This was more of a review than anything for me, but it was a great review.
Taking control of your time:
There are certain obstacles in taking control of ones time. Here are some:
- Control, be sure to over budget for time on a task, show up on time for meetings & such.
- Procrastination, Complete it now !!!! 95% of people procrastinate, 15% to 20% are chronic.
- Immediacy, Be careful with this one, 40% of the workforce struggles with this one. It can be self defeating, makes you tired & allows for more mistakes. You need to prioritize & pace youself.
- Insecurity, it is based on fear of not completing, or of what admin, or others will think. A messy desk is a sign of this, as it shows that a person is looking to “look” busy. Organizing ones desk, & making piles & a master list is best. I do this well now.
A to do list is a good start to getting organized. I do this very well now, so I will not list what I will be doing, as I do it very well now, thru prioritizing, & updating lists one a week or more if needed.
