Work Less and Do More: Get-It-Done Guy’s Nine Steps to Work Less and Do More

Posted on January 18th, 2011 by Keith Ferrazzi

I am in a never-ending battle with distractions. There’s often a “Great Wall” of email, Facebook, and who knows what else between me and productivity.

So I am very thankful for my friend Stever Robbins' great guidance around how to get more done. Stever’s got a great podcast, The Get-It-Done Guy, and now a great book, Get-It-Done Guy’s Nine Steps to Work Less and Do More. I got him to wrap some the best of it into an RMA masterclass, to help whip our work flow into shape.

Here are a few of Stever’s tips:

  • Work on purpose: Keep your actions connected to your goals.
  • Stop procrastinating: Don’t subdivide tasks. Subdivide time. Even schedule time for your distractions so they won’t pop up during important tasks.
  • Conquer technology: Choose a timeframe to email, text, etc. If that doesn’t work, physically rearrange your workspace so you are separate from your gadgets.
  • Focus: Just say no. You set your priorities.

How do you stay focused and productive throughout the day?
