I am successful. I want to be more successful. I want to continue my success. I imagine you must too since you are on my website and reading my evangelisms. On a daily basis, I work to get things done effectively - and very often I do a VERY good job. There are time though where Time Management in my world is synonymous with Power Struggle. I wish to deter that thought to eternity...
One essential tool to being successful is Time Management. Currently I am battling (in my mind) to what task (if any) deserves the most attention. Maybe you can relate?
Hmmm, if the situation was mine, how do I decide? Lets say they are equally important, now the task delves into my subconscious and the battle begins. I find myself with four choices:
- Write the blog post now, go to office supply store in the morning.
- Go to office supply store now, write post in the morning.
- Do something else completely unrelated.
- Do whatever I have to to stay out of trouble with the 'boss' - if 'the boss' is me: go home, relax and watch tv.
If you have not yelled Woo-Ha! in a while, I suggest you visit this site more, and also check out www.mindtools.com, specifically this page: Learn Time Management - Learn how to manage your workload and maximize your effectiveness., and began reading.
I have found it to be very inspiring with a lot of positive, helpful suggestions to poise me for continued and greater success - and help me battle my subconscious into submission... because I want to flip the current during my self-defeating ways! Because I am not always self-defeating.. No, I am not - it is the time which I am that I want to turn that locomotive around.
