As an accountant, I remember doing calculations about limiting factors. Oddly enough, we never did any calculations related to our ultimate limiting factor, which is our time.

We all have the same amount of time available to us. So what differentiates those who achieve better results from the rest?

One of the key factors is where we invest our time.

Getting clear on where you are investing your time starts with recording where you are spending it. Keep track of where your time is being spent for a week or two and see if you are investing it on those things that make a difference.

Once you know where you are spending your time, you can start to make changes that really make a difference to the results that you achieve.

So what’s your first step?

Let me ask you a question: What’s your priority as leader?

Interestingly, when I ask clients this question they often struggle to come up with an answer.

Yet, without knowing your priorities, you will:

• Struggle with decisions on how to allocate your time.
• Carry on doing things that you should no longer be doing.
• Waste time and effort.
• Struggle to deliver the results you are expected to deliver.

So if you want to be a more successful leader, make a point of identifying your priorities.
