How to make the most of your priorities

Hi there. Today I will like to share with you the wisom of Ivy Lee. If you are a per­son who doesn’t really have a good sys­tem in place for get­ting things done then I am sure you will enjoy this post.

Charles Schwab was the chair­man of the Beth­le­hem Steel and he was a very impor­tant man who did not really have a lot of free time cause he was very busy see­ing about the affairs of the company.

Now one day a busi­ness con­sul­tant by the name of Ivy Lee came up to him and said that he had a plan that if Mr. Schwab used it, would greatly increase his productivity.

Now Mr. Schwab had heard of all the strate­gies to increase pro­duc­tiv­ity before so he wasn’t going to be fooled by this man. How­ever Ivy Lee made a propo­si­tion. He said that he will give him the strat­egy for him to use and then only after using the strat­egy he should pay him how much he thinks that strat­egy is worth.

Now Charles did not have a prob­lem with this since all the risk was on Mr. Lee’s part. Ivy Lee handed him the strat­egy and he used it in Beth­le­hem Steel. Sev­eral weeks later, Ivy Lee received a check for $25,000.

Now I am sure that right now you are prob­a­bly won­der­ing what it could be that could be worth so much money. Let us call it the suc­cess six.

This was what Ivy Lee handed him on paper

1. Write down 6 things you need to do tomor­row and num­ber them 1 to 6.
2. Take that list and arrange it in order of importance
3. When you start the day begin the first task and don’t do any other task until you have fin­ished the one above it.
4. Work on down the list and when the list is through pre­pare another list for the next day
5. Do this every day and after doing it share it with your people

Now that was the advice that Mr. Charles Schwab paid $25,000 for. Why not try it in your life? Why not try it and see if it helps you life in any way.
