In most situations, I want to move forward in action. A few weekends ago I had an amazing experience that powerfully drove home to me, once again, the value of patience, especially when it comes to... http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e16 http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e16 Tue, 31 May 2005 13:54:34 -0400 I made my goals for June and did my best to make them realistic. Many of us tend to expect we can achieve way more than we ever are actually able to. And then we ignore all that we did accomplish - usually, a great deal - and still feel bad. Crazy or what? So... http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e15 http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e15 Mon, 23 May 2005 09:48:31 -0400 It's never been easy for me to get up in the morning. A lot of negative voices start yammering. I've learned the best thing for me to do is to just GET UP and get going. This cuts the negative tapes in their tracks. The rest of the day I am my normal optimistic... http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e14 http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e14 Thu, 19 May 2005 18:00:30 -0400 Many of us still remember The Pointer Sisters. I love their song, Jump! It's a guaranteed energy booster for me. And, in the service of time management skills, jumping helps me be more productive AND happy. How so? I have one of those mini-rebounders, you know,... http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e13 http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e13 Wed, 11 May 2005 03:39:44 -0400 Among time management skills, I love what Myrtle S.Potter has to say. She runs sales, marketing, develpment and managed care for Genentech, Inc, a $3.3 billion biotech business. I'd guess that keeps her pretty busy! In Fast Company she was quoted: "I've... http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e12 http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e12 Mon, 9 May 2005 10:10:48 -0400 The land surveyors showed up last week. The nice woodlot next door is about to become two duplexes, with the corner of one situated twelve feet away from the corner of our house. Ugh. We knew it would happen "someday," but like most humans, we engage in denial... http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e11 http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e11 Fri, 6 May 2005 10:07:21 -0400 A hugely important point of good time management skills is to enjoy your life. This includes when you are working - a major part of the day for most of us. But other times as well. Those miracle breaks, I call them, when you see the miracle of life. My... http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e10 http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200505.html#e10 Tue, 3 May 2005 11:46:50 -0400 Remember when you were a kid how you did experiments? Maybe they were literal science experiments. I remember playing around with my brother's science kit, making things foam and sizzle (although I was disappointed that I never got them to blow up). Maybe you... http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200504.html#e9 http://www.authentic-alternatives.com/200504.html#e9 Fri, 29 Apr 2005 07:47:33 -0400 Remember the shoemaker who had no shoes? Or was it his kids who had no shoes? In either case, so it goes with me this week regarding time. The time manager expert with "no time." It's not actually that my time management skills were out the window. It's just...
