Many things in my life fluctuate up and down but one thing stays constant: I don't have enough time. Here are a few things I use to stay on track:

1. Google Calendar: If you are not using some sort of cloud calendar you need to start now. I can access AND edit my calendar from my iPhone or any computer. There is no longer an excuse to miss meetings. Google calendar or gCal as I call it has tools for invitations, reminders and alerts. Start using it and put your life into it. Don’t just put your meetings in it, put your classes, your gym time and when you are going to wake up in there. You can also share this via URL and color code it within the system. 

2. Don’t schedule back-to-back-to-back activities: You will burn out. This is just like working out; if you spend too much time in the gym one week you will not want to go in the next. Arrange your work/ school schedule so that there is some time in there for you to sit down and watch a movie or go for a run.

3. Work out: I know this sounds like it will just end up taking more time but it has been tested by hundreds of business leaders. Even getting 20 mins of activity a day will give you much more energy. Every time I feel lazy I remember that Richard Branson swims around his island everyday. If that isn’t a motivator I don’t know what is. 

Hopefully these help! If there are any tools you could suggest to me please email at:zach.hamilton@devilwash.com
