You know how you are so used to someone that you see them without really seeing them? Well, the other day it was like I “saw” my husband for the first time and wow — he has lost 15 pounds and he is looking fab-lee-ous!
One thing I admire so much about him, once he makes up his mind to do something, he sticks with it. So he made up his mind to workout for 30 mins a day every other day and he has been faithful to this for at least two months.
And see what happened? Sheesh. He makes it looks so easy.
I’m a little jealous (in a good way), so now I have started my own 30 mins a day routine. I feel better already but don’t hold your breath on the 15 pounds thing.
So this got me thinking about what other big changes a person could actually accomplish in just 30 minutes a day, for example, what if you devoted 30 mins a day to beefing up referrals? Or writing your book? Or blogging? Or creating a new product? Or writing thank-you notes? Or learning css?
We could all handle 30 mins a day, couldn’t we?
Jerry Seinfeld uses a variation of this with a big wall calendar and a red magic marker, read about his productivity secret here.
There are a gazillion tools to help keep track of our 30 min blocks, for example you could certainly use something like GTDAgenda, or Vitalist, or a paper system from Myndology.
But ultimately, what will make the most difference? Doing it. It’s only 30 mins!
Who’s in?
