  • Get your Personal Bearings
    • Become aware of how you are spending/wasting your life
  • Create a stop doing list
    • I read came across an article by Daniel LaPorte that talks about creating a stop doing list.  You end up gaining more time because you’re no longer doing the things that waste time.  This action item makes a lot of sense.  Why not stop doing things that waste your time.  To see the article by Danielle LaPorte » Read more: 6 things to do in 2010

The internet is not always there when you need it, don’t rely on it

December 20th, 2009

We live busy lives.  Some of us have busier lives than others.  We often make appointments days, weeks, or even months in advance.  When recording an appointment, we write down the person’s name, reason for meeting, location of the meeting, in addition to the date and time.  If you’re like me, you have the name, time, and reason written down on a calendar. Many of us expect to retrieve the driving directions on the day of travel.  This practice of scheduling and Just In Time trip planning sounds perfectly reasonable to most people.  That is until you discover the interenet is NOT available when you need it most. I had this experience today.

Google Calendar saved my Farm

December 17th, 2009

The other day I wrote a post titled “Google Calendar does SMS Reminders.”  I was excited about setting up events and letting Google Calendar remind you via text message at predetermined times before the event occurs.  I really love the fact that you can setup several reminders before the event occurs.  I’m already using it to remind me of appointments, but I discovered an unusual application for this tool. » Read more: Google Calendar saved my Farm

It only takes 5 minutes

Just 5 more minutes.  I hear that same old phrase being used over and over again.  It’s mostly said when someone wants to finish up something before rushing off to do something else.  Sometimes these words have been heard from my own mouth.  Do you have 5 minutes to spare?  Whether you’re unemployed, underemployed or employed everybody has at least 5 minutes to spare.  I think 5 minutes can change somebody’s life.  » Read more: It only takes 5 minutes

15 ways to make time for others

October 20th, 2009

I don’t have enough time is something I hear people say all the time.  It’s not really the truth. You need to really sit down and listen to what you’re saying to others. The message you’re sending is I won’t make the time.
