Action Item
We have talked in the past about setting priorities and focusing on what is most important. This week we dive deeper into this idea by focusing specifically on email which can be overwhelming for all of us. Are you in control of your email or is it in control of you?
ACTION:
In the past we’ve asked you to prioritize your to-do list and create it the night before. There’s no point in that if you get derailed first thing in the morning by other people’s priorities in the form of an email. For the next 7 days try opening your email only 3 times a day. And more importantly, don’t open your email before 10am. Instead, focus on that number one priority which is on the top of your nightly to-do list!
Webinar Available
As mentioned in the podcast, the webinar “Targeting and Finding New Genealogy Clients” is now available for download. More information about that is available here.
