Today I need to get more done than I did yesterday. Tomorrow will bring even more. I am not referring to the never ending to-do list. That is here to stay. Accepted. My challenge is regarding the quantity I need to accomplish for the variety of responsibilities I have in life. The art of juggling, if you will. Many productivity articles offer me enlightened answers: ‘miracle hack to boost your productivity’ and ’39 things successful people do before breakfast’. Maybe these superheroes only get to pour their cornflakes at 11:30? This following list is a ‘what’, and not a ‘how’. You can figure out the how for yourself, be it downloading a mobile app to streamline some part of your life or delegating a time consuming task that doesn't really require your head nor your hands, but through some trial I've found practices and behaviours that help me manage what it is I need achieve. 1. Get enough sleep If you’re physically or mentally exhausted you simply cannot be as effective. Lack of sleep has a massive effect on health and well-being. You want to live long and happy? Sleep optimally. 2. Wake up early Create a new 60-90 minute window before the usual day kicks in. Exercise, work on that side-line project when fresh or tackle one of those nagging tasks. Yes, you will need to go to bed earlier. Decide what’s important, “Who killed J.R.?”. Don’t hit snooze. 3. Divide to conquer Carve up the days, weeks and month to create time-boxes with boundaries that fit your life. We all wear multiple hats: work vs family vs play vs commitments. Life is full? Balance. 4. Plan with purpose What should you be doing? Meditate on the long term picture. Create to-do lists. Multiple lists, one for each hat. Prioritise based on importance and value. Organise efficiently, consider people, places and patterns. Things change? Yes they do. 5. Get things done Which time-box is scheduled? What does your plan say? Start at the top of the list and work down. Tackle one task at a time and focus. Multitasking is bad. Perfectionist tendencies? Do just enough. 6. Protect your turf Schedule specific periods to tackle email. Avoid accepting other people’s monkeys. Politely decline superfluous meetings. Resist impulsive web browsing. Turn off social media notifications. Distracted? Remember value. 7. Look after yourself Make sure your environment is comfortable. We all have concentration spans, take regular breaks. Eat well and drink well. Exercise daily. Difficulty in forming habits and practices? 21 days ‘they’ say. Productivity advice works best in the context of your personality and situation. This works for me. What works for you?]]>

0 Steps To Business Analysis Competency Success /slideshow/steps-to-business-analysis-competency-success/43755830 stepstobusinessanalysiscompetencysuccess-150121142006-conversion-gate02
Business Analysis can be likened to where Project Management was 20 years ago; in that we are in the infancy of formalising our profession, whilst continuing to battle certain stereotypes and particular stigma. Accordingly, as Business Analysts it is time to reflect and analyse ourselves by asking a few hard questions: what are we doing, how are we doing and what should we be doing. Too often the answers may default to the traditional 'silver bullet': new shiny silver processes and a few bullets fired. Yet to successfully fulfil our potential we must look more holistically, with our roots firmly entrenched in providing quantitative and qualitative business value. We propose that there six tightly interwoven dimensions that build our operational capability towards accomplished delivery, with the added irony that we should shape our destiny in the same manner we shape others; as we have all the skills and tools we need in our pockets.]]>
