In this week’s video, Robb Z challenges the common adage “some days you’re the hammer, some days you’re the nail,” to illustrate how a “Check The Box” mindset actually gets nothing done. https://lnkd.in/gP-FhicN For years, professionals have used “Get Stuff Done” mode, always aiming to be the hammer—efficient, unstoppable, and on the attack. But, what if this single-pointed focus on our tasks is actually what’s holding us back? Rather than focusing on checking boxes and pushing through tasks, we can shift our focus to reconnecting with our purpose, core values, and vision for what is truly important in our lives. It’s about showing up authentically every day, without the pressure of being either the hammer or the nail. And THAT is what leads to getting the results you are aiming for faster and with WAY less effort.

This week, Robb Z takes us on a deeper dive into our Time Management curriculum, as he describes approaching time management like a game of Skee-Ball. https://lnkd.in/gGYcx8Fh Anyone that’s been in our world for a while knows that time management doesn’t really exist. Time can’t be managed because time can’t be fired. However, there are some strategies you can be implementing to be sure you are maximizing your focus, and maximizing your prioritization, in order to get more done in the same amount of time, with little to no additional effort on your part. Just like a game of Skee-Ball, where you can decide where you want to place the ball for maximum return on your efforts (read: more tickets), the same approach can be taken with Red Time in order to “maximize your return” on the time and efforts you put in.

In this week’s video, Robb shares a counterintuitive piece of advice as the end of 2024 approaches: Stop focusing solely on the finish line! https://lnkd.in/gpU599iT This time of year, it is quite common for most sales professionals to be experiencing the pressure to meet year-end deadlines and incentives.

To avoid this, a more pro-active perspective is required. Shifting our focus to developing lasting habits that will keep our sales pipeline full and ensure a smooth transition into the new year, we set ourselves up to finish strong AND maintain momentum into 2025.

This one lesson, when implemented and followed, actually resulted in a $25,000 check getting written to Lee. That’s about a half million dollars in today’s money.
