Perfecting Your Precrastination
You probably noticed that I used the word "Precrastination" in the title of this column. No, I didn't misspell this word although I did create it. The word "procrastination" means "to put off till tomorrow." Since tomorrow truly never comes, that which is put off never gets done. Can you relate? The word "Precrastination" means "to do before tomorrow." Wow! What a novel idea! And that is the premise of this column.
Some Background: An interesting thing happens when a person finally decides to get their act together. It may be that a) the stress gets too much to handle; b) the workload becomes unbearable; or c) that things are just not getting done and the company is suffering (along with the person responsible.)
One of the first things I hear as a coach is that the complaining parties just don't have enough time to do all that they need to do. Invariable the topic of time management comes up which is followed by lots of moans and groans (from my clients) about not being able to make up a schedule much less stick to one.
Most would agree that when it comes to time management, schedules are a fine thing to have and stick to. The effective professional however finds that there are more important things to focus on that have greater impact if done honestly and thoroughly. Those things are what this ezine covers this time around.
