Time Management ala Alex Mandossian

Not long ago, I listened in on a teleseminar, where Alex Mandossian was the special guest.

Couple of take-aways from Alex, a very prolific marketer and successful businessman:

1) set aside 50 minutes four times each week to THINK about your biz. It’ll help you make better decisions.

My thought…this is great; just remember to take ACTION right after THINKING.

2) use a countdown timer to track progress (my iPhone has one)

3) when traveling for business or pleasure, prohibit voice mails.

I use this one a lot and like it. My message is polite, but stern. I direct them to contact my office if it’s that life-threatening, which it never is for me.

More great time/life management and productivity tips coming soon. Love to hear your best strategies – comment on my blog, below.

Hatfield aquarium...I LOVE technology for these kinds of things! I like to hammer out a few blog posts all at once and deliver the content over a few days...When you're writing, it's easy to hammer out a few articles or posts at a time, vs starting and stopping. Same reason dentists that work straight six hours are more productive than a dentist that works a split 8-hour day.]
