Have you increased your productivity this week? Productivity is an important skill to develop, which enables you to more effectively use your time for reaching your goals. This is a big activity to tackle, so take this week to really focus on two skills:
1) Plan weekly: choose a weekly plan form (see more @Free Tools), and take a few minutes to do a weekly review.
2) Plan daily: review, use a to-do list, and add incoming tasks to your system.
This is one of the weekly activities for a Year of Personal Development.
