I’m thrilled to announce the availability of Action Enforcer.
Action Enforcer is a desktop application that takes the powerful concept of “time boxing” to a whole new level. In future posts I’ll get into specifics about how this happens, and how it’s helped numerous early users, but for now let me just give you my personal case story.
Before I started using Action Enforcer, I thought I was fairly productive. In fact I wrote a book, 5 Bucks a Day about the power of setting small weekly and intermediate goals and focusing on tasks to reach those short term goals. The book was and still is popular, and the strategy flat out worked (the main target is Internet marketers, but others can benefit from the strategy).
Still, focus was always a challenge for me. I know how effective it is, but there are so many daily distractions that it would become easy to go off track.
Since I started using Action Enforcer, going off track is no longer an issue. I schedule my day with the software first thing in the morning. I know immediately how full my day is, and can balance it accordingly, and start to work.
Before Action Enforcer, I would do the same thing on paper, and normally I’d write down 3 or 4 things that I wanted to accomplish. And, normally I’d accomplish them. But here’s the rub …
Parkinson’s Law states that work expands to fill the time alloted to it. So subconsciously it was working against me. Those 3 or 4 tasks would take me all day to complete.
Now, I schedule my day with Action Enforcer, and typically, when I do my 15 minute planning session every morning, I’ll see that there are between 8 and 12 things that I can expect to accomplish, instead of 3 or 4. And typically, unless there’s an emergency that gets in the way, those 8 to 12 things, and sometimes more, will get done.
I’m at least 200% more productive, and probably more on most days, using Action Enforcer than without using it.
