These are my goals. I am making my dream business happen while also juggling my personal life, too. So lets dive into these life-changing productivity hacks. My challenge for you is to pick just one habit that you are going to implement this week and do your best to start changing your mindset using the tips below. BUT FIRST. When you have a lot going on, your only choice is to be more productive. So, lets start by being positive. Lets be positive that we have a lot of stuff going on in our lives and we are an important person in our family and at our company, etc.. We have a lot of relationships and are successful in our careers. It comes with a lot and theres a lot of juggling and learning every day. Note: I also created a “time management” checklist with  my favorite  productivity resources I cant live without.I can’t live without. I think you’ll love it too. 36 Life-Changing Productivity Hacks To Streamline Your Life MINDSETS: 1.Take Control Of Your Calendar. You are in total control of your calendar. Your calendar doesnt control you. Way back a few years ago when I was in my corporate job, I had this calendar and I felt like people just put appointments on my calendar. I would look at my calendar before the week started and it would be totally booked and overwhelming. At no point did I have any time for me or read or blog or anything that I wanted to do. I needed to start taking charge of my calendar and be really disciplined about it. I needed to take control and put what I wanted to put on there. 2. Batch. This changed everything for me. This was when my business took off. When it went from a blog into a real business.when I learned how to batch. This is when you put similar activities together and do them at the same time. For example, I check my email twice per day. And thats it. I am batching all of the time I am checking email so I am not doing it throughout the day. I save time not checking my inbox all day. If you are starting a business, you want to make sure you batch together revenue producing activities like marketing or sales calls. Have a lot of time batched together to focus on that activity so you arent interrupted.  Also, make sure you only do social media at certain times of the day. I have certain times of the day when I check in on Facebook to answer questions and I am not spreading myself too thin throughout the day. If you are job searching, batch your job searching activities. For example, Linkedin. I spend one hour per week where I batch together my LinkedIn activities and respond to connection request and messages. Batch together as much time as possible to not be interrupted by other things when you are working on your resume. You can use a copy of my calendar at www.classycareergirl.com/timemanagement. 3. Boundaries Put boundaries on your time. For instance, that could mean at a certain time at night you are shutting down your computer or spending time with your family. Maybe dinner time is a do not mess with time. I find that boundaries help  me be way more productive in the times that I can work. For instance, the times when my daughter has childcare, those three hours are my golden time and I get so much done. Then, the other days we dont have a schedule and we are just trying to juggle everything, that is when we really dont get anything done. I want my Sundays to be no social media and no work. Thats the one day where I shut down as much as possible and go to church and have that family day. This is important when you are creative and producing content or launching a new career, you have to have that downtime. There is so much distractions right now so its important to set those boundaries of when you wont be on social media. I also put boundaries on my morning time. I want to create my own content before I start consuming other peoples content. Once I go on Facebook and read the news, what I had to share goes away and helping people. If I can help others before I start consuming other peoples content, that makes my  a lot happier. 4. Categories Categorize your time into different sections. I want you to think about your time in three different categories. Focus Time: The time that will get you closest to your goals. If building a business, its all about focusing on revenue producing activity. If job searching, its going to be the activity that gets you closer to the job which is networking, its not updating your resume. 80% of jobs are found through networking. If you want a new career in the next year, its important  to batch that networking time into your calendar. And if you love your career right now and want more leadership opportunities, your focus time is doing amazing things in your job that will set you apart and build you up for a promotion. You want to work hard on activities that will be seen by your boss and bring in more revenue at the company you work for. If you focus on email, you wont get as much time to focus on this stuff that will move your career forward. Administrative Time: This is stuff you have to do. We all have to check email and update our social media profiles to stay up to date with our personal brands. Paying your taxes or looking at your bookkeeping is admin time. Investigating how to start a website is admin time. Starting a website is not going to bring you income. You have to get it done. Its actually is not going to get you a client tomorrow. Think about that. You have to start talking to people and start making offers and sales. A beautiful website is not going to get you a client. You have to make a connection with people. This is also checking the mail and getting an oil change, etc. Sacred Time: What is sacred and important to you? What are your values? Is family important to you? Is education or yoga important to you? Is hanging out with your mom important to you? That is your sacred time. Put those on your calendar too. It all goes back to your mindset. Put what is important to you on your calendar first. 