The Importance Of Choosing What You Know.
"Why Us" "We don't give excuses, we get results." John Massey - 27/9/2012
We live in an era where we are constantly updated with information from a variety of sources. If we aren’t careful we can quickly become overwhelmed by all of this information which is why we need to choose what we know.
From the moment we wake up, we are processing information. It can come from our smart phones, email, texts, social media, our TV’s, computers, tablets, newspapers, radio, signs, advertising, the Internet, our spouse, friends, family, colleagues and just about anybody else we come across throughout the day. Too often I see leaders trying to be involved in all aspects of their business. These people spend half their days gathering and processing information. I used to be this type of person but then realised I was missing opportunities because I was too worried about things that I couldn’t really do anything about. As leaders, we must be more selective in choosing the information that we know. We need to empower the people around us to make decisions based on the information they have and then not micromanage them. Just for one day, track all the information you receive and think about whether it helps you to achieve your goals. Make a conscious decision about whether you’ll continue to receive that type of information. You will find that you can easily win back at least a few hours each week just by being selective in what you know.
6 Ways To Choose What You Know 1. Stop being CC’d or BCC’d into so many emails. 2. Cut down the amount of meetings you have. 3. Empower your staff and direct reports to make decisions. 4. Don’t constantly check emails, sales numbers or updates from other systems. 5. Trust and support decisions made by other people. 6. Use an assistant to process information and only be updated on important matters that require a decision or action from you.
"Choosing the information you receive isn’t about being less informed or losing control of your business. It’s about being a more effective leader and having the time to focus on what really matters."
