This comes from strategic coach Dan
Sullivan
There are two mindsets
The entrepreneurial mindset
And
The employee mindset
The employee mindset is based on time
and effort
“I have spent this much time or this
much effort so I have this result”
This is the basis for the long BUSY days
rather than any measurement of
productivity
The entrepreneurial mindset is slightly
different
It’s based on results only
it doesn’t matter if it takes YOU 1 hour
or 1 hundred hours what’s the result?
And as such every task you come across
falls in 4 categories
Not Urgent Non Important
Not Important But Urgent
Urgent Important
Not Urgent But Important
Why does this even matter?
Most people live in the first 3
Doing stuff that’s doesn’t matter and
not urgent like being on Facebook at
work
And then have to stay late and miss the
kids going to bed because something
urgent has to be finished that same
night
Most urgent unimportant stuff is where
you end up fire fighting
For other people’s f*ck ups or you not
delegating correctly in the first place
Dealing with sh*t today you could have
done last week
But the power, and the ability to stay
in-front is to
Take care of the IMPORTANT Not URGENT
"yet" stuff
And this is the hardest part
Especially for us,
We can pull some serious sh*t out of the
fire when our backs against the wall,
But this just leads to burnout and a
feeling like your going to war whenever
the working day starts
Here’s how you fix it
Whenever you can put your own enforced
deadlines on this stuff prior to the
actual-
F*ck you deadline
And after a while you start to get
in-front
This way you can be a sniper by being
strategic.
Which reminds me, everything we do in
golf performance is strategic
We stay ahead of the curve which keeps
us in front of pain and disfunction
