I was surfing around and found
this Squidoo page that I think describes a very handy method for scheduling that uses only paper and pencil. Or, more accurately, it uses a diary system to manage time.
The creator, Carmen a.k.a. Clutterbugs, rightly makes the point that much of what we do is […]

One of the easiest ways to check whether or not someone is at a higher belt level is to observe carefully how they handle email.
What do they have in their in-box? Is the number of emails always kept small? Does email get sent to them that they never reply to? Does email routinely get […]

During the recent pilot of
NewHabits-NewGoals (the course built on the concepts of 2Time), it struck me that every professional has their own home-grown time management system. They developed it in a trial-and-error fashion, mostly starting when they were in their early teens, and picking up bits and pieces from people they admired along […]

The first pilot program using the ideas in the
2Time Mgt Blog was completed last week with a hardy, challenging group of 13 professionals.
It was a great learning experience all around, and I learned a lot from exposing people to the ideas from this blog for the very first time. My wife has been […]

I just finished leading the pilot course based on the 2Time principles. The two day session conducted here in Kingston, Jamaica seemed to go well, and I learned a lot from the participants and how they worked with these ideas.
One lesson that came home clearly is that professionals look for a new time management […]

This is quite a good article entitled
Installing a new habit and breaking an old one by Stephanie Burns on the practice of changing habits.
In 2Time, all progress hinges on a keen self-knowledge of how to change one’s habits. We are all different, and respond to different sets of stimuli. What we […]

I got some good news this week from the folks at
ChangeThis.com, which was that my proposal to write my manifesto had been accepted.
In prior posts,
including this one, I mentioned that I had written a proposal to write a manifesto for the website.
My proposal,
which is described here, did quite well, receiving some […]

I have just finished listening to the audio book “
The 4-Hour Work Week” which I enjoyed immensely, even as I disagreed with some of the points made by the author, Time Ferriss.
One chapter is entitled “The End of Time Management”.
He argues that one should forget all about time management!
Of course, this is more of […]
