Today is Wednesday, so this post is on outstanding performance. Effective time management is a key to outstanding performance. That’s why I subscribe to Dave Navarro’s time management newsletter. Dave is a time management and productivity coach who teaches no-nonsense, easy to implement ways to free up more time for your business and your life. You can get his free “More Time” kit at www.your30hourday.com. I like what Dave has to say because of his common sense approach to time management. Yesterday, his weekly newsletter was called Close Your Browsers, Already. Dave has graciously allowed me to post it in its entirety here.
