I am inviting you to join me for an intimate, all-inclusive retreat in a cozy cabin tucked away in the mountains, right outside Zion national park where we just focus on YOU. Focus on what feels good for you, what is in alignment for you, and redefine your path.

Today’s episode is all about the productivity hack that CHANGED EVERYTHING!

Elizabeth’s #1 tip she gives to her Workshop in a Box students is to make sure they have business days. You need to make sure that you have that time working on your marketing, inventory, social media, etc.

She recommends spending 75-80% of your time IN your business, and 20-25% of your time ON your business.

These percentages can change depending on your season of life, and have systems and policies in place, it is then your job to make sure everything is running smoothly.

This hack is meant for your office hour days! It is also integrated into our new Plan to Win PLANNER!!

In the planner, you’ll see that we created CUSTOM STICKY NOTES just for you! These notes fit into the columns of your week days in your planner system.

Elizabeth uses the Ivy League Method. This is how it goes.

At the end of the day, you brain dump everything. You get everything out of your head and heart and whatever else is stressing you so that you can focus on your family that night.

After, you create NO MORE than 6 ‘to-dos’ for the next day, and prioritize them based on what is most important!

HERE’S THE CATCH!

You do NOT move onto the next task until the one above it has been completed!

THAT’S IT!

It sound simple, but it can be very hard. Sometimes you really don’t want to do one of your tasks. You could be avoiding it.

One thing that helps Elizabeth with these not so fun tasks is after she brain dumps she goes through and makes another list. “delegate, delete or do”

She goes through and see if she can ask anyone for help, or things she could get rid of, or things she just needs to buck up and get done!

After you have done all of this, what is left on your list is your “do’s”

This is where you PRIORITIZE!

These are the most pressing items that need to be done (remember no more than 6!). They need to be those things that are moving the needle in your business and life.

Everything left over are your ‘filler’ to-dos.

The ‘filler to-dos’ are things that are important, but not necessarily time sensitive. These are great things to do when you have gaps in your schedule, or have time to do when you’re out running errands. They are also great if you need to take a break from your work.

With this method, you are going to save SO much time.

Once you get in your flow, you can look at your month in advance, plug in your big dates and to-dos, and ultimately get more efficient!

One of the best parts about this planner and method, is that you are able to leave everything at WORK! You don’t have to worry about if you remembered to do something, because it is all there and written down for you to come back to the next day.

It’s great for when you start the day because you already have your to-do list ready to go, and you can jump right into your day!

Elizabeth’s last tip is STRESS ABOUT IT LATER.

When you plan ahead, you get to stress about it later!

You put it on your calendar and then you don’t have to worry about it until you get to that day.

This life hack has changed Elizabeth’s life. We want to know what you think and if it works for you!