5. Discipline is Required Its not easy to do this and to find the time to launch your dream job or dream business. When I want to go to bed or I dont want to wake up in the morning, I just say this one word. Discipline.  Maybe you can think of that word when you want to watch TV and dont want to work. Discipline is required if you want to make your goals happen. You have to have a plan and a schedule. Its a lot of work. People say I thought this would be a lot easier or I thought this would have happened a lot faster. You cant just read articles and think about it a lot and work on your website, you have to actually be disciplined to put that time spot on your calendar to move your career forward. 6. Practice the Pareto. 20% of what you are doing right now, leads to 80% of your results. Its actually a total game changer for job searchers and entrepreneurs. For me, when I look at my numbers, I can see in the past, if I look at 2015, I can tell you exactly of 20% of what I was doing led to 80% of my results. 20% of my products led to 80% of my income. 20% of the work I do marketing my website, leads to 80% of the traffic that I get from my website. I do just a little bit on Pinterest but the traffic way outperforms anything else. I never would have known that if I didnt have google analytics on my website. Once you know what is work and what that 20% is, whether that is one product you are selling that is outperforming or one client or one advertising activity you are doing. Same with job searching. 20% of what you do will lead to 80% of results. So a little bit of networking will lead more to your dream job over online job searching. Its way more important to get out there and start talking to people. I could not be more of a proponent of networking. What are you doing right now that is leading to 80% of your results to help you build your calendar out each week. Facebook updates will not lead me to support me in my business. Eventually, you can start delegating the items that arent as important for you to be focusing on so I can focus on my good 20% that is going to lead to 80% of my results. 7. Say No More. No. No. No. This is hard. As women, its hard to say no but its really important. It goes back to putting what is important to you on your calendar. You have your values, sacred time and family time. You dont always have to say yes you can say, Let me look at my calendar and get back to you, when someone asks for your time. We are not quick to immediately say yes. Its good to think about events and see how they will work on your calendar so you dont get overwhelmed. Sometimes its a professional association you need to say no to and networking groups are not right for you anymore. The most successful people say no more than they say yes. -Warren Buffet Stress happens when your gut says no but your mouth says yes. -John heard that somewhere. ?? 8. Master Your Morning Ritual Every morning I have a routine. I have it written out and I want to do these certain things. I am more balanced and happier if I can knock out those things each morning. It starts my day right. Some of the things that you can do are meditation, being quiet and breathing deep, journaling, success and gratitude journal. I also have a moms journal documenting one thing we did together or something she did that was hilarious. I also read and put some content on the blog each morning because that just makes me happy. ?? 9. Find Your Best Time. Some people are morning people. Some people are night people. I am a morning person. I have creative juices flowing in the morning. Thats my  best time. I try my hardest to get up at 5am. If I can get up at 5am its going to be a great day. Sometimes night time is the best time for people. They key is to use your best time on you and your goals. Before I got my calendar on track, I was waking up and going into my day job I hated and using my best time to move my clients and my company forward instead of my dreams and goals forward. Make sure you use your best time moving your dream forward. 10. Hold a Weekly Review. Every single week there should be some time set aside to go back and see what you did and did not get done and knock out the administrative items. Look at the plan for the week and see what is the plan. Prepare yourself for the next week. Prioritize the top 3 things you need to get done that week and other personal things like go to the grocery store and return shoes at Target. I have been doing this weekly review every Sunday night before the week starts. That alone has changed everything for me. Having that routine so there is a certain time and day that you are reviewing things from last week and planning the week ahead in so important. We do have a to-do list and a weekly review schedule you can download at www.classycareergirl.com/timemanagement. 