You’re living in an age where far more is about how your mind
and brain work than ever before. Emotional Intelligence (EQ) studies show that
how you think, feel and act are intimately linked.
Daniel
Goleman,
author of the 1995 book “Emotional
Intelligence, Why It Can Matter More Than IQ” defines Emotional Intelligence
(EQ) as:
“The capacity for recognising our own feelings and those of others, for
motivating ourselves, and for managing emotions well in ourselves and in our
relationships.”
Use these 10 Tips
and take control of your time and your life.
1. Solve work problems while
you’re asleep.
Ask your mind a question at the end of the day and expect a meaningful
answer when you wake up. Many people
report that they’ve achieved dramatic results by putting their subconscious
mind to work.
2.
Stop multi-tasking.
Trying to do too many things at once and switching frequently between many tasks
has been shown by many studies to reduce productivity by between 29% to 53%.
3.
Sip iced water throughout your working day.
If you drink as little as 4% – 5% below your optimal water requirements, your
concentration and performance can be reduced by as much as 30%.
4.
Produce a prioritised to-do list.
Write it out, keep it on your PDA or store it on your computer. It’s far easier
to achieve plans that you’ve made visible than those that just stay in your
head.
5.
Refer to your to do list frequently.
Tick off the completed items as you finish them. This gets you actively involved
in your tasks. It also strengthens your emotional commitment to their timely
execution. It’s a very practical way to keep yourself motivated.
6.
Write down your lifetime goals.
When you make your goals explicit, you’re far more likely to achieve them. Your
subconscious mind will get to work on achieving your goals without you really
even knowing.
7.
Review your lifetime goals at least every quarter.
Stay on track and make sure that they’re
in harmony with your values. Your goals may also change as you grow older and
wiser.
8.
Do high priority work when you’re at your peak.
Structure your working day so that you do key tasks at the times of the day when
your mind is most clear and your energy level is at its highest.
You’ll save hours and gain even more time
when you make this a regular habit.
9.
Make fun of your fears about work.
Be playful. Ask yourself “what is the worst thing that could possibly happen?”
Let your imagination run wild, don’t hold back, be as ridiculous as possible. Do
you see how absurd your fears are? Now get on and do the thing that you made you
feel fearful in the first place.
10.
Learn from your failures.
Don’t waste time and energy blaming yourself if you don’t implement your new
tips perfectly the first time. Keep on practicing. Focus on the tips that work
for you and work out how to make them regular habits.
