Time Management Training Albuquerque
What Is The Value Of Time Management?
The one non-renewable resource all business owners face is time. You can always make more money, hire more people, obtain new equipment, etc., but once time is gone, it’s gone. That’s why time management training in Albuquerque is so important.
The value of time management is one of the most important skills for which coaching is beneficial. You can acquire all the right knowledge and have the best ideas, but if you don’t execute those ideas, it’ll likely be a result of poor time management.
Time management is really a misnomer. Can we really manage time? No, not really. Time is a constant. However, we can manage ourselves. Our time management coaching starts with running a weekly time log to record where you are spending your time. After a week or two of logging where you spend your time, patterns will emerge. You will discover that you spend your time in one of 4 areas:
- Not Urgent-Not Important: Distractions
- Urgent-Not Important: Delusions
- Urgent-Important: Demands
- Not Urgent-Important: The Zone.
The Zone is when we are working on our business or on ourselves. Most entrepreneurs and executives are only getting to the Zone maybe 3% of the time. Our goal is to get you to 20% of your time working in the zone with effective time management. This, by the way, would equate to approximately one day per week!
Keys to Effective Time Management
Many issues arise each working day, but not all need to be dealt with immediately. The first step towards time management is understanding time quadrants. You want to focus the majority of your time and attention in The Zone to reduce stressful demands and keep distractions and delusions from infringing on your free time.
The next step towards effective time management is practicing these 3 key components:
- Priorities—knowing what needs to be on top of your “to-do” list
- Discipline—sticking to your priorities and preventing or avoiding distractions
- Focus—effectively and efficiently working towards crossing priority items off your list
Your personal Action Coach coach will help you define your priorities by defining your goals. With our time management workshops, you will also learn strategies like developing a default calendar to help you minimize distractions and effectively work through your daily tasks.
