- 28. The Truth Can you aim to do everything you ever wanted to do? You will miss out on things, no matter what. You cannot try everything in the world.

Editor's Notes
- You need Cambridge Certificates for International travel either Emigrating for business or as a student.`
- What does this statement suggest?To Tutor: Expect answers and then complete with the following. [ENGAGE][FLIPCHART]What are the benefits of having few goals?To Tutor: Expect answers and record these on a flip chart. Next, show the content of the slide and expand as necessary. Goal management costs time. If you set yourself many goals, you end up with less time to attend to each. Multiple goals can also be distracting. Few goals mean simplicity which in turn makes it much easier to think about them every day. It is easier to immerse yourself in your quest to achieve a single goal than to divide your attention between various potentially conflicting goals. What should you do instead?Instead, select up to three main primary goals for the whole year and focus your entire effort on these only. If you want to be adventurous, you may even set yourself one goal and then do everything you can to achieve this single goal.
- What does this statement suggest?To Tutor: Expect answers and then complete with the following. Put all your energy on a single core objective and enjoy achieving it. You are bound to be more successful on it than chasing a variety of objectives. Go for simplicity. Choose a single objective and immerse yourself in the task of pursuing it. You need focus, dedication and a lot of practice. Image: David by Michelangelo
- What does this statement suggest?To Tutor: Expect answers and then show the content of the slide and complete with the following. Written objectives are bound to stay in your mind much longer than those you simply wish for. Have a journal and write your objectives on it. Write down your 6-months and 1-year objectives in large fonts on A4 papers and stick them on a wall where you can see them every day. The more you see your objectives, the more likely that you will succeed at them.
- To Tutor: Show each statement one at a time in the slide and ask delegates to explain what it suggests. Use the descriptions below to expand on them. Don’t Treat All Skills the Same Don’t focus on all skills uniformly. You are bound to be better at some things than others. You would be much better off to work on these unique strengths and push them forward than to spend endless hours to improve areas that you are weak at and make yourself mediocre after a lot of effort. The only exception to this rule is that if the skill is critical to have. Whether you are natural at learning it or not should not affect your main objective of progressing forward to an acceptable standard. Simplify Minimise clutter by simplifying your environment. Do you really need to have all those stuff on your desk? Some of them might have been there for months or years? Do you think it will help you to look at them every day? If there is something you should be looking at every day, is it best represented by what you have on your desk or in your room?The same goes with everything else in your life, whether in the digital or physical world. Targeted focus helps you to channel all your energy on one thing at a time. Start it, do it, finish it and move on. Interest and Energy are Periodic You get periodically energetic on a subject. Move in with that as you get more excited, but stop and give yourself rest. Ideally, you should move to something totally different like learning a new skill and immerse yourself in this new task. When you come back, you almost feel you miss the original work and would be much more energetic and enthusiastic to work on it. Place Yourself First You are the centre of your world. There is no denying that. Hence, “you” must have the highest priority in your world. Many people miss the real point here and end up bending backwards for others without consideration for themselves and their objectives. Even if you think helping others is a great virtue, there still has to be a well taken care of “you” who can go on to help others. “You” come first every time. [STORY]A classic example of this is responding to interruptions. For example, you have planned your day and are immersed in an activity. Your colleague interrupts you, asking for your help on something. This interruption is going to be disruptive to your work and plans. You need to leave your current work, switch your mind to something else and after a while need to come back and start all over again. Stopping and starting costs time. Many people want to be helpful, so they seem eager to quickly accept an interruption and provide their help to others. However, this can be counter-productive, not just for you, but also for your organisation. You may feel that you are helping by responding to any interruption, but by being less productive your action may actually reduce the organisation's performance as a whole, despite helping others when they asked for it. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t help others. It means you need to have a priority system where you and your plans come first. Hence, it is wrong to assume that so long as you are ready to help others, you are doing a good job or you have been useful to the organisation. Always place yourself first. [BLANK SCREEN] [PRACTICE][E276_Exercise_FillTheJar][PAIR][IF ODD: INDIVIDUAL]To Tutor: Use this memorable exercise to get the delegates understand the importance of dealing with big issues first before moving on to process smaller tasks. [PRACTICE][LOOK AT WORKBOOK: What I Want in Life][INDIVIDUAL]To Tutor: Ask delegates to go through this simple, yet effective exercise in identifying what they want in life. This is divided into three main categories; Having, Being and Doing. Ask them to consider SMART objectives while formulating them so the list becomes much more effective and useful. Explain that they don’t have to share their objectives with each other so should feel more comfortable to write them in their workbooks. Allocate 10 minutes for this. Bring back everyone and ask them how easy it was to formulate these objectives and how they feel now having gone through this exercise. Expect delegates to feel more positive about life and the future. Encourage them to spend more time on this exercise after the course as the topic deserves a lot more than 10 minutes. [SHOW SCREEN] ---Achievement By the end of this session you will be able to: Re-evaluate and simplify your goals to increase your productivity Have we achieved this? Relay Application Confirmed Considering the guidelines you went through in this session, do you feel more comfortable to revise your goals in a way to make you more productive?
