Rules to stay on top of your game (in Business)

Hello dear,
Here are a few rules I apply to get on top of My Game (in Business)

1. My day starts with God. He provides the purpose, Direction, clarity and helps me sort through the insanity of conflicting priorities. Business inWest Africa is tough enough. Imagine not knowing what to do at all.

2. Next, I build on confidence.
Confidence inspires others. I need to provide purpose, direction, clarity and a sense of meaning for others around me.
Clean teeth inspires confidence,Neat clothes inspire confidence,A clean shave inspires confidence,A good smell inspires confidence,Proper Knowledge inspires confidence, A tidy office inspires confidence,My internal man exerting control over my external environment inspires confidence in me.

3. Identify strong time blocks and weak time blocks. Some things can be done easier at some times than at other times. A key component to staying on top of my game is
to understand timing and my energy bursts and allocate high energy periods to my core priorities.

4. Attend to my core priorities first. For me, this will always be a battle but it is needed to maintain excellence. Some things can only be done by me. I do them first. Within the 2 hr limit I set, my phone goes off and I disappear. A rising public figure like me :-) should not always be available, otherwise i'll be worth less when I show up.

5. I work fast. I work hard. I learn fast, I unlearn the no longer valid. In today's world of rapid change, what you've learnt is irrelevant. It's what you need to unlearn that matters. My laptop computer and the internet are two powerful tools I make use of। I can't imagine how I got this far without them.
