Time Management Pitfall #2 - Using Your Calendar For Appointments (only)
Do you ever say you want to do something and then not follow through? Yeah, right - who doesn't do that sometimes. As you might imagine, it's a recurring theme when I coach clients. Usually, there are one of two things going on (and often both):
1. You haven't committed enough space in your calendar to accomplish the task. The simple fix for this is to estimate from 25% to 300% more time than you think you need and schedule it for specific times/days.
2. You have some (often unrecognized) resist… Continue

A NOTE FROM THE PROCRASTIVITY NICHEPERT
Would you believe, my dear readers, that the day after I wrote about my brother's death I received a call from my cousin that my uncle had passed away? You know how they say things come in threes? Well, that was my third, and hopefully last, death in the family for a very long time. My uncle was elderly, and I wasn't that close to him, but it was still sad. Mainly, though my concern was for my mom, who was again out in California. I didn't want her to bre… Continue

What Does Your 2009 Look Like?
As I write this there are only 29 days left of the year. How has your year gone? Are you happy with how things have been going and with the direction and pace for the balance of the year and for 2009?
This is the time of year to spend just an hour or two (or half a day or more, if you have that much available - most of us don't, though) thinking about what you want your life to look like next year, perhaps even starting with a longer range plan. What changes do you want to make in your career… Continue

Two Terriers, Two Henrys, and Two Heathers - The Amazing Utility of Misunderstandings
What an incredibly serendipitous synchroncity of experience I had yesterday - I'm still processing it. Within the span of a few minutes I experienced a set of three misunderstandings, which turned out to provide exactly what I needed to solve a puzzle that led to the rescue of my neighbor's two dogs, all within an remarkably short period of time - about 35 minutes.
Here's what happened: I was out walking my dogs when a neighbor pulled up in his car [btw, names have been changed to protect the gu… Continue

What Elections Have To Do With Procrastination Abdication
It's Election Day in the U.S. as I write this, and it also marks the first time I've ever run for a "government position", as a supervisor on my little town's board, sort of like a town council. This is the height of my political ambitions - I never would have thought I'd even be a "candidate" in a public election. Speaking of candidates, if you live in the U.S., please make the time to vote. My opinion is if you don't vote, you've abdicated your right to complain about the political situation.… Continue

One More Time
I got the proof for Killer Career, and wouldn't you know it, I just had to find stuff that I wanted to fix. It'll cost me a bit more, but it's worth it not to be bugged about stuff I know is wrong. Okay, it's just little stuff, but little stuff sometimes means a lot.
So, a little more delay, a little more money, but hopefully all will end well. That's what matters.
It's no fun being a picky person. (G)
