Parkinson’s Law
Here are four questions you can ask yourself every day to keep yourself on your most important tasks:
1. What are my highest value activities? What are the things that I do that contribute the greatest amount of value to my work?
2. What are my key result areas? What are the specific results that I have been hired to accomplish?
3. Why am I on the payroll? Why do they pay me money at my job? What specifically have I been asked to do?
4. What can I, and only I, do that, if done well, will make a real difference? If I don't do it, it won't get done. But if I do it, and I do it well, it will make a significant contribution to my work and my life. What is it?