11. Limit Your Priorities. I only prioritize 3 things thatI am going to focus on for the next week. I dont do #2 until #1 is done. When I wake up on Monday I am not doing stuff that isnt going to move me forward to my goal. Every month I know what my top priorities are for that month. Every week I see what is going to move me forward to my monthly goals and 90-day goals. If you have too much on your plate you wont be able to get it all done. Maybe there are some things you just need to say no to. If you get off track, just focus on your first priority and let everything else go. Also, take a shower. 12. You Are Not Superwoman. You must ask for help. This is something I learned what I was a new mom and was trying to do it all. This was an eye opener for me. I was trying to keep my house clean and feed my daughter.  I didnt go back to my job after maternity leave so there was a lot of stress on me to build a business as a new mom. My mastermind group was able to guide me and help me which was eye opening. I had no idea how many hours I wanted to work or what my schedule was or when I would get help with my daughter. I thought I could do it all and run a business and do it all at once. This eye opener for me was that we cant do everything and we need to ask for help. 13. You Dont  Find Time. You Make Time. I hear so many people say that they wish they could start a business but they cant find the time. Its a simple change in your mindset of MAKING the time. This is a lightbulb. Its how you speak and what you say. When you say you are too busy, you have to change what you say. Make the time for what you value and for what is important to you. I know it sounds easier than it actually is. All of these tips are very hard. Just working towards this with your mindset is important. 14. Break it Down in 15 Minute Increments. Life is decided in 15-minute increments. Scott Harris How many of us have little 15-minute increments here and there. What could you be doing with those  increments? In 15 minutes you can get an informational interview on LinkedIn. You can reach out to a potential client. You could pick up the phone and call someone who is subscribed to your email newsletter. There are so many things you can do in 15 minutes. Its great when you can batch them together but if you are overwhelmed, figure out where you can make those 15 minutes happen to help you reach your goals. 15. Dont Be Busy. Be Productive. We are all busy. Its a matter of how efficient we can be. Changing how you think. Do you say I am really busy when someone asks how you are? Focus on being productive when you can find those 15-minute increments in your day. Its about imperfect action. Things dont happen overnight. 16. Work  ON Your Business Not In Your Business. There are times when we have to work on administrative items in our business but as much as possible, work on your activities that will move your  business forward. Work ON your career not in your career. Focus how you can move your career forward as much as possible. 17. Put Your Oxygen Mask On First. This is what they tell you when you get on an airplane Self-care is really important to take care of yourself. One of my friends in my mastermind group has three kids and when she does have her nanny, she spends one of those hours her nanny is there going for a run. Then, she can come back and be way more focused for those next couple of hours her nanny is still there. Maybe its a bath, manicure or book. For me, its my morning time. If I dont get that, I am not as great CEO, mother, wife. The only reason I am here doing this video is because I am doing my best to take care of myself and stay energized in my personal life too. 18. Aim For 7 Hours of Sleep. This is brought to you by Ariana Huffingtons book, The Sleep Revolution: Transforming Your Life One Night at a Time. Try to get between 7-8 hours of sleep every night no matter what. This is a time tip I am trying to implement in my life as well. If I am getting up at 5am, that means I need to go to bed earlier. 19. Morning Time is Magic. Do your best to see what you can get done in the morning. Just wake up 15 minutes earlier at least and it will be a total game changer for you. 20. Dont Check Email First. We all know we should not be doing this when we wake up. When I was in corporate I was doing this and it brought so much stress and overwhelm first thing. Try to ease into that email as much as possible and start your day working on what you enjoy. ORGANIZATION TOOLS: 21. Asana Asana.com is a tool I use for my personal to-do list and my entire team uses it as well. This way we have decreased email dramatically. Everything is on Asana you can comment about tasks there. Every night I go to bed with a cleared inbox because I move everything in Asana if its a to-do, task or even an email I need to respond to later on. 22. Timetrade Timetrade.com is great if you work with clients or have people who want to talk with you. I have one day a week that I open my calendar to talk to clients and there are times when clients can book times to talk with me. Then, I dont need an assistant or I dont need to figure out time zones, etc. It hurts my brain to think about time zones. 23. RescueTime Rescuetime.com tells you how you are doing with your time. You have to install it on your computer and it will tell you how much time you are spending on socail media and other certain sites and it will give you a report on how you can improve. 