    "Time is the most valuable coin in your life. You, and you alone, will determine how that coin will be spent. Be careful that you don't let other people spend it for you"
    --John Dryden

    Success starts with your ability to get things done timely

    You've probably experienced having more things to do than you could possible get done in a day. You are not alone. Many people read and study time management, but does it really work? After all, who can 'manage time'? You can manage yourself and you can manage your projects so why is it called 'time management'? Let's spend a few minutes learning how you can do the right things, one at a time and have time left over to do what you enjoy most.

    Enhance your life with a new design to get remarkable results.

    Set goals

    Setting personal and business goals are a must if you want to experience the benefit of time management. Setting personal professional goals outline your intentions on what you plan to do and make it real to you.

    Goals are not results!

    Many people are afraid to set goals because they are afraid of what happens if they "fail" to achieve them. They believe that it affects negatively on their own self-image.

    Nothing could be further from the truth.

    One of the most positive aspects of setting personal professional goals is what not achieving a goal teaches you. If you don't achieve a goal there can be any number of reasons why - some of which are beyond your control. However examining why it was not achieved will yield valuable insights into your beliefs, attitudes and emotions.

    Goal setting and motivation

    You need to feel desire about your goal. Motivation is desire. Do something because you really want to. You can use all the best techniques for goal setting and planning, but if the desire is not there then:
  • You're less likely to achieve the goal
  • You feel a sense of emptiness about it if you do

    Write your goals down!

    Write your goals down (or draw, paint them etc). It helps to make them real where you can see them, rather than swirling about endlessly in your head, where they have no outlet. This will also help to keep you on track.

    Focus on the results you expect to gain

    Your job is to learn how to direct this power by consciously directing your focus to get the outcomes you want.

    First, you have to discover all the things you focus on that you do not want and I'm willing to bet there are quite a few - way more than you think. Then you have to get very clear about what you DO want. Then, you have to examine each of the things you want and be sure that they are not just something you do NOT want in disguise.

    This Week's Action Steps
    • Spend 10 minutes each day to set your goals for the day
    • Decide what results you want by the end of the day
    • Motivate yourself to get the urgent & important things done first
    • Write it all down….don't keep it in your head
    • At the end of the day, recap the results you accomplished
    • Remember - action does not equal results! Focus on results.
    Quote
    The great dividing line between success and failure can be expressed in five words; "I did not have time."
    Franklin Field
