However, if you want to create a three- year vision of being a millionaire, perhaps a one-year goal that is consistent with that vision is to double your auctions this year with the intent of doubling them again the year after.

    Here are three ways to transform your distractions into productive time...

    It is nine o’clock on a Monday morning and you are downstairs in your home office. You begin your day as usual, and with no apparent glitches in sight. But as history has taught you, the auction business is an endless game of “who knows what’s around the corner”.

    By 10 am, your day is starting to be filled with things you weren’t even thinking about an hour earlier, and by noon, the rest of your day has no resemblance whatsoever to the schedule you set out to accomplish just a mere three hours earlier.

    In addition to the lack of direction your day has taken, or perhaps a lack of direction that you have allowed it to take, phones have been ringing, children and the dog interrupting you, family “emergencies” come up, and before you know it, your day is shot.

    Have you ever calculated how much time you actually spend prospecting? Given all your distractions, and the number of times you get side-tracked in a day, how much of your day is productive.

    For the average person, about 20 percent of your day is productive. If you look at any result you have in your life, 80 percent of that result can be accounted for by only 20 percent of your efforts doing what auctioneers do.

    Here are three proven ways to transform your distractions into productive time:

    1. Create a vision, I didn’t say a goal or task list. A vision is the driving force behind any goal you set. Visualizing your self already in possession of those things you want creates an emotional involvement in the achievement of that goal.

    2. Make a list of goals that are consistent with your vision. There is no sense in creating a three year vision of being a millionaire and a one-year goal of earning $75,000. The one year goal is not consistent with the three year vision. However, if you want to create a three- year vision of being a millionaire, perhaps a one-year goal that is consistent with that vision is to double your auctions this year with the intent of doubling them again the year after.

    Intuition – The Gut Brain for Business Success
    A wise and dear mentor once said to me "Given enough information your intuitive sense will be validated."
