Counter-Intuitive Time Management Techniques to Tame Your Never-Ending To Do List
The absolute BIGGEST challenge that entrepreneurs, artists, authors and other creative geniuses that come to me for help is productivity. Some know they need help with time management techniques. Others are struggling but they haven’t discovered that poor time management is the source of their frustration.By asking a few questions, I zero in on the source of their misery, and evaluate whether they can benefit from the special time management techniques I teach. I just look for certain things they have in common.4 Things All Entrepreneurs, Authors and Other Creative Geniuses That Need Time Management Help Have in Common:- They are amazingly creative yet they feel like underachievers because even though they generate brilliant ideas with jaw-dropping ease, they struggle to act on them.- These “live-wire” geniuses are adventurous, ambitious and energetic. They’ll start a hundred projects, but then bog down because of indecision, procrastination or a feeling of overwhelm. – They search relentlessly for new time management tips and try anything to improve their time management skills regardless of past struggles, but standard, “common sense” time management techniques just don’t work.- Despite their best efforts, they’ve accumulated a never-ending To Do list (I call it their To Do “book”) and they’re frustrated with time management techniques that don’t work.These thrill-seeking rebels share another characteristic. Each was diagnosed with ADD or ADHD as a child, has adult ADHD, or exhibits many adult ADHD traits. Their brains work differently than most people. But, as soon as they turn on to my counter-intuitive time management techniques they experience a dramatic turnaround almost overnight.See, you have to understand that your productivity depends on your mental and physical energy. Yes, you produce less when you’re tired, but your energy levels fluctuate far more than you realize. How Your Energy Levels Affect Your Productivity- At times, you have ample mental energy. You can laser-focus on anything that interests you, you’re amazingly productive, and you keep going long after other people are exhausted.- Other times, you have plenty of physical energy, but your brain is also racing. You can’t concentrate. You’re eager to move and go through short (physical) tasks with ease.- You need time to recharge. Your brain isn’t a plough-horse, plodding sedately. It’s a racehorse, capable of stunning bursts of power and speed. Like a racehorse, you must recharge between races. – You also have your own unique energy fluctuations between these that create periods when you’re better at some tasks than you are at others.Your energy fluctuations follow an identifiable pattern. When my clients track their energy level fluctuations at work and at play, within a week they have an accurate map of their daily energy levels, and the pattern repeats almost identically from week to week. As a creative genius, you’ll always have many tasks on your To Do list! You effortlessly think up cool things to do or important things you should do. But you have to commit to do those tasks at a specific time by moving them from your To Do list to your agenda. Unfortunately, the large, unstructured space of your blank agenda often leads to indecisiveness and procrastination. Think of it as writer’s block for time management. A Time Management Technique That Will Add Productive Hours to Your Day and Cut Your “To-Do” List Down to Size GuaranteedYou need a way to categorize and prioritize your tasks. Traditional time management techniques group tasks by importance. But assigning letter and number combinations to signify priority loses its effectiveness when you have 47 “A” tasks, at least six of which are important enough to be an “A1!” Instead, you should group your tasks by the energy required.Now, here’s the secret to doubling your productivity and cutting your To Do list down to size. Use the map of your energy fluctuations to match tasks from your To Do list with a time when you typically have the ideal energy level for that task. Almost effortlessly, you’ll give your productivity a huge shot in the arm. Match your activities with times when you have the ideal energy type and level for maximum productivity doing that task and you’ll tear through your To Do list like a tornado.

Teenagers Education – Just For Parents
I wrote an article to bring up what I consider a crucially important issue: “Teenagers And High School Teachers”. Bring up the chair, and you be the judge.
High School teachers can influence our teenagers to the point of shaping and sculpting them, As a result of such power, I was wondering if a teacher gets a job based on a college degree OR if that teacher has demonstrated how to teach in addition to a college degree. In my article, I wrote “There seems to be very few parents realizing and comprehending how critically important it is to have not only well prepared and skilled teachers knowledgeable in one subject or science, but teachers who must inescapably be proficient to execute what is vital and crucial: How To Teach.”
* Will it be possible that teenagers failing in High School is because nature made a mistake in not providing them with intelligence and normal intellect ?
* Will it be possible that teenagers failing in High School is because they confront teachers who were not demanded to have mandatory skills on how to teach ?
If a teenager develops normally, it is then highly unlikely that his brain ~at an early stage in life~ cannot assimilate knowledge. It is a fact that nature’s designer decided that ~more than at any age~ our teen years is when our brain is wide open to acquire knowledge and to develop aptitudes and talents. It leads me to deduce that ~when something is not well in High School~ it may not be that a young mind fails because nature made a mistake, but it may be that the process of proficiently and correctly pass knowledge on is the one failing.
As an editor, publisher, and parent, I felt compelled to write about this critical issue in the hope that you ~as a parent I presume~ may have wanted to read about something that has the power to detrimentally affect your teenager’s life, to adversely influence the initial stages of his life, and to potentially do the same to a good portion of his adult life.
We parents have many obligations. An inescapable obligation is to become conscientious that our teenagers may not be in the best position to speak up confronting what they likely perceive as an intimidating establishment of adults determined to admit no wrong-doings, but to flip the pancake over ~so to speak~ washing their hands when claiming that it is our teenagers the ones on the wrong side of matters.
We parents we are our teenagers’ best asset, and we must ensure their success in life rather than choosing a path of least resistance being unconcerned during the most formative chapters of their lives.
