But when it comes to my personal productivity, I definitely have minimalist tendencies. There are other forms of time theming that you can use to align your tasks. Maybe I’m tired or traveling (like I am now). The box of restaurant portion sized ketchup. I don’t consider myself to be a minimalist. Don’t like Heinz?

When I receive an initial request for a meeting, I use a meeting form and write down the information I need: who is requesting the meeting, what is the purpose of the meeting, where it will be held and a phone number or an e-mail address and dates that are available.

If you have a few ideas or requests in your e-mail, it is best to set it out in point form so the person does not have to dig for it. Robbs drivers license; - A completed application form; and - a cheque or money order in the amount of $10 made out to the Ministry of Heath." Point being.

I only use this if I have a form or something that I always want the current date on it. If you change your mind later and decide you prefer another format, it is easy to go back and re-set the default in the same way as above.

Food, food and more food If your event requires food the venue will send you a banqet event form and you will need to estimate the amount of food you need. Highlight that date as well and put it in your Tasks with a reminder to get back to them with final numbers. I keep a list of the contacts I make at various venues.

Where I used to work we had a Mailroom and I would plunk what I needed in a tray with a form to tell them how I wanted it to turn out and return to get it when it was finished. I am good at some things, but not as confident in other things. For instance, I am horrible at collating. I liked that. Now I have to do it myself.

If he is travelling, I send it by e-mail, but it has been my experience that I will get better results with a face-to-face meeting. Put it in a folder for your boss’s signature in completed form, i.e. envelope clipped to letter and attachments. I usually put a sticky note on it for that as well.

Without a goal to direct it, without a plan to make it something material, it will remain in its raw form. And every form of raw energy is a dangerous thing to play with. Less is more: less fear, anger and revenge will definitely make room for something else. Less is definitely more. And then a little bit more.

If you are planning to pursue your passion, they are definite essential steps in your journey. Form clear goals and hold yourself accountable to them.

Nothing fancy, just a lot of windows, menus and forms. Sometimes validation comes in form of money. Sometimes it comes in form of emotional support. Bloggers seek validation from their commenters, restaurants seek validation from customers. Things were spiced a little bit by the fact that the terms were in French.

Embark on an unexpected travel. Maybe the trip turned out to be a fiasco because the budget exploded and now you have to do the dishes in a restaurant to pay for your plane ticket home (or, most likely, you ignored some very common sense rule and it turned out that rule was for real). Denial is a form of rejecting reality.

Whether this involves setting the time of the event, or getting gas before a long trip, or picking the restaurant to meet at, this is your chance to impress everyone. Usually, when something is very easy, it is not impressive in any shape or form. It is very easy to lose your cool in a tough or argumentative situation.
