For starters, it's just common courtesy. If you've ever been at the receiving end of waiting for someone who'd habitually late, you'll know how bad it is to be waiting around for someone to turn up. It's plain good manners to be punctual when you're turning up for a meeting with someone.

Some things start on time whether...

Recently I have been experiencing a major 80's flash back. It seems like we have regressed back in time somehow. The Tories are back in power, Torvill and Dean are skating on the TV and The Karate Kid, Transformers and The A-Team are all showing in our cinemas. It's like the 80s never ended.

But the biggest surprise is that even the classic Filofax personal organiser is still alive and very much kicking in 2010. Which is a massive surprise in the year of smart phones and iPads? It...

Time is a major factor for a life of impact. Business men say often, "time is money", because their success is tied to how wisely they invest their time. Time is success. Those who do not know how to make proper use of their time cannot accidentally stumble into success.

They took...

Time can't be managed. It ticks inexorably forward, second by second. The phrase "time management" is really just a catch-all to describe how we get things done. The sum of all we get done is our productivity. Thus, we're talking about productivity, and, in this case, individual productivity.

I am the worst offender when it comes to disorganizing our garage. I know I am not the only offender in the family. Even though I am a professional organizer and I know better I am really good at doing a number on our garage. I routinely organize it twice a year. Once in the spring before it gets too hot and in the fall before it gets too cold. Each year it takes less time for me to get it organized because I have places for everything and mostly I just have to put things in their...

The ocean is both powerful and hypnotic. When we visited Maine we watched as the beautiful white waves come crashing onto the rocks. In Delaware we watched as the waves come rushing onto the sandy beach where they calmly flattened out and slunk back out to gather speed again.

On one particular beach there was a sign saying "Stay Out—Strong Undertow". A friend told me that a few weeks before our visit someone had been sucked under the water because of the pull of...

How many times have you said “If only I had more time, I’d …”?

Many of us have come to say this on a fairly regular basis, as our lives become more and more cluttered with things to do.  Life seems to be getting faster, fuller, and more frustrating and we seem to be striving to make sense out of how it all got so out of control and what we can do to reclaim some balance in our life.   Whether you work full-time outside of the...
