Let’s discuss about how to get anything done framework.
Today, I want to share an exciting framework that I learned several years ago, decades ago, that has helped me greatly become more efficient and get more things done quickly and easily.
I am so excited to share this with you.
This, I call it how to get anything done framework.
It’s a big climb to get anything done. But when you look at it, when you understand this concept, you’ll be able to get many more things done efficiently and quickly, and that can increase your productivity to a great extent.
So, how to get anything done framework. It’s a three-step framework.
1)Define the “What”
Number one is the what, which means you need to know what needs to be done or what needs to get done.
Here’s the critical part. It has to get on your calendar. It has to find a place on your calendar.
Example
Let’s say things like writing a book, for example. I have seen many people who know they
want to write a book, but they keep postponing and procrastinating this to a someday project.
They think, okay, now I am going to get retired. I will write a book. Now, I’m going to in the future, when I reach a particular stage in my life then I will write a book, let children go out of school, go out of home for school or college. Then I will write a book. So, it keeps going on and on and on.
Unless your task is on your calendar, it gets a date and time, then it will never get done, most likely. Right.
So, the first step is to figure this out.
Put this in a statement.
What is it that you want to get done? Put it on your calendar. Give it a date, a deadline, and a time.
All right. It keeps you reminded even if it cannot be done within the deadline.
If you use Google Calendar, for example, it will be on your calendar, you will get reminders, and it will keep your focus on those upcoming days. Right.
2)Break It Down into Five Phases
The second thing, whatever the task, is significantly bigger things, dreams, goals, and achievements. Break it down into, let’s say, five significant steps or moves or phases. Break it down into five phases.
Why Five?
Because it is easier to remember. It is convenient. You can, for, in your case, it could be like three steps.
Why not more than five steps?
Because it becomes more complicated. Of course, each of these steps or phases or stages can have multiple items.
But break down this entire process into five major moves.
I’ll give you an example. We help authors, aspiring authors, experts, entrepreneurs, and professionals write their books.
Take this as a book, as a project, book, as a strategy.
There are five steps involved in this.
Five Major Stages For Book Writing
Example for how to get anything done framework
First Stage – Planning
The first stage is the planning stage, where we help our authors plan their content, bring all the resources together, get all the insights together and order it, structure it, and also think about their goals and aspirations and the dream outcome.
What are the topics that we are going to talk about in the book, and who are we going to write the book for?
So, all these things are in the planning stage.
Second Stage – Writing
Writing involves many subtasks, like putting everything together, writing the content and getting it, and ordering the structure.
So, there are so many things bringing in other resources.
Third Stage – Finishing
The third stage is the finishing stage, where a book, project, or book gets finished, like proofreading, editing, refining, enhancing the content, and formatting into different output formats like digital paperback, hardcover, and audiobook format.
So, recording those audios. So, all these things go into the finishing stage.
Fourth Stage – Publishing
The next stage, the fourth stage, is the publishing stage, where the book gets published, listed, and made available worldwide, putting together the ISBN and distribution networks, printing networks, and launching the book.
So, all these things happen in the publishing phase.
Fifth Stage – Leveraging
Most importantly, the next phase is the leveraging phase, which means that now that you are a published author, how do you leverage that newfound identity, respect, and credibility?
How do you leverage that and bring it into your existing life, business, and profession, and multiply the influence you get out of this exercise?
So, these are some of the five significant moves of thinking about a book to publishing and beyond, like that divide. Or categorize your big task into five essential steps, then you can achieve this.
The next big idea I want to share with you today is this idea of who and why?
Idea of who and why?|How To Get Anything Framework
Because initially, any big task, even things like writing your own book, requires a lot of focus, grit, determination, hard work, and resilience.
- When do you know who you are doing this for?
- Why are you doing this project in the first place?
- Is it because it benefits you?
- Is it just you?
- Is it also going to help your family, your kids, your children, your company, your business,
- Or the people in general or the world at large?
Who Knows?
You could be having these insights. Your project could impact a billion people. So, when you know the drive behind the task, the big thing you want to achieve, then the five steps are the tactical parts, the understanding of who you are doing this for, and why you like this to get done quickly.
Those two things, those two ideas, will give you tons of clarity.
Plus, most importantly, the fuel, the initial fuel, you need to push through the initial struggles. Once you hit that momentum, you start taking the steps when you start running.
You put things on the calendar. These are all tactical stuff. The strategy is the project and the who and why. When these are clear, that will give you the push you need. So that is how my friends, the top leaders, the top 1% in every industry, get so many things done.
You may have seen people in the top 1% or top 5% in any industry; they get to do so many things in your industry.
How?
Not just delegation, I mean, even to delegate. You should know what needs to be delegated, right?
- Those are all tools and resources. But overall, to get anything done, you need to know what it is and put it on the calendar – The first step.
- The second step is to break it down into five major moves.
- Then, the third one is to know your why and who is the beneficiary in this.
Conclusion – How to Get Anything Done Framework
So that’s how I get most of my things done. And that’s how I have seen many people get many things done. More prominent companies, especially because I deal with coaching, new authors, nonfiction, and business leaders.
They are very busy professionals, very busy leaders. They don’t have time.
That is why they have attempted to write a book when we meet. So, I make these things easier. It’s a big task. Writing a book is a big task. So, using these kinds of principles, we make it simpler.
I’m not saying easy. We make it simpler and easy to follow. Actually, it takes work to do. It is easy to follow. It makes life simpler. That’s how things get done. And I hope you found a lot of value in this.
