Ask for Advice

Here’s an easy way to boost your productivity: Ask for advice from knowledgeable others about how to complete a task in the most efficient way.

Example #1: Let’s suppose you want to do something you’ve never done before, such as set up a blog. If a quick Google search doesn’t return the results you’re seeking, then ask knowledgeable bloggers how they’d set up a blog if they were brand new to blogging.

Example #2: Perhaps you’re trying to set up a new business while taking care of a new baby. If you worked at it long enough, you’d probably learn through trial and error a few tips that would make your business time more productive. But you can save yourself by going straight to the source and asking other work-at-home parents how they juggle family and work.

Example #3: Let’s suppose you want to learn how to create and upload promotional videos on YouTube. Instead of fumbling around with lighting, audio, software and your camera, you should instead search Google or ask for advice to find out how to quickly and easily put together videos. Asking will not only save time, it will also likely save you money as well.
