Time management tips - Life Success Coach

Use a to do list or an appointment book
Writing down the things you need to do has a number of benefits. It helps you not forget anything, it also reduces stress by giving your head the space  to drop your mental checklist.

Prioritise your tasks
Compete the most important, then do the quickest tasks. If you have a few "to do's" that will only take five minutes, get them done and out of the way.

Big tasks can be broken down.
Its easy to feel overwhelmed when you have big jobs in front of you. Breaking bigjobs into small peices helps you get started.

Limit distractions
What are your distractions?  distractions such as social media or TV. Allow time to finish tasks but also allow down time for the things you enjoy. Make sure you prioritise whats important first though.

If you  cant limit your distractions, then move away from them
Have boundaries between work and play,  turning your phone off,  be somewhere where the distractions are around. 

Give yourself time between the things you are wanting to get done.
Always give yourself an amount of time in between jobs or meetings, so that you are not fumbling around if you do happen to run over time on something.

Just remember to do your best at every task. Think about if you want to have to redo the task, or do it once and do it properly.  Don't aim to be perfect as it isn't always requried and can waste a lot of your valuable time.

Manifest. Abundance. Connection

 Manifesting. Abundance. Connections. One thing all of us need is connections. We need connections to feel safe, to grow, to love  and to feel connected to someone or something else. One of my beliefs is that if we can always give someone 5 minutes of your time. In that 5 minutes of genuinely giving someone your time and attention, connections can be made.  The secret to this strategy is to have good boundaries so that you don't become the person who has to listen to everyone's story over and over and it become draining on yourself.  Most people wouldn't be able to tell you the last time someone took a straight 5 minutes to listen and communicate without other distraction. Yet this form of communication is the most important. In that 5 minutes you could have unknowingly been someone's light house, someone could have been having the worst day ever, and your kindness of just listening, talking and being there 100% just for 5 minutes can change the protectory of their d...

Special Needs Children - Angels that walk the Earth

Over the years I have had a fair bit to do with children with special needs and their parents. The sheer love and determination from parents of special needs children, shines though, and parents learn ways to manage different problems they have to overcome. Years ago as a teenager I used to visit a friends brother in a residential care home for children. My first visit left me feeling sad and overwhelmed. Being a teenager and really thinking mostly about myself, I felt I had enough issues in my own life to deal with, growing up seemed hard enough at the time. So I choose not to go back and visit again.  Something inside me keep bugging me and months later I returned to the home and my visits become weekly Friday night visits.  My love for these children grew and grew to the point I gave up Happy Hour at work. Remember I was a teenager, happy hour in the middle of town on a Friday night was a ton of fun.  Something inside me gave my night away in order to visit ...

Welcome to 2015, Let us make it the best year yet.

Happy New Year to you all.  It is hard to believe how quickly the days, months and years roll by.  How was 2014 for you? Hopefully it was a good year for you.  What would you like 2015 to hold?   We all have goals and dreams, some we achieve and some we just don't. Sometimes we can get caught up in the thought the dreams are for others. I truly believe that if someone out there is doing what I want to do, then why can't I.  Often what stops us are our self limiting beliefs.  Sometimes we can hold a fear of failure, so it is easier not to try because we might fail, and who wants to fail.  Let us change our meaning of failure, failure is merely feedback.  Every time something doesn't work out the way we think, we learn not to do it that way, so we try another way.  Failure can be very useful and maybe try changing the wording to feedback. I believe Success is a Birth Right. Every one has a right to be successful. Success is a...
