Have you ever had somebody like come in to your life and just messed things up?
Well, watch closely as train you on how to stop your day from falling apart.
So, your day got messed up again?
How do you do this right?
How do you get your day to actually follow the plan that you had.
Well, there's some very important components here to be able to make your plan work out
all the way through the day.
So let's talk about really the components it takes to be able to create a great day.
So, let's look at the first one.
If you want something to work out throughout the day, you need to put that plan into writing.
And a person who just thinks about their day and just thinks about they wish they could
get done is going to have totally different experience as somebody who literally writes
this plan out and uses a calendar.
Like scheduling some time and scheduling when and how things are going to happen for the
day.
And you may not be a calendar type of person.
But it could be one of the reasons why things are not holding together.
That's why your days falling apart.
And I'm here to help you to keep your day from falling apart.
So, number 1 is step up to the next level of writing out the plan throughout the day.
And I know.
You're probably thinking, "I've tried that, Kirk.
And it always falls apart.
So, why even spend the time doing it?"
Well, maybe you don't know the rest of the steps.
So, first step is get it all written down in the order which you want to have happen
throughout that day.
Second part is to share that plan.
There are certain people on your life that tend to pull you off of your plan.
And those could be even your own spouse.
And/or your kids.
And it could also be you.
So, you share your plan with your family or you share your plan with the office.
So that they know what it is that your plan is.
Because that's a whole new level of a step there when they have an idea of what it is
that you're doing.
Now, consider this though.
There are people in this world who just don't live by a level of order.
Like sometimes they're the ones who are in chaos and you're the one who's living in order.
So, that's why step number 3 here is you know get to deal with others.
You know?
You're going to be organized, you can be dealing with people who are unorganized.
But if you have it in writing and you've shared the plan, it gives you the power to be able
to manage people who are living a life of chaos.
So, let's talk about that.
Living a life of chaos, these other people.
Those people get to learn from you that you're organized and that you have a plan.
And usually chaotic people have emergencies.
They forgot something, they're late.
They kind of burst in to the middle of your plans thinking that you should change your
plans because they live a life of chaos.
Kind of sound like teenagers, doesn't it?
If you have teenagers, you know exactly what I'm talking about where you have a plan for
the day and your teenager didn't plan and now they're...
They got all this emergencies happening.
"I forgot my homework.
I don't know where the car keys are.
Mom, dad, can you help me?"
Boy, they can sure interrupt the day, don't they?
But you see, this is the beautiful part.
You get to train the people around you about how your schedule works.
Now, I know, I'm a dad, I'm a husband and I'm also a business owner.
And I have a great team of people who works in the company with me.
But I got to be the one who teaches other people about how the calendar works and how
things are scheduled.
And how the plans are going to go.
And when you have kids or spouse or employees, they could interrupt your plan.
But you come from the mindset of "I'm going to write my plan.
I'm going to share my plan and I'm going to train others how the calendar works."
How the schedule works.
Now, I've had a team.
I've had employees now for about 13-14 years.
And I know that when I wake up in the morning, I'm going to have to hold the line with my
schedule.
I've got to hold the line because somewhere during the day, some chaotic person is going
to come along and try to interrupt my plan.
And sound like they trying to.
It's just that they are not living a life of being very organized.
So they're chaos is going to meet my order.
You know, their chaos is going to meet my order.
And so, when chaos meets my order, I can either crumble or I can hold the line.
I can hold strong to what I am doing so that I can teach them about how to get their life
in order.
Now, did you hear the word teach?
I didn't say prove.
I said teach.
So, raising 3 boys and as they been going through being teenagers...
You know, growing up to the teenage ranks.
Boy, they've tested my life.
They've tested my schedule.
They've tested my plans.
And I've had to learn how to say no.
Even though they have an emergency, it's like, "No, I'm on a schedule.
I'm on a plan.
I would help you if I had time but you're right in the moment of my schedule and you
get to figure this out on your own."
And so for me, what I've had to learn how to do is write it, share it, teach others
and hold the line.
And hold the line.
Other people who are not writing down their plans and not sharing them...
I don't think those people should be the ones who run the day.
I don't think those people should be the ones who run the calendar.
I don't think those people are to be the one who get away with messing up everybody else's
schedules.
So, I think it's time for you to like step up to the level of believing that you're more
organized than other people.
And when somebody else is not in the place of being organized, it's okay to teach them.
It's okay that they meet your calendar and your calendar doesn't change.
They can't alter what it is that you're doing.
Now, of course there's always emergencies that happen.
But the more you can follow your written plan, the more progress you're going to have.
And the better you're going to feel.
So, I just ... In the last couple of days here, I've had some of my team members who...
I had a plan and my team members knew the plan but they weren't following the plan.
So, what did I do when they interrupting my schedule and interrupting the things that
I was..
That I had planned.
So, what did I do?
I take the opportunity to teach them.
That because they didn't follow the plan, doesn't mean now that I have to follow off
my schedule.
And it kind of ruffled their feathers a little bit.
You know, kind of ruffled the mop.
Because they thought...
Well, I should adjust to be able to accommodate their chaos.
That's not how it works.
There's a little bit of mercy room in there but I am going to be someone that when people
meet my calendar and meet my schedule, they're going to get to learn how to be more organized
in their life.
But the way in which you're going to keep your day from falling apart and being able
to stop that from happening, is you honoring your planning and honoring your choices.
There will always be a person who will show up in your life that could wreck your plans.
It's just inevitable.
There are more people who live a life of chaos than the number of people who live a life
of order.
So the people who are living a life of order were kind of outnumbered with the chaos people.
But it doesn't mean that the chaos people get to run the show.
They're not the ones who get to decide how the day turns out.
We get to work with them.
We get to teach them.
We get to coach them.
We get to show them how to get their lives put in to place.
How they can learn how to be more thoughtful and more planning.
Because there's really not that many people that the night before, they really plan out
their next day.
There's not that many.
You think there are but there's not.
There's not.
And so, be a person of order.
Write out your plan, share it with the people who need to know your plan and make sure when
you share it, it's either digitally or it's printed and put in top of fridge.
Or it's on bulletin board at work.
Or however you're going to do it.
But you got to make sure everybody knows about it so that you can comeback to it and say,
"Hey, I did show you the calendar.
I did show you the plan.
I did show you the schedule."
And then come from the place of teaching.
Come from the place of teaching because you're going to get to teach people pretty much all
your life.
It never goes away.
There's always somebody there who's going to test and try your schedule.
But this is how you keep your schedule.
Be forgiving, be patient, be understanding and hold the line.
Don't let all your plans fall apart just because somebody who's living a life of chaos shows
up and expects you to drop everything.
There's more than one way to work things out but honor and respect the way that you planned
your schedule.
That what I showed you here, what we've just talked about is going to help you.
It's going to help you have more progress and get those things done that you've always
wanted to get done.
