Time Management

So it's been a while since i've posted... had a fullfilled weekend preparing for this week.
This week I started my Time Managment course and was I ever excited to.
I am the most unorganized person in the world. I like to think of myself as in control but i'm really all over the place. I need to learn organization and self-esteem somethings this class taught me.
One of the lines I will never forget, possibly because he drilled in our heads every 2 seconds... "Fish discovered Water Last"
This is all I heard for 2 days. Ok no not really. This is what I focused in on to try and discover the meaning.
I will take away a lot from this course and recommend it to everyone I know.
Greg Campeau, a great trainer, gave some valuable messages, like Its simple, it's not easy.
I am eager to go to work tomorrow and put my skills to use. Something I never thought of doing, creating a to do list before i leave work everyday so i come in and know what's on for today.
I found out my personality and why i'm on the payroll. he asked this quite a lot... "Why are you on the payroll?" I went home and thought for hours, why am I on the payroll? How valuable am I to my team.
Man If I could recommend a course to anyone this would be it. I haven't taken that many courses, but each I take, I learn a lot. I hope to look into more of his work. I think he does a leadership course as well and I think I could benefit from that as well. Let's try and put these tips to work tomorrow and see how that goes.
He also referred a bunch of books too that I will have to check out as well. One on self esteem for sure!

Chrissy, there are some suggestions in the couple of entries on that topic back in the blog, but lots of people love About a Boy by Nick Hornby.
