The use of the “Beforehand” Technique for Optimizing Time

As professionals, many of us find it hard to manage our time. One of the constant thoughts in the back or front of our minds is about how to complete tasks within the given timeframe. If there is one resource we seem to be eternally short of; it is time. We are among millions of professionals who have a very difficult time managing their time. Yet, some people seem to be at ease with this element. They seem to have a great knack of managing time better and more efficiently.

Even though we may feel like admiring this quality of theirs because we don’t have it and this ability enables them to be a lot more efficient at what they do; the good news is that we can get it, too. People who manage time better were not born with that special talent. With some conditioning and practice, we can get it, too. It requires tact, patience and common sense.

Enter, the beforehand technique of time management

In managing time, what most of us, those who are not good at it, need to realize is that we take the aftermath approach to time management. What this means is that we respond to a situation after it arises. This approach lies at the root of successful time management or otherwise. Because we respond to situations, we are constantly hard-pressed for time, we are unable to meet deadlines, and we are inefficient at completing our tasks optimally. What is needed is a shift in technique -the ability to be able to manage time beforehand. This simple approach is fundamentally different from that of the aftermath approach, and is a major determinant in how we manage time.

The main leverage that the beforehand technique gives us that it we are left with the precious comfort called space. The mental and physical that the beforehand technique gives us helps us to anticipate the next moves. Anticipation, vision and foresight are required and are the cornerstone to bringing about this thinking.

Setting up personal "systems"

Jeff will explain a method of integrating time managers’ priorities and goals with what he calls their personal "systems". These are objects that show how we manage our time. It is reflected by ways such as how to keep our desk, office, closets, car and other spaces. The basis to managing the beforehand lies in getting organized. This quality gives some people the ability to stay in control of their time and on top of things without any difficulty. Depending on how well one adapts this, this exercise could take as little as just one weekend and some weeknights.

Removing fear is the key

When inculcated without letting fear creep in, the "beforehand" insight and strategy will help us face the challenging work environment in which we find ourselves all the time. When we adapt this technique, we find that we have a lot of time and the ability to rise above the prevailing norms in the industry and consistently exhibit high productivity. Jeff will offer simple measures that will be very effective and will go a long way in helping us tackle many issues relating to time.

Jeff will cover the following areas at this webinar:

• How to emulate the best practices of others
• How to manage the beforehand for optimal productivity gain
