Power Session 10: Accountability–
Check in on Time Blocking
You
are
here!
10-1
Get Your Head in the Game
Time
Blocking
The decision to
block out time
on your calendar
ever y day for lead
generation.
Congratulations! You’ve made it to mile marker 10 and you are
purposefully focusing on new habits—the Daily 10/4—that will
reward you with huge success.
Ask yourself this: “Have I been as disciplined with my Daily 10/4
as I could be?” If the answer is “no,” there are systems to help. One
is time blocking and the other is the 4-1-1 (which will be the topic
of Power Session 13).
Time blocking is a mental decision to reserve time in your
calendar every day for lead generation—your Daily 10/4.
T
ony DiCello, director of KW MAPS
Coaching, gives an example about an
agent he coached. “This guy actually
cut out 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on his calendar!
It’s his reminder that he can never schedule
anything but lead generation during this time.”
Tony continues, “Distractions are your choice.
If someone asks, ‘Do you have a minute?’ you say, ‘Not now.’ Put
your foot down on the accelerator and never let up.”
TRUTH
It takes 2–4 hours
of focused effor t to
accomplish anything
that’s wor thwhile.
Time blocking keeps you focused, free of distractions, and doing
what you’ve committed to. Even Gary Keller admits it’s tough.
“It’s easy to say, ‘I’m going to time block and lead generate. Wow!
That’s simple, that’s all I’m going to do.’ Unfortunately, it’s easy to
get distracted with helping others, dealing with problems, working
with clients, etc.”
Most people need help because it’s not easy to remain focused
on one thing on a regular basis. The structured approach to lead
generation is not necessarily fun, and appears to take you away
from the freedom and fun of running your own business.
Preparation will help. It takes 2–4 hours of focused effort to
accomplish anything that’s worthwhile. It’s important for the
people around you to understand what you’re doing and to help
you in your efforts. That is, to not interrupt you or allow others to
interrupt you.
The reward from daily and focused time-blocked lead generation is
huge! And you will have more rewarding and satisfying interaction
after your lead generation, with no regrets.
The only thing between everything you want out of this career and
where you are today is getting control of a few hours during your
day. It doesn’t have to change your world, yet it will change your
world!

4. Maximize Your Productivity
Becoming truly productive is a matter of generating productivity
habits—habits that you routinely do every day. And it begins
as a deliberate decision. You shape the routines that create your
habits—the habits that will lead you to your goals. You make the
choice.
Just Say “No”
Begin by generating a “Not to Do List” for all those tasks that
would serve only to consume your time. Then don’t do them!
Determine what can be handled more effectively with technology
and what you can delegate.
In our people-pleasing industry, it is often difficult to say “no” to
people. However, without a plan for saying “no,” you may very
well end up overworked, overstressed, and out of time.
The Four Steps to “No”
1. Clarify by asking questions. Make sure you understand the
request.
2. If you need to say “no,” do so. You can be polite and firm
simultaneously.
3. Remember that “no” is a complete sentence. You do not
have to justify your reasons for saying “no.”
4. Suggest viable alternative resources for the person
requesting your time.
Delegate When You Can
Each time you begin a new task, ask yourself, “Could someone else
do this?” If your answer is “yes,” pass it off to that person. Your
job is to develop your skill of delegation.
10-8
5. Time Block
for Lead Generation
Time blocking is a method of organizing your day and focusing on
the dollar-productive activities that matter most. It is a habit that
allows you to schedule appointments with yourself to effectively
manage your day. Some tips to keep in mind as you develop this
habit are:
• Don’t indiscriminately fill up your calendar with events.
Remember that you are in “business,” not “busyness”!
• Don’t try to time block every minute of your day or week.
• Block for the most important tasks—the dollar-productive
activities of lead generation!
• Erase and replace. There will be times when a true
emergency arises during one of your time blocks. You will
obviously need to respond. The key is to replace the time.
If you use an hour to deal with the emergency, immediately
replace that hour by blocking another hour on your
calendar to return to your task.
STOP
and DO
Time Block for Lead Generation
1. Write down exactly what days of the week and what hours you will do
your lead generation.
Days of the week (e.g., Mon. – Fri.): ______________________________
Hours (e.g., 9:00 – Noon): ______________________________________
2. In your calendar or day planner—time block for lead generation every
day for up to one month.
3. Time block for home previewing—10 hours every week—for up to one
month.
Time: 2 minutes
10-9
Aim High
Get Focused! It’s Simpler Than You Think
In Power Session 5: Accountability – Check in on Your Goals and Big
Why, you learned about focus—the “little difference that makes
the big difference in our lives.” In The Millionaire Real Estate
Agent, Gary Keller presents five simple steps that will lead you to
great focus and open up a world of possibilities in your business
and your life.
The first two steps are as follows:
1. Create a personal plan and make the implementation
process your focus.
Follow a big plan that is built from a Big Model and make
the implementation process your focus. Aim high and don’t
allow your goals to be a ceiling to your achievement. If you
aim too low, you might sit back and stop trying once you
hit your goal. It’s better to aim high and allow yourself to
pause and celebrate your progress along the way.
Focus brings results. Stay focused on the process of
implementing the Daily 10/4.
2. Time block to get your focus.
Make sure the Daily 10/4 activities get done! If everyone
has the same amount of time, then success at a high level
isn’t about how much time you have, but rather how you
use that time.
Time blocking is a skill that absolutely must be learned,
practiced, and turned into a key productivity business
habit.
In upcoming Power Sessions on accountability, you’ll learn the
remaining three steps to getting focused:
3. Get accountability to keep your focus.
4. Make sure your environment supports your focus.
5. Keep your energy to maintain your focus.
10-10
Reward Yourself
How will you reward yourself this week? Remember that it can be
a small reward for completing your Daily 10/4 or a big reward for
a achieving a big milestone. Choose something meaningful that
will motivate you!

Remember your options to keep you
on the path of success. Besides your
Productivity Coach, KW MAPS Coaching
provides several programs to keep you
accountable to your goals. One followup program you’ll want to schedule as
soon as it shows up in your area is BOLD
Experience. It’s an intensive eight-week
program that will truly take your business
to new heights.
10-11
Choose a New Accountability
and Script Partner
Every week you will choose a different accountability and script
partner. Why? Because familiarity breeds acceptance. You don’t
want your accountability partner getting too comfortable with
any excuses you may have—they need to keep you accountable.
Consider someone you don’t know, or someone you highly respect—
someone who exhibits a high level of accountability themselves.
STOP
and DO
Select Accountability and Script Partners
1. Write the name of the person with whom you will meet weekly and to
whom you give permission to hold you accountable to your goals.
2. Write the name of a partner who will practice scripts with you on an
ongoing basis.

and at what time?
