For example, if I have Microsoft Excel XP and would like to send a file to a client that only has Microsoft Excel 97 (which was a horrible disaster for Microsoft, since there were quite a few bugs in this version), you could save the file as a Microsoft Excel 97 version. I remember in the past that you can always downgrade files.

F or example, if you want to make a million dollars before you die, write out exactly what you want and how you will achieve this. Another thing that helps people to get motivated is by writing some sort of mantra on a piece of paper or printing it out. This way, when you sit down, you can read it each and every day.

For example, you want to spend one hour on a particular project. But of course, you don’t want to disturb others around you with the bell going off or some even have chickens clucking as the alarm. To avoid this, try using an online timer instead. Virtual Stopwatch gives you the option to set a predetermined amount of time.

For example, I will try to work on task A for 1 hour. Narrow them down to the amount that you can manage (usually 3 - 5), but some people can do more or less. Move all of the other tasks to the next day or time that you can tackle them. Next, add a time frame to each task. Then I will work on Task B for 30 minutes and so on and so forth.

Heres an example of what happened with me. The downfall of outsourcing is that youre not sure if the quality of the work will be presented, since you are relying one someone or a company to do the work for you and might not be to your standards.

Note: Make sure to add the time in the meeting schedule (for example: Meeting with client, 1:00 pm Calgary time), so the manager knows that this is the correct time to meet with this client.

I get home at night and regularly find 40 new messages in my Inbox that I have to sift through.

Managing expectations and leading by example. Set up reminders, checklists and process docs for anything you do over and over again. Organize information you refer to often in folders or databases. I’m a virtual gal and a firm believer in storing these things in the cloud in such places as Google Docs and Dropbox.

For example, if all you need is a place to store contact information and keep your calendar, that is much different than a system that can prompt you for different types of follow up, keep templates, etc. For example, techno-phobes shouldn't force themselves to use a computerized calendar if they are more comfortable with a paper planner.

For example, while clients will usually ask about price, scheduling or procedures, it's incumbent upon me to volunteer information regarding how my cancellation policy works, whether I'll call to confirm appointments and what payment types are acceptable. Google Docs was used to share the process sheets amongst ourselves.

I used to do some writing in Google Docs, some in Evernote, some in Byword and some in Scrivener. Once I finally adopted this simplified system, I only have to open the one doc every day. For example, I’ve noticed that when I have a 30 minute call scheduled, I often let it go 45 minutes to an hour. My ebook chapters.
