Crisis Prevention - a worthwhile investment

April 29th, 2008          Email This Post        Print This Post

In discussing living life in crisis mode with some, I came to an interesting conclusion: one of your “jobs” in life is to prevent crises from occuring.

This means investing your time heavlily in quadrant II activities - those activites that are important but not at all urgent.

Find things that waste a signifigant amount of your time or mental energy and finding a way to prevent the loss. Is that email just piling up? Read up on inbox zero techniques. All that reading you need to do taking up lots of your time? Then invest a bit of time in speed reading techniques.

Don’t use your time managing crises - invest your time to give you more in the future. Then you can use your time for what truly matters, and not just things that come up.
