So true! Floyd Wickman always said that time management was the most ask for training session. I find that if I look at how much time something will actually take, I get more done.

Toula,

Lee Iacocca was so dynamic when he took over at Chrysler. Obviously, he knew the value of time.

Coming from Lee Iacocca...that speaks volumes.  He knew what he was doing.  I think Focus does make a difference...I know on days where I let my email, phone, etc interrupt my task...it takes twice as long.

Concentration can become so critical.  Especially this time of year.  I actually bought my daughter-in-law a Christmas present, and then bought her something else within a couple of hours, because I forgot I bought the first item.  My family is so large, that keeping track of shopping during the holidays is an issue. . .LOL
