Because if you can't organize yourself personally, you're wasting precious time - and time is money, as we all know. On the other hand, with the help of clever time and self-management methods, you can learn to tickle even more performance out of yourself. And if you work more effectively, your sales will soon skyrocket. Sounds good? Then we have just the thing for you today: Here are 5 practical self-management methods for your business!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading p1\" id=\"h-was-ist-selbstmanagement\"><span class=\"s1\">What is self-management? <\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Before we get started, let's take a quick look at the definition. What does self-management actually mean? It's simple: If you have the ability to manage yourself optimally, you will easily achieve your (sales) goals. In concrete terms, self-management consists of your <a href=\"https:\/\/greator.com\/en\/objectives\/\">Setting Goals<\/a>The right motivation, clever planning and sensible organisation are the key to success. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Prioritizing tasks is also an important aspect of self-management. Why? Because you need to decide which tasks are relevant at what time within a short period of time. So, the secret of self-management is to distinguish the essential from the non-essential and then give 100 percent to get the essential done in a timely manner. Here come 5 self-management methods that will help you do that and increase your sales in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In our <a href=\"https:\/\/greator.com\/en\/soft-skills\/\">List of relevant skills<\/a> you get a structured overview of all the soft skills that really count.<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading p1\" id=\"h-1-not-to-do-liste-beim-selbstmanagement\"><span class=\"s1\">1. not-to-do list in self-management<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Almost everyone has bad habits that prevent them from being productive and systematically working through the most important tasks in self-employment. Therefore, make a note of all the aspects that ...<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"s1\">make you unproductive.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">taking up your time.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">are extremely costly.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">make you question your goals.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you've done that, it's much easier to focus on important tasks and try to eliminate the distractors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading p1\" id=\"h-2-smart-methode-fur-dein-selbstmanagement\"><span class=\"s1\">2. <\/span>SMART method for your self-management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">The second practical method was developed as early as 1956 and helps you formulate your goals. Whenever you need to estimate tasks and deadlines as realistically as possible, the SMART method is ideal. It stands for<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Specific: Describe your goals as specifically as possible.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Measurable: Establish measurable factors.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Attractive: Plan your goals in a way that makes you want to do them.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Realistic: Check your goals for their feasibility.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Deadline: Set a realistic deadline.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading p1\" id=\"h-3-eisenhower-methode\"><span class=\"s1\">3. the Eisenhower method<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">The Eisenhower method is a coordinate system and ensures one thing above all: order. It organizes to-do's according to their relevance and urgency and can therefore be extremely helpful in everyday work. Divide your goals into ...<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Tasks that are urgent and important: These you do yourself immediately.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Urgent<span class=\"s1\"> and unimportant tasks: These you pass on to experts or employees.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Tasks that are not urgent but important: You'll do them yourself later.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">Non-urgent or unimportant tasks: You can ignore these with a clear conscience.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading p1\" id=\"h-4-alpen-methode\"><span class=\"s1\">4. ALPEN method<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">The fourth method also helps wonderfully to structure your tasks and thus to gain a better overall view. ALPEN stands for ...<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"s1\">A for Set Task. <\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">L as in estimate length. <\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">P for buffer time. <\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">E like <a href=\"https:\/\/greator.com\/en\/making-decisions\/\">make decisions<\/a>. <\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"s1\">N as in perform follow-up inspection. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Small weakness of the self-management method: Sometimes the ALPEN method is relatively time-consuming. With a little practice, however, you will become much faster within a short time and then benefit enormously from the method. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading p1\" id=\"h-5-selbstmanagement-die-pomodoro-methode\"><span class=\"s1\">5. self-management: the Pomodoro method <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">With the Pomodoro method, you work for 25 minutes with high concentration and then take a break for five minutes. Then you go full throttle again and give yourself a longer break of 30 minutes after four sessions. Quite simple, isn't it? And yet the method is extremely efficient for some.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p1 wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"s1\">Now it's your turn: Find out which of the 5 self-management methods works best for you personally, and then start implementing them. Because the more effectively you work, the higher the turnover you generate. So it's worth it.
