BRX Pro Tip: First Things First
Stone Payton: [00:00:00] And we are back with Business RadioX Pro Tips. Lee Kantor and Stone Payton here with you. Lee, first things first.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:09] Yeah, absolutely. This is one of the easiest ways to have a productive day and feel good about what you’ve accomplished. If you can really prioritize and tenaciously do the most important thing on your to-do list first thing each and every day, then every day is going to be a good day, every day will be a productive day, and every day you’re going to move the ball.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:29] I think what people do over time is that they don’t do that most important thing. I think there was a book called Eat the Frog. They don’t do the hardest thing. They keep kind of pushing it off and they never get to it. And then, a day goes by, a week goes by. And then, soon, you haven’t done it. And then, you really have time notice that that is not moving the ball. You’re not really doing the hard work that needs to be done in order to get real results.
Lee Kantor: [00:00:55] So, I recommend, if you want to see real results over time, you’ve got to do the hard thing, you’ve got to do the most important thing first. Knock it out, get it done. You’re going to create momentum for the day. Even if you don’t get to the other stuff, it doesn’t matter because you did the hard thing, the most important thing first. So, do that. You’ll see real results over time. Slowly and steadily, you will succeed. Just don’t get distracted by less important things, unimportant things that don’t really move the needle. That’s kind of doing work that doesn’t matter. If you do the work that does matter, you will move the ball, and you will make a difference.
