Living a Quality Life with Limited Quantity of Time

Many of us today are suffering from “time poverty.” There just don't seem to be enough hours in the day for most people. Yet time is the one thing in life that is egalitarian. It's what we do with the 24/7 that makes the difference in our ability to truly enjoy life while accomplishing everything we need to professionally and personally. Nancy shares her “compartment” living strategy to help individuals develop a plan to enjoy a quality life.

This workshop provides meaningful, real-life information to evaluate how we spend our time and develop a strategy for managing professional and personal responsibilities to meet individual needs. The result is improved workplace productivity and increased time for activities outside the workplace while living our values and achieving goals.

Many of us today are trying to “be all things to all people.” Especially as women, we fill the “nurturing” need much of the time for others. The challenge is more than more people can easily manage.

As entrepreneurs, the challenge is even more difficult. Many of us are trying to build and manage a successful business while trying to maintain a personal life as well.

This program challenges us to identify what is really important – our life values - then develop a plan to live according to those values. It isn't easy, but it is important, to be true to ourselves.

When you experience a change in your life, whether a positive or negative, you may have difficulty moving from the comfort of the familiar through the uncertainty of change to a new beginning.

“Transitions” guides people through the emotional transition of “what was” to “what will be.” Change is successful only when we reorient and adapt on a personal level to the changing needs of the situation. This program provides a method to help people whose work or personal life is changing; learn the three phases of chance and a process to manage each; and recognize change as a journey, not an event.

Do you ever wonder why you naturally “click” with some people, but with others it seems like you just don't connect? Understanding others' preferred behavioral style allows us to communicate in a way that produces the best results. Everyone has communication strengths; but when those clash with ours, conflict arises and the likelihood of a positive outcome is reduced. This informative presentation helps people quickly and easily identify our own communication style and that of others.
