7 Tips By Tristan Ahumada On How To Manage Your Day To Be More Productive

Have you ever felt like there aren’t enough working hours in a day for you? That happens with most people across every industry who occasionally struggle with productivity. Therefore, time management and handling your day are essential, especially for realtors’ success.

Tristan Ahumada, the founder of Lab Coat Agents and A Brilliant Tribe, values how you manage your time in what he calls ‘the evening routine.’ “Many people focus on the morning routine but forget about the evening routine, which is key to getting started the next day. ‘The evening routine’ is a simple process that begins with preparing ahead of time,” says Tristan.

Why You Need To ‘PREPARE’

Tristan has created an acronym dubbed ‘PREPARE,’ which defines the ‘must do’ in managing your day effectively.

1. Planning For The Next Day

The first ‘P’ in the acronym stands for, planning for the next day. Why should you plan for the next day? Research has shown that one of the most common causes of insomnia is when you have your head full of racing thoughts. Therefore if you don’t prepare for the activities you are to undertake earlier, you are likely to have worries and be stressed. Earlier preparations will set you up for more profound relaxation, better sleep, and relieve you of anxiety. 

2. Reviewing

You need to review what happened today to make sure nothing was missing. This step is the best way to start working on your productivity. In reviewing your daily activities, find out what you have done that can be changed and how you would change it. Also, are there things you did not have to do but spent considerate time doing them? Or are there certain things that you may have missed out on because of the choices of your actions?

3. Exercise In The Evening

Did you know that motion creates emotion? Therefore, a short exercise for you is okay for your business success. According to Tristan, evening exercises can improve your emotions,  memory, mental health, and energy levels and make you feel happier overall. Additionally, exercises can improve mood and cognitive function, reduce fatigue, and increase alertness.

4. Practice Gratitude

The benefits of practicing gratitude as a realtor are nearly endless. The truth is that individuals who practice gratitude by taking time to reflect upon the things they are thankful for always experience more positive emotions. Additionally, they feel more alive, express more compassion, sleep better, and have more robust immune systems.

5. Affirmations

Affirmation refers to the practice of self-empowerment and positive thinking- fostering a belief that a positive mindset supported by affirmations will achieve growth and success. According to Tristan, affirmations will evoke empowering beliefs about who you are and promote a vision of your business when you face challenging times.

6. Reflection

Reflection is another tip that can help you manage your day well. It can help you assess the activities and patterns of your day to see how your habits and actions contribute to your overall well-being, happiness, and success. Reflection will help you create a course of action.

7. Embracing The Night

Embracing the night will give you enough time to start the day more soberly.

Tristan says that this process can take as little as 11 minutes to much longer. The idea is to transition into the evening and be present, knowing you’ve done enough for the day by preparing your mind for the next day.
