To choose your daily actions more effectively, you need to know what is expected of you. If you created a list of the top 10 objectives of your job and you asked your boss to do the same, do you think the lists would match? (somehow, I don’t think so!)
Often people struggle with prioritizing their task list. But that confusion is not necessary. Clarity of action comes when you know your larger goals and objectives and make those happen first.
Action – If you haven’t got an agreed list of job objectives with your boss, that is the first place to start. Then you can use the list as the basis upon which you make your daily action choices. Make sure that you check in with your boss regularly to ensure that everything is working the way it’s supposed to.
Set your daily actions in the framework of the larger objectives for you and your organization and you will never not know what to do next.
