You don't have time to do everything you only have time to do everything that matters!
If we can get clear about those activities that make the biggest difference to our productivity we can get more done in less time and free ourselves up to get on with whatever else we choose.
According to the New York Times, today's executives spend 1-2 hours a day looking for "stuff" - computer files, paper files, documents, articles, passwords, web URLs and so on. Imagine!!! If that is true both in the office and at home, that means about 14 hours a week or about a full day of waking time!
Now, if you were to implement systems and processes that reduced every "search" to a matter of seconds, that would surely save a lot of time - could easily be the equivalent of a full work-day every week, that could be spent much more productively (either on work projects, on your hobbies or with your loved ones).
So, consider if a lifetime of 8 or more EXTRA productive hours EVERY week is worth an up-front investment in an effective system, and think about what systems and processes you could implement to make "looking for stuff" fast, easy and effective.
