The late Simon Jordan was a coach, mentor, branding, and design consultant and founder of Simon Jordan Marketing. He worked with coaches and consultants internationally to help them to build profitable and powerful brands that make a difference in the world.
We lost Simon just before Christmas 2021. It was a shock as he was always so lively and full of energy. About ten years ago Simon lived with us for a few weeks between houses. We were close and I miss him loads. It was lovely to hear his voice again though when I listened back. This is the first show I did with him; there was another closer to his death that you can listen to here.
Google Calendar, Timetrade, Pinterest and Inspirational Tips from Simon Jordan of SimonJordan.com
Listen Below and Here’s What We Recommended:
Tools & Apps
- Simon uses his Get More Done Today system to stay organised and get stuff done. It’s a day planner, with the planning completed the night before, free to download.
- Google Calendar – for diary scheduling and planning
- Google Translate – as he lives in France and is learning the language!
- TimeTrade – to allow people to schedule calls and meetings automatically into his diary
- Simon uses his iPhone extensively to run his business – even from the side of the lake!
- Pinterest – to search for inspiration or motivation to find ideas and people to connect with
Tips
- Charity – Silver Line – Simon regularly volunteers through this charity, speaking with lonely people
- Simon tries to exercise most mornings, outside. “Gets the blood pumping and it’s my time”
- He recommends no tech for the last hour before bed
- Simon eats a good quality clean diet and is vegan
- “I only work four days a week now, every Wednesday is family time because the kids’ school is closed on a Wednesday. April and I down tools and we spend the day. It’s good, because you’re still more productive. You’re just as productive on the other days, in fact you’re probably more productive because you know you’ve only got four days, so it’s good. When I started using this system, I think I got more done in three hours focused work than I did in two days. It’s phenomenal how much time you waste, especially on social media.
- When it’s all ‘going wrong’ “I have to think, in a day’s time, a week’s time, will it really matter? No, not really. What can you do? If you can’t fix it right now, don’t give it too much energy”.
- “Gratitude is the language of the truly rich. When you come from that place, energy flows.”
- “I only check my emails at 10 o’clock in the morning and at 4 o’clock in the afternoon.”
- Time blocking is key in managing Simon’s diary, scheduling blocks of time in for the week in advance, like for coaching or other projects
- “I love the line that Jim Rohn wrote, don’t wish it was easier, wish that you were better’.
- “I love the line, true success is knowing that someone else has breathed more easily because you’ve been there.”
