They feel they have been managing calendars or planning meetings forever so why pay attention.

So around this time I committed to using two tools for task and project management. I taught The NOW Year™ Method for a class that I’d been doing for some time instead of going through the usual curriculum…and it landed amazingly well with the students.

I have taken several courses and classes. Yes, I have taken job-specific software classes, classes to learn organizational and people skills, and took computer certification classes which I was not aware I needed coming right out of high school. Currently studying a Personal Assistant Diploma. A waste of their talents!

We also get a mini break when our boss is traveling as the stress level is generally lower and we can catch up on our workload. Change up something for those 3-4 days as if you were on vacation - stay in a hotel, eat out a lot, get a massage, be a tourist in your own city, read 3 books, take that class you always wanted to take.
