Find your sweet spot
(Aka your most productive time of day.)

Ok so I’m sure a lot of my readers noticed that I had to guest post yesterday. And worse I tried a time switch on when I posted my articles. Disastrous moments. You see I tried to attempt a change that wasn’t doing to suit my business model when it comes to my blog. I learned a few lessons from this and ill share them now.

First- If it aint broke don’t fix it.
I shouldn’t have changed. Now that sounds ignorant to some, I know. But I knew I’d have a hard time switching and did it anyway. My timing and groove has been pretty sweet and when I switched it I lost some of that- a lot actually. So if in your business or in anything in life: what works don’t fix. Stick with it and ride it out. When it falters. You will know. And when results drop, if you monitor those, you will know.

Second- stick with what you know, adjust accordingly.
I shouldn’t have changed the timing said that. I knew what worked for me and didn’t adhere. Ignorance wasn’t the culprit. The culprit was a knee jerk reaction. I decided to make a change and did it. I didn’t think it through. What should have occurred? The right way to do this was a twenty four (24) hour wait period. No business decision, or any decision for that matter, should be made quickly. Rash and prudent are two vastly different concepts. What solution would really kill right now? Write at the same time and send blasts in the AM. Write at the same time and publish using the que or advance feature to set the timing to coincide with what my readers want. You see I learned these ideas after rushing into a change. I missed them by not waiting. Lesson learned on my part. What are you rushing into? What shouldn’t you do? Ponder that my friends.

Third- Find your most productive day or most productive time of day in relation to specific tasks.
Now that my friends is the true meat of my article. You see we all have a time of day when we are tebow, lebron, manning, or jordan. The question is do you know this time of day when you reach your pinnacle? Some of you folks are morning people. Others only thrive at night. I am a night person. I do well in the morning don’t get me wrong but for completion on the play concerning this blog- night time. I get most of my best ideas in the afternoon. Specifically during my gym time which is between four and six pm. You see I’ve not only examined what time works for me but what times and what activities produce the greatest efforts throughout my day. The lesson here is that we have to collect data- Even On Our Selves. Take time to examine what is and isn’t working in every aspect. Remember knowledge is always power. And to be successful you have to move from a position of power and maintain a posture of power. And a simple way to begin that process is data collection.
Find your sweet spot. Know when you are productive and increase your productivity.
