When doing something others might need to know how to do, or when providing services which require frequently answering the same type of questions, there is a simple way to make your life easier and not as redundant. In order to avoid repetitiveness and yet make it easier to both provide and receive the right information, this week Done! is about how to be ahead of yourself and answer questions before they're even asked.

Having the ambition to become more structured in any way is great. But we must be careful so that we do not trip over our present structures and ways of working when we make attempts to become more organized. Done! helps you to smoothly pass one of these traps without getting caught and failing your attempt to become more organized.

Not everything can be done everywhere. Some tasks require a certain context to be done, or a certain material that you keep in one special location, or you need to visit a certain store to buy that one particular thing. This thought also extends to our work and the results of our efforts. Some things are easier to do in one location, or context, and some in another. This week, Done! provides you with suggestions of how you can change or improve the contexts you work in and hence improve your work and results.

Brainstorming, pondering, contemplating, meditating, reflecting... There are many ways to attain insights and to allow for new ideas to emerge into conscious form. But if we do not make the thoughts and ideas into something tangible, something concrete, it suddenly becomes much more difficult to realize our visions and dreams. Therefore, this week Done! provides you with some guidance in how to go from insight to action!

Location-based tasks and activities can be difficult to remember. Perhaps it concerns a location you do not find yourself in too often and to then remember doing that one thing you thought of ages ago, can be tricky. But when you do, it always feel extra good if you remembered to do what you wanted or needed to do while being in a location you aren't normally in. There are a few tricks to remembering location-specific tasks or activities and this week's Done! provides you with three suggestions to how to remember these particular tasks easier.

Everyone feels reluctance towards something. Perhaps it's making that phone-call to a new client, telling your boss something important, or having what you anticipate will be an uncomfortable conversation with your spouse. But as it turns out, more often than not, our anticipated fear was just that - something we believed would occur, but which might not at all be an accurate reflection of reality. The ability to take the bull by its horns is important in a number of situations, so Done! will this week provide you with a very efficient and hands-on method to help you "call your bluff" and see that more often than not, there is no reason to fear anything.

How you define something can make a world of difference. The same goes for our structure. Making distinctions in the right way can change the way we work, how we prioritize and hence also what we achieve. This week Done! helps you differentiate between doing and structuring, and realize the consequences of doing so.

Some tasks are simply just boring. Or difficult to get started with for other reasons. And no matter what you try, you feel reluctant towards taking time to sit with it and just do it even though you know it is due soon. But there are ways to get started with even the most tedious tasks. This week's Done promotes a more embracing method to getting started doing something you feel resistance and reluctance towards.
