How it all started?
I worked as a manager in a recycling company in East London. My role fell somewhere in between sales marketing and human resources, and I reported to the company’s CEO.
I would meet with the CEO once a week regarding various tasks. Once the CEO asked me to sit down and said to me: “Tell me, when do you intend to finish tasks x, y, and z?” And I remember feeling embarrassed that I couldn’t accurately assess how long these tasks would take me to complete.
A few challenging days followed in which I considered how to manage my time for these tasks. As I didn’t find an answer, I returned to the CEO and asked him if he has a good solution on how to successfully manage my personal tasks and better assess how long these tasks would take me to complete. His response was clear and simple. He said to me: “Of course! You should use the time management technique Eisenhower Matrix.”
The Eisenhower Matrix states that tasks should be arranged in order of priority and importance. If a task is important and urgent, it should be completed immediately. If it’s important but not urgent, it should be put in the diary to be completed on a later date. All other task should be postponed or delegated to someone else.
For several days, I tried unsuccessfully to implement the matrix. The main reason it was difficult for me to implement this method was that I couldn’t visualize how to establish a connection between what I wanted to achieve in the short and long term and my day to day tasks.
This led me to start developing the Gold Model, which consists of three main components.
Vision
The vision answers the question – What purpose do I serve?
The idea is that once a vision is created, we focus on how we can help advance our field of practice. For example: A writer’s vision may be to empower whoever reads her book. This is essentially the reason she gets up in the morning.
Short and long term goals
As opposed to a vision, here we are trying to quantify what we would like to achieve in a specific field and to set a deadline.
For example, a salesman may set a long term goal of becoming a sales manager within five years from today at one of the largest companies in the country in the field of computers; his short term goal may be to surpass the monthly sales target by 20 percent and to be admitted to an MA program in Business Management within the next few months.
Activities
We can determine the activities for the coming week according to our vision and goals using a special method for arranging tasks. This method includes a rating system that allows us to see whether or not there is a strong connection between what we are doing and what we would like to achieve in the short and long term, in line with our vision.
