Want to Write a Bestselling Book with Me?

A couple of months ago, I sent out an announcement to my blog subscribers asking them for contributions for my new book, “Public Speaking Tips from the Pros”. I’m thrilled to announce that the book is now nearing completion!  Thank you!

I’ll be giving out FREE review copies of the book to all the readers on the blog, so if you haven’t already, be sure to sign up for my mailing list.
I’m now in the process of creating a second book called, “How Successful People Work”. I’d like to invite you to co-author the book with me.

How You Can Participate:

Contribute one chapter to the book (minimum 750 words). Your bio and links to your website will appear in the book. The chapter you decide to work on should contain all or some of the following:

  • Stories of successful, productive people using the technique
  • Tips on how to apply the technique (e.g. if you say “Get a good night’s sleep”, you also need to provide the HOW to get a good night’s sleep)
  • Scientific research – if appropriate, quote studies that have been done that show the effectiveness of the technique.

Choose from one of the following chapters:

 

SECTION 1: BEFORE YOU GET TO WORK 

Chapter 1:GET AN EARLY START
Why getting an early start makes you more productive

Chapter 2: EXERCISE/MEDITATE
Why doing some exercise or meditating makes you productive.

 

SECTION 2: YOUR FIRST HOUR AT WORK

Chapter 3: CREATE/UPDATE A LIST OF TASKS YOU WANT TO FINISH BY THE END OF THE DAY
Setting goals and writing them down increases your chances of achieving them by 80%
Chapter 4: EAT THE FROG
Get rid of the most frustrating, annoying task early in the morning. That way, you don’t keep procrastinating. The sense of satisfaction you will experience at having completed the task will motivate you and keep you going.

 

SECTION 3: THE REST OF THE DAY

Chapter 5: BREAK LARGE TASKS INTO SMALLER CHUNKS.
Why breaking a large task into smaller chunks makes you more productive.

Chapter 6: FOCUS.
Focus on one task at a time. Trying to complete too many tasks at once will divide your mental resources and is not very efficient.

Chapter 7: TAKE FREQUENT BREAKS.
When you find your attention drifting, take a break. Go for a walk.

Chapter 8: TAKE A PROPER LUNCH BREAK.
Get some healthy food into your body. Your body needs fuel in order to work.

Chapter 9. CREATE IF-THEN PLANS.
I’ll be writing this chapter.

Chapter 10. KEEP YOUR EYES FOCUSED ON THE END GOAL.
Why keeping focused on the end goal increases motivation and productivity.

 

SECTION 4: YOUR LAST HOUR AT WORK

Chapter 11. COMPILE ALL THE MATERIAL YOU NEED FOR THE FOLLOWING DAY OF WORK.
Pens, papers, files should all be organized when you get to work so that you can immediately start working on the important tasks instead of spending time focused on getting organized.

Chapter 12. CREATE A LIST OF TASKS YOU WANT TO GET FINISHED THE NEXT DAY.
Why creating a to-do list for the following day makes you more productive.

 

SECTION 5: AFTER WORK

Chapter 13. RELAX. GET SOME REST. GET AWAY FROM WORK.
Spend time with your family and doing what you enjoy. Give yourself some time to yourself and with your friends and family. Having a healthy balance between work and life will keep you happy and motivated at work.

Chapter 14. BE GRATEFUL
Happy brains are 31% more productive

Chapter 15. GET ADEQUATE SLEEP.
Having 8 hours of sleep boosts your productivity. Lacking sleep makes you error prone and, according to studies, lowers your IQ.