24: Google Calendar, Drive and Gmail I used to use Outlook but I have switched everything to Google. I keep track of notes on Google drive and things to share with John. Google calendar is shared between John and I so he knows what stuff he has going on and vice versa. 25. Dropbox Every single file that we have (which is a TON) goes on dropbox.com. it would get enormous if we were putting all of this on our computers. I have had situations when my computer breaks or I left my laptop on a plane (yikes!). It was the first time traveling with a baby and I was trying to do it all. My dad was so worried about all the files on my computer. I was NOT worried at all because all of my files were on dropbox not on my computer. We can share back and forth around my entire team. I have two virtual assistants in the Phillippines that can access everything. 26. Evernote This is great to sync across multiple devices. I have it on my laptop and on my computer.  Before I used Asana, I forwarded important emails into Evernote. It was my storage device. I now try to keep everything virtual in the cloud so I can access it on different computers and phones. 27. iPhone  Notes I use iPhone notes for hashtags on Instagram and blog ideas that come to me at any time. 28. Viral Tag If you use social media in any way, I would recommend you check our ViralTag. We love this for scheduling our social media. This is a new one that has won me over because its saving me a lot of time because I can pre-schedule posts. If you are blogging they give you six months free. You can schedule Instagram, Facebook, Twitter. Instagram you do have to manually post but it helps you put the content on so its easier to post when you are out and about. The main reason I love it is because it allows me to schedule my Pinterest images. This drives a lot of traffic to my website so I want to be putting pins up all throughout the day. 29. onlinejobs.ph I love my virtual assistants. They have helped me stay organized and productive. This is where I found them, in case you are interested in having a virtual assistant yourself. I hired a VA very early on in my business. I have two VAs now. When I first started, I hired one that helped me with things I couldnt keep up with like email and website updates. There were things I wouldnt be able to work on my business if I didnt have enough time. You have to start delegating things to other people and I am a big fan of VAs to help you do that. 30. Amazon Prime Now This is not available in all cities yet but it is available here in San Diego where I live. Its an app where I can get my groceries delivered from me from my local grocery store. I think you have to be an Amazon Prime member and you have to tip them for bringing the groceries to your house. For me, its amazing because it keeps your prior grocery list so its easy to get repeat purchases. I know I save money because I am not at the store looking at all the things I want to buy. I am limiting purchases because I know my budget and I know what I dont want to go over. I ll make sure I get under a certain number. Its actually saving me money. I do this once per week and they deliver it to me up the stairs. I get to spend more time with my daughter instead of being stressed about going to the grocery store and carrying the groceries up the stairs while watching Mila. It goes back to your values and priorities and thats my daughter, not shopping. 31. Pinterest For Meal Prep I use Pinterest to plan my meals. Especially, to look up great crock recipes. I have a meals board on Pinterest if you want to look it up and follow it. I am always pinning great time-saving eats on there. I use that to organize the food I am going to prep every week and I try to prep food every Sunday. 32. Trello We use  Trello.com  for our operations manuals and training purposes. If you are doing work where you have to train other people, check it out. I love it because you can put in video links to dropbox  and you can put worksheets in there too. Many people love Trello and if you are a  creative person, you may want to use it for your to-do list. It has boards and there are colors similar to Pinterest. If you are visual, you might love this for your to-do list. Any sort of training we do internally goes on there for our assistants to look at. 33. E.ggtimer.com E.ggtimer.com lets you time yourself and gives you a goal that will help you get more done faster. 34. Focus at Will Focusatwill.com is an app with timed music that will play for a certain amount of time. The music will stop when you hit that amount of time. If you like music  while you work, they have a lot of variety to choose from to help you boost your concentration. Make sure you go to classycareergirl.com/timemanagement for a list of the tips and time tools I use. 35. White Boards   Go digital! No paper! We have a ton of whiteboards in our office. I try to keep no paper in my office. I put my to-do list and my weekly calendar on a whiteboard too. 36.  Beautiful Calendars and Planners This year I used a Sugar Paper planner from Target and I love it. This really helped me with monthly and weekly goals. It helps me get into a schedule so every month I plan out my goals and every week I plan out my top 3 priorities. This has helped me focus in on my whole routine and schedule that I have going on. Thank you for reading! If you read this far down, you have some great tools in your toolbox to master your time management and become more productive! Now, dont leave without grabbing my free make more time workbook!

