Priority Manager?

Written by Cydnie Smith | Apr 20, 2021 11:45:00 AM

At work, there are so many times we get caught up in an activity trap. We're so busy running from here and there, we think we're actually achieving something. But, it's not enough to just check activities off a to do list.

Sometimes we have to take a step back and ask ourselves:
Are these activities adding up to real achievements?


To ensure you get the most out of your day, make sure it starts with having a plan.

It doesn't matter if you're planning your life, your month, your week, or your day. We have to know where we are going before we can get out of the starting blocks. So, don't just list all the activities you need to do.

Examine which of those activities are leading to a specific goal.
Then align your efforts with them.

It's only then that you are managing your priorities, instead of your activities.
