All of us know that time is money. But we have limited amounts of time in our lives - 24 hours every day. So, how one can make millions of dollars and other - only hundreds? Both of them have these old 24 hours daily. How come?

There are strategies to create time for you and make more money. One of these strategies is to boost your productivity. In other words if you could do more things for a given period of time, you can make more money. (Let me say it once again - the productivity is not the only way to create more time, but it is the first and most important step.)

According to my practice, here I am going to give you 7 ways that will help you increase your productivity dramatically.

1. Do the Things Faster Than Usual

Move fast. do the things fast. Type faster. Arrange those stupid documents faster. You know, when you move adn act faster you will finish more tasks. Isn’t that true?

2. Become an Expert In What You Are Doing

When I was a novice web designer I heeded whole week to finish a simple web site. Now, 9 years after, I am able to finish (design, develop, upload, test, st online) a fully functional web site within 3 to 6 hours. I mean from scratch. If I use Wordpress or Joomla the time diminishes to 1-2 hours. My point is that when you are expert in something, you are on the top productivity level for that activity.

3. Check Your E-mail Twice a Day, Not More

Checking e-mails, replying them, writing stupid messages takes time and this time is your money. So, organize the things better. Check your mail at 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. every day. Check, answer, write and close your mail client. Forget it.

4. Be The One Who Chooses When To Make The Phone Call

Phone calls are one of the most dangerous and efficient killers of productivity. When somebody calls you you need to interrupt what your are doing, you need to re-focus your attention on new problems. And after the call you should re-focus back to your current work. This is so unproductive. Don’t answer the phone. Let calls to pile up in your “Missed calls” folder. Then choose a period of the day and make all the calls in bulk.

5. Get Into Meetings One Or Two Times A Week

Meetings are usually stupid and pointless. Avoid them at any cost. But if this is impossible, than choose two (not more) days in the week and devote them to meetings only. Don’t even try to do something serious those days. The other three days use to do all other important tasks that need to be done.

6. Delegate As Much Work As Possible

Being the performer is not the best position. Try to delegate and control as much work as possible. Delegate, outsource, doesn’t matter… Just don’t let the low priority tasks to consume your valuable time.

7. Just Do It! Stop Procrastination! Now!

It is much easier to say it than do it, isn’t it? But action is crucial for every success. If you don’t believe me, just try to make ten million dollars in one year just by watching TV or sleeping on the couch… If you succeed I will buy your e-book “How I made 10 Million Dollars In One Year By Sleeping On My Coach” for $49.95.

As you can see it is a bit hard to follow this ways, but who said that the ways to success should be easy to follow?
