A personal mission statement reminds you where you're coming from and puts your life in perspective. When you feel frustrated, you can go back and read how much you've progressed over a specific time.

Progress can sometimes feel like endless staircases where you climb and climb, but can never see the end.A personal mission statement allows you to look back and see how far you've climbed.

Acknowledging Progress

You will always have thousands of tasks demanding your time and attention. Prioritize the tasks that will help you progress towards your vision and goals.

Prioritizing

Look at everything you do from big projects to small tasks and remove anything that doesn't add value. Outsource projects or drop them altogether. Unsubscribe from email newsletters.If you have a "brilliant" new idea, save it for the beginning of the new year. For now, learn to say no to yourself. Delay your ideas for the new year.

Working On the Right Things

Deadlines are the latest time by which something needs to be completed. A "deathline" is if you do not complete a task by a specific date, it doesn't get pushed back but deleted entirely. "Deathlines" are useful to rid yourself of what you thought were obligations but were really suggestions.

The Power of “Deathlines”

Set up rules of engagement to remind you of how you should take care of yourself, your body, and your work. They serve as reminders of what you are doing wrong and how to slowly correct things.

Rules of Engagement

One of the best return-on-time-invested exercises I have been doing in the last few months is writing a personal mission statement. It's been 18 months since I've embarked on the journey of self-employment. It's been hard, but rewarding. And just when it starts to get easier, it gets harder again.
