Overwhelm and How to Conquer it with the 21/28 Day Log


Listen Later

When you are dealing with many different things it can often lead to feelings of overwhelm and sometimes not knowing where to turn or how to move forward.

In this episode Jeannette shares a simple and highly effective tool that is hugely valuable for anyone who wants to optimise their time and achieve their goals.

Everyone wants to make the most of their time and get the best from life and this is a great opportunity to find out how to stop the overwhelm and make positive changes to achieve what you want.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Everyone wants to make the most of their time and get what they want from life.
  • Use a blank sheet for each of the 21 days, 3 weeks is a reasonable duration to create an accurate picture. [If you are a woman, you may want to keep this log for 28 days so that it covers your full cycle]
  • Use columns for time, task, details, energy level and area. Throughout the day record every task and its duration. If it’s easier for you, you can also record this at the end of the day, but make sure you do it on the day as otherwise you will forget. It will only take you 10 minutes each day!
  • Identify if the task was for work, social or if you were resting.
  • When you review the tasks, you need to record how you felt while completing the activities – were you lethargic, steady, energised or on fire?
  • We all have different rhythms throughout the day with peaks and troughs in our energy levels, so it’s important to understand what your personal rhythm is.
  • Note whether the activity is a key life area, key result area or income-generating area and record what type of activity you are doing.
  • At the end of the 21/28 days review the log to identify patterns and trends  making changes to optimise your time.
  • You should be matching your most important tasks with your high energy levels.
  • Decide on the changes you need to make and take action.
