At the beginning of February we at Integrum ran into a busy couple of weeks, and I felt a little out of gear when it came to getting stuff done. We returned to AZ from client meetings in California late on a Tuesday night and had less than 5 hours to sleep before returning on Wednesday. Both Jade and I came in ready to rock on Wednesday and energized by our client meetings so I declared the day “Productivity Wednesday” and started tracking how many to-do’s came off my list.

12 to-do’s later I called it a successful day. The next week I crossed off 16 things.

Now of course I’m aiming for this kind of production everyday, but having a stated target and tweeting about it gives me some level of accountability. It gives me one day a week where I know that I’m turning off tweetdeck, putting my shoulder to the wheel, and cranking out to-dos. Not only that but the concept is spreading – I’m starting to see some twitter traffic with the tag.

So how do you get play? Tweet on wednesday with a goal, and #productivitywednesday as your hash tag. As you get things done, tweet again – get some encouragement – give some to others – and watch the To-Do List check boxes get filled up.

Productivity Wednesday starts in less than 9 hours – are you ready?