How to Fight Impostor Syndrome and Increase Productivity

How to Fight Impostor Syndrome and Increase Productivity Photo Credit â€" fastcompany.comMy employer selected me because they had a limited group to choose from…or the decision maker was drunk!’‘Should I express my opinion? I guess I am not seen as a significant team member.’‘Will I be listened to if I speak up?’‘My success is just a fluke, I don’t deserve it.’‘My accomplishments are a matter of being in the right place at the right time.’‘My incompetence will be found out very soon.’Have you ever felt the same? You are not alone.Actually, it is a common scenario at workplace. If you feel this way, you may suffer from ‘impostor syndrome’.Not everyone is familiar with this term but the majority of people have that self-deprecating thoughts especially when working on unusual or complex tasks. Even the most successful business owners and founders struggle with the feeling like a fraud.evalLet’s look at where impostor syndrome comes from, how it affects your productivity, and what you can do to fight it.What is impostor syndrome?In an article Feel Like a Fraud? The American Psychological Association described impostor syndrome as a phenomenon that occurs among high achievers who are unable to internalize or accept their success.Those with impostor syndrome tend to attribute their achievements to luck, and they live in constant fear of being unmasked as frauds.It can also be defined as a mix of feelings of incapacity and imperfection that persist even in face of fact indicating that the opposite is true.It is chronic self-doubting. It is a feeling that you are not really a successful, competent and smart person, that you are only pretending as such, according to the Caltech Counseling Center.There are three different mindsets of those who are suffering from impostor syndrome.Look through the following statements and check out if you have the symptoms of this mental pattern:‘I’m a fake.’‘I got lucky.’‘I’m not gifted; I just work really hard.’‘If I can do it, it must not be difficult; everyone can do it as well.’evalSounds familiar? Probably, you have impostor syndrome. But don’t worry, just read further and discover effective yet sometimes unexpected tips to overcome these feelings.How impostor syndrome affects productivityImpostor syndrome is not the only reason why productivity falls at workplace yet important one. To start with, feeling like you are an impostor is very stressful. Imagine that you are constantly waiting to be found out.As a consequence, you are tensed, nervous, irritated, tired, distracted and unorganized. The result is quite predictable. Your overall productivity decreases dramatically.The next thing which happens is that you may become a workaholic and perfectionist. You stay longer at the office, study madly, work harder than everyone else around you because you think you are not intelligent or capable enough.evalOn the one hand, behaving like that will probably lead you to achieving more. On the other hand, you are not able to stop. Ever. You can’t enjoy your accomplishments. All you keep doing is moving forward. Action for the sake of action. Does it make sense?Besides experiencing perfectionism, you may also feel another productivity threatâ€"procrastination.Procrastination ‘helps’ you confirm your own opinion that you are incompetent. How does this work? Procrastinating, you do something at the very last moment and if it doesn’t work out then you rationalize, “I’m not really surprised because I am a fraud and a fool.”How can you overcome impostor syndrome?Surprisingly, it is not enough to be successful to defeat impostor syndrome.The reason is that the very essence of it is a feeling that you are a fraud despite the accomplishments. Succeeding doesn’t prove that you deserve the benefits that come from your achievements.It seems that there is no way out from Impostor Syndrome prison. But don’t despair!Here are some hints suggested by the American Psychological Association:Mind that you are not alone, 70 percent of the people suffer from this syndrome.Remind yourself that nobody’s perfect.Talk to a supervisor or colleagues about their opinion of your work. One way could be to get 360-degree feedback. After that you can compare your thoughts with those of your co-workers. You may notice that you are way more negative about yourself then others think.Keep a journal of positive feedback you receive, including how you respond to it. What is your reaction when someone notices your accomplishments? Are you realistic about acknowledging your successes?Recognize your expertise. Remember what you do well. Be able to recognize fairly what you are good at and what your great qualities are.Talk to those who’ve accomplished great things, but feel like a fraud. Find similarities between them and you.Giving yourself credit for your accomplishments is the next thing to go for. Celebrating small victories, actively notice and acknowledge situations when you get through some thing that you doubted yourself on. You can even give yourself small rewards: for example, a sweet treat. For larger achievementsâ€"a night out or weekend