The TQ Lexicon of Success...

About The TQ Prioritize Color...

"Determine what specific goal you want to achieve. Then dedicate yourself to its attainment with unswerving singleness of purpose, the trenchant zeal of a crusader."
~ Paul J. Meyer

 

PRIORITIZE is the sixth color in the Time Prism Performance Spectrum because even though you want to complete every step of every plan, you can't complete them all at the same time.

Achieving maximum personal productivity means making conscious choices, deciding what can be done now and what can wait. It's having the self discipline to eliminate everything else temporarily so you can focus on what's most important now.

The TQ Prioritize Color is further broken down into 10 distinct actions, or Factors, each of which must be taken in order to keep this aspect of your performance burning brightly. Learn More...

 

The Power of Focus...

With millions of test records, we have found a direct 1:1 correlation between overall SUCCESS and the ability to systematically Prioritize your activities.

Put another way, people who struggle with failed hopes, dreams and expectations have a poorly developed sense of focus... which leads to fewer tangible Results... taking substantially more time to achieve. Hardly the prescription for success in this hotly-competitive global economy.

How good are your Prioritization skills? Are you at the peak of your potential... or are they holding you back from real success?

Take our 10 question TQ Prioritize Test now.

It only takes a couple of minutes to see how well YOU stack up against what the most successful people in the world say is absolutely critical to achieving true and lasting success.

The TQ Prioritize Color In Detail...

When you PRIORITIZE all your actions, you'll stay focused on the most important and rewarding goals. You achieve maximum productivity by making the right choices. The goals that are both important and rewarding deserve to be focused on first.

The Ultimate Choice: Urgent or Important...

A lot of time and energy is wasted when you focus on things that really don't matter simply because they're more urgent, leaving what's most dear unattended. The key is to know exactly what you want and which role is most important to you at any point in time. Since your values, vision and mission ultimately determine the priority for each of your goals, ranking competing choices becomes natural. How?

Some goals are more important than others...

Simply compare your core values to each goal you're trying to resolve. If Goal 1 contains more key values than Goal 2 at a given point in time, it must, by definition be more important than Goal 2. The point is that your values must always be the final criteria for what's more important than something else.

While this may sound simplistic, it works. In fact, the list of values you created when drafting your mission statement is the most important list you can carry, because it ensures that you'll always choose between what matters most and what doesn't.

CHOOSING is what it means to prioritize! When you make a conscious decision that some goals are more important than others (i.e., contain more of your core values), you automatically begin to focus on those that are both the most important and rewarding. Only after you've ranked your visions and goals in order of importance can you determine exactly which action plan and related tasks will get most of your time and attention today.

Prioritizing Instantly Increases Productivity...

Once you've identified what's most important at the moment, simply select the No. 1 item within that choice that will have the highest payoff for your efforts. When you determine in advance where the greatest reward will be for the time you spend, you are prioritizing your tasks, not on the urgency of the day, but on what will profoundly help you achieve your most valuable goals. By focusing on priority No. 1 first, you control the course and events of your day and you will automatically become more productive, completing more high-payoff A's, and fewer B's and C's.

Is your Prioritize Color causing you problems?

You can tell when...

• What's most important on your list always takes a back seat to what's most urgent.
• You spend time only on what is the easiest or most pressing, regardless of its value.
• You are forever running at full throttle, but your rewards never match your efforts.
• You are constantly frustrated and feeling guilty because there's always something else you should be doing.
• You believe there will never be enough time for what you want to do, because there's always something more urgent.

However, when your Prioritize color is strong and vibrant...

• You understand that what's most important should always come first, and therefore, you always focus on what's most important right now.
• Your efforts are highly rewarding because you invest your time on those activities with the highest payoff.
• You are always on purpose and enjoying the moment, because you've determined in advance that this is exactly what you should be doing, right now.
• You believe that what's most important should never be sacrificed for what's merely urgent.

Here's the Bottom Line...

Awareness of living what's most important is critical to getting the results you want. If you've never decided what's MOST important, you're endlessly chasing after things that SIMPLY DON'T MATTER.

Permit your Prioritize Color to hold you back, and you will struggle with the heartbreak of failed expectations. Improve it and you will succeed brilliantly.
