[Video] Time Management Traps and Tips: Goals

In our 5 step approach to time management, we have a strong bias in the approach for being very clear about your personal and professional goals.  In fact, Step 1 in our suggested approach is: “Set Goals and Action Plans.”  Once you have your goals outlined and have identified the actions that need to take place to make those goals a reality, you will have a much better idea of how you should allocate your precious time for the achievement of those goals.

But what we have found is that people who become disappointed or overwhelmed are typically not achieving their goals, stated or unstated – personal or professional.  This may not come to fore.  It may not be what people are thinking consciously, but deeper down do you ever think: “I am not achieving my goals (personal or professional) and I am frustrated and disappointed?”

This segment of our time management training series Manage Your Time – Traps and Tricks walks through 5 traps and tips to make sure you are on track to achieve your goals, because here at BrightWork we believe that this will really set you up for success and happiness!

The short segment will cover five very common goals traps, and make some suggestions on how to avoid them!

1. Not achieving your goals?
2. Unclear path to success?
3. Not getting to your goals?
4. Feeling overwhelmed?
5. Stressed?
