TIME FLIES, BUT YOU'RE THE PILOT

The Superhero in you!

Ever said, “...not enough hours in the day?”  “I'm so maxed out?” “Where has 2015 gone already?” One of the biggest issues we seem to face these days is time management.  Why do we have so much to do every day and most days are relentless?  Poor use of time affects every aspect of life, our relationships, work and study success and reduces leisure time.

I’m the first to admit to being stunned that Easter has just whizzed past, along with the first part of 2015.  So how’s your MakeItHappen in 2015 thus far?   Here are a few facts:

- Everyone gets the same twenty-four hours in a day.

- If you have competition, they have no more hours in a day than you.

- The richest person cannot buy even one more minute of time in a day!

- Only YOU can manage yourself and activities more effectively.

The media tells us we can have and do it all.  Some of us feel a great weight of expectation to get everything done perfectly. If you’re up at “Ridiculous O’Clock” everyday, loading the washing machine, preparing breakfast, answering emails, hash tagging, making beds, maybe wrestling children to school or activities, it’s no wonder you arrive at work, home or wherever frazzled, sweaty and feeling like it’s nearly bed time! 

If you drift off each night, worrying about how you are going to get everything done by tomorrow, maybe it’s time to find the superhero within you!  (Whilst Spiderman and Catwoman might have appeared to successfully juggle normal life with fighting bad guys and falling in love, they probably never did their own washing!)

Effective Time Management is a common barrier to a fulfilling lifestyle for many of our clients.  It’s all about behavioural change and learning how to spend more time acting instead of reacting.

My Plate Overfloweth

Good time management can be difficult because we simply have too much on our plates and it’s all sliding off, which is why we often feel overwhelmed. Quoting the words of Joyce Meyer, “If you’re constantly rushing, you’re doing too much”

If you feel like you are racing around but don’t achieve much, or you don’t say ‘no’ because you never want to disappoint anyone, this by no means equates to being ‘inadequate’ or ‘failing’ – quite the opposite, it means you are busy and possibly full of fantastic ideas. 

You may just need a little help in managing time effectively and learning to say “No, I just can’t do that” without experiencing guilt. Could it be that those admirable Superheros in your circles, have simply mastered the art assertiveness and practice saying “No -I can’t do that”.
