Here’s a great way to get stuff done.  Do what you feel like doing when you feel like doing it – but ensure you’re knocking things off your ‘important’ list.  I’m a big fan of this approach to working.  Time Management expert Mark Forster knows how to get stuff done and has turned this approach into a set of systems he calls ‘Autofocus’.  You can check them out here. They won’t suit everyone, but you can always adapt them to suit.  Start by using them to get stuff done at the weekend for example.

I’ve used a similar approach over the last couple of years.  I determine what has to be done and what I really want to get done that day.  I list them.  I swallow the frogs first (great tip here).  Then I use ‘autofocus’ to get the rest done when I feel ready to do them.  It’s an interesting way to keep up your energy and motivation.  Give it a go.

P.S. You should enjoy your working day more using this approach as well as become more productive.  If you consistently don’t feel like doing anything on your ‘important’ list then you’re probably in the wrong job. You might want to think about finding a career in which you’ll nearly always feel like doing something from your ‘important’ list. You can help yourself here or join the Facebook page here.
