Action Challenge

This Month's Challenge  
Where did the day go?

If at the end of the day, you step back and notice that you worked all day but didn't take enough action on your most important tasks, considering tracking and analyzing your time.  

Chrome Time Track is a free Google Chrome app that can make time tracking simple.  Commit to using Chrome Time Track four days in a row to get a good sense of where your time is going.

Tasks you may consider tracking:

  • Emails
  • Meetings
  • Online distractions (Facebook, YouTube)
  • Interruptions


Make sure that you add tasks that are critical to your job function, like "sales calls", "proposal creation", etc.


Tell us what you found in our discussion on Google+!

Take Five  
Take Five for Five
  1. In what you are doing now, what is giving you the greatest sense of accomplishment?
  2. In what you are doing now, what is giving you the least sense of accomplishment?
  3. What are your personal strengths?
  4. What areas need development?
  5. Many people have a “secret project” or a very private plan for “sometime” in life. What is your “Real Aim in Life?”


Evaluating ourselves and our organizations should come more than once a year. Don’t wait for yearly review time or job interview preparation to examine your accomplishments and strengths.

Action Idea: Answer these “Five Questions” and use your findings as you begin to set goals for next month.
