Youtube Video: Create a Checklist! | FVA Business Consultancy Video Duration: 3:24 Minutes Link: ​https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3uiowxn1rY&t=80s GRACE​: Create a checklist. Hi there, my name is Grace and I am the co-founder, owner and creator of the Filipino Virtual Assistance and allow me to encourage you to start creating a checklist. Many of us don't know that a lot of successful business owners and Enterprises follow a certain checklist in order to resolve some operations and systems with effectivity, efficiency, and excellence. Like for example, our favorite fast food on how to cook french fries or how to make the spaghetti or cook our chicken. We just enjoy them but we don't know that in order to make it consistently effective and efficient when it comes to taste and quality, it needs to follow a checklist. How much more when as you know, the freelancer and those who work from home are wanting to be successful and efficient and effective as well when it comes to our outputs. We need to write our checklist, our to-do lists, our schedules, our goals, our desires, our savings, everything that we want to see, be achieved into a checklist. Maybe our schedule for the day or schedule for the week or for the month or for the year even, it may be our menu or prayers, our goals, our desires, and maybe our goals when it comes to clients, the training to attend, the podcast that we need to listen, our finances, our weight loss goals. Whatever it may be, it needs to be tracked. We need to be accountable that’s why a checklist is very much needed. Like for example, I have here, you know, a small prayer book and I list all of the things that I pray all the time in this book. I have here my planner and of my day, week, and month is all here. I list them all here. I also have this notebook in order to, you know, write all my meditations, revelations, you know, the things that I have in my heart. And we also have this, even have an online spreadsheet as well when it comes to our finances. So these are all ‘Checklists’ or notebooks or planners that would detail all of the things that we want to accomplish or our goals and empower us to be effective and efficient. Downstairs we also have some menu for the week. Down here, you can see my office, I have my schedule for the whole year. So creating a checklist and writing it all down should be our number 1 focus when it comes to waking up and before we go to sleep at night we need to create our to-do list or the success list. You know, just writing what are the things that we were able to accomplish. Whatever it may be, we need to create a checklist in order to make us accountable that we’re able to track, we were able to monitor and evaluate later on so we know if we need to adjust, we know if we need to improve something to walk in a level of success. So this is it for our Monday Motivation this week. I hope that this will empower you throughout the year and not just this year but throughout your freelancing career and all aspects of your lives. Start creating a checklist today. That would be all for now. Thank you so much and God Bless you all.
