More Self-Sabotage Time Management Tips
ByInformation Overload Tip: IGNORE Massive Action Advice!
You probably have heard your favorite success or Internet Marketing guru tell you to take “massive action” or some variation of that advice.
They tell you to have written goals, clear goals, then take massive action along the path to getting there. And they are right: it still amazes me that most people stumble through life with little self-direction, preferring instead that life throw a bunch of problems at them…
So, if you are anything like me (i.e., goal-directed), you do everything you can to follow their advice and TAKE that “massive action . . . because, after all, they ARE successful, right?

Information Overload?
The problem is that most of us are VERY UNSKILLED at taking massive action. Trying then leads to confusion, loss of productivity, lack of focus and LOTS of stress and self-sabotage. While its great to have specific goals, too many at once can lead to instant burnout.
I found it pays to just take ONE STEP at a time!
I make a small list everyday of items that I can accomplish. Even if it is a single item. I write it down in my Day-Timer (yes, I still use them) and do my best to get it done. If I don’t, I write it again on the next day’s page – or whenever I feel I can best get to it.
Even if you do only 4 small, tangible action items each day, you can accomplish miracles. By tracking your progress weekly and monthly, you will be excited about your goal and what you have accomplished.
The strange thing about this simple technique is that it “quiets” my mind. When I am working on a task, I don’t worry about all of the other things that need to get done. I can put all of my focus into that one task and be positive that whatever I am doing is something that will move my business one step closer to my goal.
Something that is often overlooked (I know I did) is the importance of time management skills for entrepreneurs.
Remember, Self-sabotage can be disastrous if you are the only “self” in the company! Learn to minimize it, and live your success!
