Coaching Tip #291

January 31st, 2007 Comments off

We don’t ‘use’ time we ‘spend’ it.

As Wayne Dyer says, “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” Think of time as something that you spend and invest, rather than use. You design your life by the choices you make in the moments. Live aware and choose how you spend your time. You are allocated the same hours as everyone else, so time can never be your excuse.

Identifying our life areas

January 31st, 2007 Comments off

When our focus is not on what is important in our lives it’s on what isn’t important.
Modern day distractions give us plenty of nonsense to occupy ourselves with – mindless net surfing, playing with our mobile phones, reading junk magazines or newspapers, watching television, choosing to tidy our desk or engaging in other distraction activity. Most wasted time is lost on junk activity. Most people who complain they don’t have time to do the things they say they want to do actually do have the time – they just fritter it away elsewhere and regret it later.
Life areas provide you with a clear, personal framework in which to operate and give effective direction to your time planning. Time spent doing things that are in keeping with your deepest values and priorities is time you will never regret.
If you looked at your life areas each morning and chose an activity – or two – from each that would move you forward in even a small way then by the end of one year you would have carried out hundreds of actions many of which you might otherwise not have got round to doing.
Recall from our discussion on failure and success that small, ongoing actions in the right direction lead to ultimate success in life.
Faced with an hour in which you have little to do then, instead of switching on the tv or finding some life-or-death cleaning task you just have to do in the kitchen you could instead look at your list, pick an area, and ask: ‘What thing – however small – could I do right now to progress in this area?’ It might be a call, or the writing of a plan, or the reading of something or some research or any simple task.
Knowing what is important in your life is the first step to ensuring you do what’s important in your life.
So. What are your life areas?
