Business is interesting. One day, you can find that you’re doing really well, and you’re super happy with how things are going. But then, in five minutes flat, that can change. You could lose a client, you could lose sales, you could miss an opportunity, you could experience a technical fault. And all of these things tend to happen instantly, and something that took just a few minutes then sets the tone of the business. However, we’re going to flip this idea from something negative to something position. Because just like bad things can happen in five minutes flat, you could also really get your business together by just giving yourself five minutes to do it. There are so many businesses processes that you could get in line this way, but here are five to get you started…

1. Make The Decision To Delegate

The first idea, is to make the decision to delegate. Now this is something that takes you literally two second to do. You just make that decision to do it. While the actual delegation process may take you a lot longer to do, because you’ve got a lot of thought to go into things. However, the second that you decide that you do this, makes you feel so amazing because you’re then moving your business in the right direction.

2. Shut Down Your Distractions

So next, another thing that you can do in five minutes flat to get your business together, is to shut down your distractions. Because we all know that we get distracted when we should be working. Are you someone that always reads the news to scrolls through Facebook when you should be working? Then shut it down. Use an internet blocker and just focus on your work.

3. Book An Appointment

Then, you may want to pick up the phone and book an appointment. This could be something that you’ve been wanting to do for a long time. So maybe you know to book an appointment with your accountant or a surface pro repair appointment to get it fixed. If you know that you’re putting this off, spend those five minutes booking it in, and you’ve then move things forward.

4. Visualize

Another thing you can do in just a few minutes is to visualize. If you can sit there for a short while and think about what you want for your business, it can make you feel motivated and then give you ideas to act on. So again, five minutes then helps you to make the business grow.

5. Execute

And lastly, you may even want to take five minutes to just execute on something – anything. Because a lot of the time, when it comes to business, you may find that you think about all of the things that you want to do. You’re a great planner but then you may find that lots of things then turn out to stay in your mind. So when you want to get your business together in just five minutes, actually starting a task instantly will transform things for you.
