Which of These Serial Offenders Eat Into Your Working Day?
As you will know by now, we are very busy at the moment working on a series of time management webinars and courses. That said, as we are so practised at the time management techniques we will soon be sharing during our time management course, launching 10th July, we have found the time to give you another taster of what is to come. This time, we are looking at time thieves – those little tasks that demolish chunks of your valuable time each and every day.
There are numerous time thieves standing in the way of all of us, doing their best to take up the time that we need to spend on important and urgent tasks. In fact, most of them are so common that you might not even realise that they are popping up time and time again. The following list includes the most frequent offenders; you may be surprised by how many you recognise!
- Indecision
- Taking on too much
- Trying to do too much at once
- Refusing to delegate
- Wanting everything to be perfect
- Losing important telephone numbers or email addresses
- Poor organisation
- Untidiness
- Day dreaming
- Meetings
- Checking email too often
- Telephone calls
- Water cooler moments
- Waiting for people who are later than expected
- Not knowing when to say “no”
- Just one more minute on social media…
We are quite willing to bet that you recognised at least a couple of those in your behaviour. Of course, now that we have identified the time thieves, the next step is defeating them.
