Effective Project Management 101: Achieve a 4-Hour Work Week

Is the 4 Hour-Work Week plausible?

In the most straightforward answer- YES! But then, how? Achieving a four-hour work week sounds like a reach, but it is not. There is a famous concept that emphasizes that it is in the way you effectively manage your time. It also lies in how well you manage your projects meritoriously. So let’s dig in deeper to learn how to attain a four-hour work week!

Automation

Suppose a task can be managed by your computer and technology, then better to go down that road. Automate tasks whenever possible to save you energy and time. For example, meeting appointments can now be linked to your calendar and send invites to people involved. This can only take you thirty seconds of clicking and tapping.  You can also automate your email replies for enquiries and the like. You can check the pipeline of your projects automatically as well. There are a hundred thousand applications to choose from online, both free and paid subscription. You may filter the ones that suit your business needs better.

Delegate

Delegate when needed. You may hire a Project Manager who has the right skill set to match your business needs. The PM can look after your projects, answer emails on your behalf, do administrative work, so you do not have to worry about that, and focus on the core need of your project or business. Some agencies offer Project Management services at an hourly rate if you just need the PM for a couple of hours a day, or you can also opt for a long-term contract if you find it necessary.

Make a NOT to-do list

This is quite a turn away from the typical To-Do list. When you create a NOT to-do list, you can manage the things that you can easily delegate and outsource. By doing so, you can save yourself a lot of time so you can only focus on the things that really do affect your business. Keeping this in mind, you may actually achieve a four-hour work week freeing yourself to do other things that bring you happiness and balance.
