Which comes first, the story or the statement? When you’re trying to implement ethical influence into your sales process, the best way to start is with a story. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed but that is exactly how I start each and every one of my episodes.

Creating a movement is significantly more lucrative than finding a market because of that engagement. I’m sharing everything you need to know about the elements of a movement, why they outperform markets, and how you can monetize them.

It’s the year 2012 and I’m in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia after a 5-Day Guerilla Business Intensive event.

For many people in the world, not just entrepreneurs, but human beings in general, there is a constant need to be more productive… but what does that mean? Better yet, why do we work so hard to be productive, but not necessarily effective? 

 

Peter Drucker defined efficiency as doing things right but effectiveness as doing the right things. Dan Sullivan defines productivity as doing as many things as possible in as little time as possible but priority as doing the right things at the right time. 

 

Both of these definitions are the baseline of the 5 P’s. You see when you’re working through productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness, many times you’re in a mode of switch-tasking. Instead, to get the most out of your time, you should monotask.

You should work through each P, one at a time, until the assembly line is done and then switch to the next line. Listen in to learn what the 5-Ps are, the order in which you should do them, and why you should use them to become more effective in your personal and professional life. Your three key insights are: 

 

  • What the 5-Ps of Effectiveness are and why they are critical to success. 
  • What the difference is between efficiency and effectiveness. 
  • How to become more effective in your personal and professional life.

 

Which tasks are you going to move from switch-tasking to monotasking? How will it help your effectiveness?