- To Tutor: Ask the question in this slide from the delegates. Expect them to say no. Next, show the truth and emphasise it.
- To Tutor: Ask the question in this slide from the delegates. Expect them to say no. Next, show the truth and emphasise it.
- To Tutor: Ask the question in this slide from the delegates. Expect them to say no. Next, show the truth and emphasise it. You cannot read every book that is interesting, visit every city that you like and watch every interesting film out there. There just isn’t enough time and there is more content created every day. So you need to learn to be selective. [STORY]A nice example of seeing how much content is created every day is to look at YouTube statistics. Here are the amazing details for 2010:35 hours of video footage is uploaded to the site every minute.Over 13 million hours of footage was uploaded in 2010Each week, YouTube receives the equivalent of 115,000 full-length feature films in uploads
- To Tutor: Ask the question in this slide from the delegates. Expect them to say no. Next, show the truth and emphasise it. [DISCUSSION]To Tutor: Encourage a discussion around these topics and see what delegates think of each truth. It is important to relate these to their world using appropriate examples so delegates can better understand if they have a fundamentally wrong view of managing tasks. A as trainer, it is important to spot this early on so you can guide them accordingly through this session.
- What is productivity all about? Is it about doing everything you can in a day? Is it about maximising throughput? Is it about doing more, or doing less? Many think that being good at time management means being as busy as possible. It is as if you are a robot and you try to get the most from yourself. Although this may lead to getting a lot done, it is not really productive. To Tutor: Show the grand productivity rule in the slide and emphasise it. Productivity is the art of doing less but getting more. Going around pretending to be busy doesn’t help you to accomplish more. It may make you appear busy to others, but that’s as far as it goes. It is about doing the bare minimum so long as you can get to your goals. It not about doing a lot to get a lot; it is about doing a little but getting a lot. It is about maximising your free time, not about filling it up. The distinction is huge and one that many don’t yet fully grasp.
- To Tutor: The following two laws are absolutely critical in boosting productivity. Delegates might be already aware of this from attending a previous course or other sources. Awareness of the laws is one thing, using them is another. Your aim in this part is to get them think about these laws and see if they have forgotten to apply them to their life. What is Parkinson Law?To Tutor: Expect answers. Delegates should be aware of this law. Your purpose here is to get them think about it again and see how and if they can apply it to their daily activities. How can you use Parkinson Law to artificially boost your productivity? Can you give examples?Artificially limit the amount of time you allocate for everything you do and you will immediately become more productive. To Tutor: Conclude that examples can fall in to two types. Explain using the following:Macro Techniques: Example: Work 4 days a week and leave at 4 pm so you are forced to do all the work in this time and save yourself one day. If you truly push yourself, you will be amazed how quickly you can achieve this. Micro Techniques:Example: Use impossibly short deadlines and eliminate tasks that are unimportant. If the task was going to take 5 hours, give yourself 4. If the deadline is in a month, aim to finish in three weeks. [TRY][RELAY]To Tutor: Ask delegates to apply the Parkinson Law to three tasks of their choice and share this with others one at a time. This helps delegates to better understand the Parkinson Law through examples.
- What is 80/20 Law?To Tutor: Expect answers. Delegates should also be aware of this law. As before your purpose is to get them think about this law and see how they can apply it to their world. Discover and eliminate 20% of problems that take most of the time. Identify the 20% that give you 80% of the results and be happy about that. Don’t aim for 100% quality and perfectionism all the time. Aim for 80% so you only have to work on the 20% and significantly save time. [PRACTICE][E277_Exercise_PastPerformanceAndFutureGoals][INDIVIDUAL]To Tutor: Use this eye-opening exercise to help delegates examine their daily activities and relate them to their objectives and mission statement. It helps them to understand how to get rid of the unessential and focus on the essential instead. Relate this to the 80/20 rule just discussed.
