Poor Time Management May Be Dangerous To Your Personal Relationships

When people think, time management, they think efficiency, their minds take a trip on the to list train, they ponder how they can have more time in their lives. They rarely think how poor time management skills can impact their relationships, both personally and professionally on an interpersonal level.

Time Management impacts all areas of one's life and relationships suffer when a person has bad time management skills. Respect, trust, dependability are impacted. People lose respect for an individual when promises are made and broken because tasks are not getting completed when they are committed to be done. Trust is impacted in the same manner and so is your dependability factor. 

Whether they want to or not, people avoid counting on a person who has demonstrated the inability or lack of dependability to achieve a task in a timely manner. This takes away a basic foundational aspect of a personal relationship... trust. Over time this can be very damaging to personal relationships. When trust in one's ability to deliver on commitments is lost it bleeds into multiple areas of the relationship and becomes muddy water under the relationship bridge. This can build up, resentment can begin to take hold and believability is impacted on a grander scale. 

This can happen at work or home. 

Further impacts extend to more hours at work and less at home or the alternate can happen as well, more time spent at home which means less at work. Both of these can result in job security at multiple levels. This can then impact the financial bottom line and it is widely recognized the number one reason for break ups is financial. 

Aside from the personal relationships, a person with poor time management skills often feels the weight of the world is on their shoulders, that they are unable to catch up, and many times they give up. Better to not try at all then to try and fail... this is not a comfortable place to be in. I'm writing this because I've been there. I know how poor time management skills is harmful to relationships because I went through it a long time ago and it is a tender reminder in times of need to motivate me to remain an effective time manager. 

Being effective at time management isn't super difficult. It requires a person to create a process, stick to the process and resulting schedule, and re-evaluating every week to make sure you're on track. The hard part is getting into the habit of the process, scheduling, and follow through but once you've broken past that process you'll find in general you achieve more, you're more focused on the future, you have more time to balance home and work life balance, and people in your life will have more trust in your ability to keep your commitments. 

There are many resources available online to developing effective time management. Coaches are great resources to help you develop time management skills more personalized to your needs and keep you on track with your goals. I work with many clients in this area.

Get back on Track for your Desired Success

Take a moment and think back to December 31st, 2015. The year was over and you probably, like thousands of other people across the world, had high hopes to change your future, create goals, resolutions, or actions to get back on track to your desired future. You, like many others, probably wanted to wipe the slate clean and start fresh with the coming year...

So what happened? Are you on track to hit your goals or did they fizzle out as life got in the way? Did you have every intention of making those dreams happen but didn't know how to get started? Did you make some impact in achieving your desired success? Are you on the right track? Have you overcome hurdles? Or are you stuck? Did you let the dreams fall to the side? Did you lose momentum?

The majority of those that have found success had a road map to get there. They knew step by step how they were going to achieve their dreams and made a plan to reach specific landmarks to obtain those success points. They were able to visualize where they want to go and have designed  a plan to get there.

For those of you that have not found that success recipe yet, it isn't too late to get back on the success train. There are a couple of ways to make this happen.

1. Research goal setting and action planning.
2. Take my online course to creating goals and effective action plans (class one; Analyze, Self Discover, and Create a starting point on your success path, class two; Create Short and Long Term Goals, class three; Prioritize and Downsize larger Goals for Effective Action Planning, and class four; Action Plans, Setting it all in motion). You can take these all separately or if you need a little extra step by step guidance join my Workshop. If you're interested in taking these classes get a month free at Skillshare with this link.
3. Hire a Life Coach (check out my website for more details)

If things are going successful for you right now, congratulations! Keep up the amazing work and I hope you find all the success you're driving for, but if you need a little extra help to Design Your Desired Future, there are ways to find it.

I became a coach because I love helping people empower themselves to make lasting transformations in their lives. Techniques I use in my online coaching classes as well as in my coaching practice are effective. I've used many of these tools on myself and found amazing success. Three years ago I wanted to become a best selling author. I published my first fiction book and now have over 20 titles available and have even become a New York Time Bestseller.... those things don't happen overnight and for some (very few) they come naturally but for others they take work.

I've helped hundreds of people make lasting changes in their personal, professional and spiritual lives and I'd love to help you. Check out my classes, call me for a free life coaching session, what do you have to lose?

For now, I am signing off. Have a wonderfully successful day ~ Jami
