Are you up against the clock? There are many deadlines that we face, and some can be overwhelming when looked at as a whole. It may be best to break down the projects into smaller manageable pieces and work at getting through the whole, one manageable piece at a time.
It always seems that the final hour may be the most productive.
I have found that I work best early in the morning. This is the time of day I have the best energy.
This final hour scene is new. The market has changed. Give us the inventory to work with and we will push it.
Nice post Tom.
I work better under SOME pressure - NOT A LOT - but some URGANCY is usually helpful...especially when I PERFORM
Something about eating the elephant a bite at a time? That's the old saying anyway. I always have a hard time deciding how to butcher the sucker.
Breaking things down into more manageable parcels is my way of doing things and always has been Tom.
Tom, Great advise, although deadlines do help us to achieve more. I am almost always most effective the eve of a deadline.
Good morning Tom. I like this philosopy and think it is most productive too. Simple, effective and well stated. Suggested.
Hey Tom, you are right - best to break projects into manageable pieces - but deadlines can be so damn fun. All that adrenaline pumping... :)
Thanks Richard, great to hear that things are going well for you.I know what you mean about feeling that relief, thought it would never get here.
Thanks Noah for the comment. More inventory may be a blessing for many of you.
I think that acting with some sense of urgency is important to acheivement Wallace.
Rob - Maybe it is how I trained... High School and College were endless cramming sessions for projects and exams; I guess that is what I know how to do. :)
Yes Debb, the fun of the adrenaline rush; masked in a pile of paperwork and Federal guidelines.
I'm almost euphoric!
Tom, I work very well under pressure and deadlines but that doesn't mean that I am not a bit grouchy.
