Time management is always a problem for me - I have to have what I call set-ways form task to task - especially if they include thinking... I came across this article today by Beth Rose http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-34952681,
rose has reported that Beyonce puts it down to self sacrifice and hard work.
However I liked Stacie Powells' advice: 'Compartmentalise: If you're going to be doing something do that and don't think of the million other tasks you've got to do that day.'
Thanks for sharing, Paula. This really resonates with me. I have to really force myself to compartmentalize though! Especially with our oversaturation of information, there are so many things that catch my attention and then I go off on a tangent ... (kid in the candy store alert) :D
ReplyDeleteWell - over dinner tonight when I mentioned my blog - a young professional did pint out that Beyonce had a team of people helping her - and that made me feel a bit better... compartmentalising and clocking in the time - both are things I wish I were better at doing.
ReplyDeleteVery true, I think we all wish we had Beyonce's team :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis resonates with me as well - I feel delegating several tasks does help me and I am currently trying out dedicating different 'hats' I have on to different days.. hopefully this will bring me some more clarity and avoids distractions when working on all different tasks.
