Learn the top three strategies of high achievers to increase your business success
By Warren Wandling
Do you find yourself working at a slow pace with a low energy? If you want to work as a high achiever, then analyze how fast you work on tasks during your day. Ask yourself these questions: How faster do I move through my day? And, on a scale from 1 to 10 where am I? (10 indicates that you are moving fast.) The faster you move the more momentum you create. The more momentum you create the more you will accomplish. Get into activity that will produce high achieving results. As Dave Ramsay says, “gazelle intense.”
Here are three top techniques that high achievers use in their chosen profession.
The first strategy is to work faster. Pick up your pace. Whatever you are working on, beware of your pace that you are working. Do you find yourself working at slower pace with a low energy level or are you working at a high level urgency? Develop a sense of urgency about your day. Get into the do it now habit. Use the ABC priority system. List your tasks that need to be completed for the day and label them with an A, B or C. An A task is something that needs to be finished today. Work only on the A tasks before moving onto a B or C task. Developing a fast pace is key to becoming a High Achiever.
The second strategy is to work longer and harder. Have you ever said to yourself “ I can’t get anything done at work”? This is a common frustration. You must resolve that you are going to work harder and be focused all day long. If you find yourself being interrupted by other co-workers simply use the phrase “back to work.” Schedule two hours everyday without interruptions. Start an hour earlier, and stay an hour later. This will add two extra hours of productive time in your day, which is equal to an extra person working at your current pace. Use the clock as a tool to help you keep track of how much time you have until your next task. As you start to use this strategy your energy level will increase along with your productivity.
The third strategy is to focus on your high payoff activities (HPA) Write down five to seven tasks that are the most important for you to complete everyday. If you are a manager, scheduled a one-on-one proactive coaching meetings, on a weekly basis, with each of your team members is a top priority. If you are sales professional, talking with prospects is an HPA. Clients who use this strategy report that they get more satisfaction from their work. Make your list of your HPA’s today and you will start getting more job satisfaction.
To learn more how to become a high achiever and get greater results in your day, decide which coaching program is right for you.

Entrepreneurs and Business Owners
Are you working hard to grow your business and things aren’t happening as fast as you want?
Stop struggling and create a
MAJOR business BREAKTHROUGH.
You are about to learn 3 simple steps to eliminate your struggle and double your time off.
Do you feel overwhelmed, with all the information that you are exposed to on a daily basis: email, voice mail, the Internet, cable and social media?
Have you found yourself deleting emails without reading then?
Another reason we feel overwhelmed is due to the intense negative news that we all hear everyday. When dealing with that overwhelmed feeling regularly, you can either give up or figure out how to persevere.
Failure Is Not an Option
Remember Apollo 13? Failure is not an option. Failure is not an option for you either.
It is a little known fact that more millionaires were made during the great depression then any other period in history. And here we are again in a similar time. Is this your time?
One of the names you may recognize from this period is Harland Sanders aka, Colonel Sanders- the founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken.
He learned how to persevere. At the age of 65, he started traveling by car to different restaurants and cooked his fried chicken on the spot for restaurant owners. If the owner liked the chicken, they would enter into an agreement to sell the Colonel's chicken.
Colonel Sanders would receive a nickel for each piece of chicken the restaurant sold. By 1964, Colonel Sanders had 600 franchisees selling his chicken. At this time, he sold his company for $2 million dollars.
According to a well-known legend, Colonel Sanders heard 1009 "no's" before he heard his first "yes".
How many no’s have you heard today, this week, or this month? Are you ready to quit? Remember he was turned down one thousand and nine times before he heard his first YES!
So how do you develop the perseverance you need in today’s economy?
Three Simple Steps to Success
There are three simple steps that will help you develop your perseverance and eliminate your struggle.
Step one –
Be intentional about what you expose to your mind to. I decided to go on news fast recently, so I turned off my cable. To get my necessary news, on Sunday or Monday- I log on to my favorite news website and look at the headlines and read the articles that are of interest to me. I chose not to listen to the same negative stories over and over again. I found myself being drawn into the 24/7-hour news World we live in. I find the important news stories I have heard about. So I stay informed. Trust me people will tell you about the big news story of the day.
Listen:
You must be intentional about exposing yourself to positive material. Make sure you are listening to mp3 or CDs that will encourage you. Some of my favorites are John C Maxwell- on Leadership, Brian Tracy, and Jim Rohn. Listen while you are doing something else- like working out, getting ready of your day or while you are driving. A technique that will increase your learning is called Spaced repetition. Listen to the same mp3 or CD for 7 days in a row. This will reinforce the learning process.
Reading
Read a book on leadership or self-development for 15 minutes a day. This will help keep your mind focused on material that will move you towards your goal. Plan when you are going to read- morning, during lunch, or evening time. Be intentional.
Affirmations- An affirmation is a positive statement written in the present tense. If you are not using this technique, write down a few affirmations to help you be intentional about your thinking. The national science foundation says we have 50 thousand thoughts a day. Those thoughts are either move towards your goal or away from your goal. A Key to you success is taking action. So, here are a few affirmations to get you started. I put my plan into action. I have the “do it now” habit.
When you are saying your affirmations the more emotion you have when you say them it will help reinforce the process.
Second Step:
Master your Time- I want you to determine the top 5 tasks to focus on daily that will give you the greatest result in your day. That is what I call your HPA’S (high payoff activities). Then I want you to spend 80% of your day on the top 20%. The LPA is your low payoff activities. A LPA for example is reading your email. Have you ever found yourself reading the same email twice in one day or maybe three times?
Here a few question that will assist you in determining your HPA’S.
1. You are completely responsible for the task, if you don’t do it the HPA it will not be completed.
2. The HPA is under your control.
3. What are the results you are expected to achieve in your position?
I believe when you focus on your HPA’S, you will become a High Performance Achiever!
Third Step:
Mastermind group- accountability is another key to your success. When you develop a mastermind group, make sure you have no more then 4 people. It keeps it simple. You want to make sure you have like-minded people on your mastermind. Are they all willing to work towards their goals and take action?
The fastest way to stop struggling and start growing your business is to hire a coach. You will be amazed how quickly you are able to achieve your goals and stop struggling.