getaway.Key takeawaysGenerally speaking, impostor syndrome is a stressful chronic self-doubting. It is a feeling that you are not really a successful, competent and smart person, that you are only pretending as such.It kills your productivity mainly by procrastination and perfectionism. Follow these suggestions in order to overcome it:Remember that nobody’s perfect, period.Ask for feedback, comparing an image of yourself with other people. You may notice that you are way more negative about yourself then others are.Keep a journal of positive feedback you receive.Always remember what you are good at.Talk to those who’ve accomplished great things and find people who feel the same way you do.Don’t forget to give yourself credit for your accomplishments. Celebrate your victories. Even small ones.evalHave you had this emotional p attern and found strategies how to fight it? Share your experience with us!P.S. Admitting is the first step to getting rid of impostor syndrome.You are already going the extra mile by overworking and self-studying. Probably, the majority of your co-workers are not doing all that.I bet you’ve proved your proficiency to yourself and others tons of times. It is not a gift of heaven, you simply know your business. And what you don’t know yet you can figure out at any time. Keep calm and feel like a hero!

Common Resume-Writing Mistakes

Common Resume-Writing MistakesAre you a new or inexperienced writer? Do you want to master resume writing? Here are some dos and don'ts for your next resume.One common mistake is the omission of qualifications and experience. When writing a resume, including the details will show in the eyes of the employer. I am not saying that experience and qualifications are not important. What I am saying is that it can be a good idea to take care of these two points. This is because employers looking for fresh blood will look at your work history and performance, and they would not focus on something that is only subjective like experience.Another common resume-writing mistake is to list all your skills and qualifications before a job application. It can be very annoying for you. So the next time, if you have to write a resume, you should always write the objectives first. Next, list down skills and qualifications.A third common resume-writing mistake is listing the skills on the first page. Th is is a good idea when starting out in the world of job hunting. You have to show that you are the best in what you do. But with time, your job application would be built from experience and qualities, and you would get better in these areas.An extremely common resume-writing mistake is not taking the proper care of grammar and punctuation. I am not talking about writing errors, but rather inappropriate words or wrong use of grammar. Do not add unnecessary terms or slang. These can disqualify you, especially when hiring in an upper management position.The last, but not the least, is to take care of the design of your resume. You do not want to look like a paper. You do not want to look like a badly designed paper. You do not want to look like a printed copy of the paper. When you apply for a job, do not go for the usual designer-type resume that looks just like the other job applications, and do not make it look like a paper that is being printed out.These are some of the most commo n resume-writing mistakes. Use them as a guide. You would look better if you follow these. Good luck!

Why No One Is Calling You After Youve Applied To Over 100 Jobs Online - Work It Daily

Why No One Is Calling You After You’ve Applied To Over 100 Jobs Online - Work It Daily No one calling you back after you’ve applied to over 100 jobs online? You’ve spent HOURS of time filling out applications and you still haven’t seen any results. Why is that? Did you know there’s only a 3% chance you’re going to get called after applying to an online job posting? Yup. Kind of takes the wind out of your sails, doesn’t it? The average job posting gets about 200 applicants, and HALF of those applicants get disqualified based on technicalities. From there, recruiters go in and use the applicant tracking system to filter out candidates. Once they have about 20 applications, they will go through them one by one. However, only 3-6 people will actually get called for phone screens out of this group. And only three people out of that group will likely get a chance to come in for in-person interviews. So, as you can see, the chances of you getting called are very low. That’s why this type of job search isn’t a good approach for most job seekers. Unfortunately, most job seekers do end up spending their time on online job boards applying to jobs because it’s seemingly the “easiest” way to find jobs. It’s also the most publicized approach to job search. What you need to do instead is conduct a proactive job search that targets your top employers. Instead of “spraying and praying,” you need to spend your time and energy on activities that drive RESULTS in your job search. So, if you’ve applied to over 100 jobs online and haven’t gotten any interviews, it’s time to change up your job search strategy.
