The Flow of work

Take back your time - let's make time for you to live

Is it exhausting balancing work, caring for the family and all the home chores? It's time to take back your time - you're not alone! Let me help you take back ownership of your time. With my help, you can tap into effective systems and concrete actions to free up your time.

Time is of the essence

You will never get time back - time is the most valuable thing you have. Surviving chaos will steal your time, and your life. If you just react, hang on, forget and exhaust, it's time to call it quits. It's your turn to stop, and take back your time! I'll help you build a goal, a strategy and a system that works for your situation.

Even in the midst of all the chaos.

Good time management creates space and efficiency

Time management is essential in demanding professions where quick and difficult decisions are made in challenging circumstances. Personal time management is emphasised and focusing on the essentials is the new super skill of the workplace.

A few key functions are highlighted in knowledge work: if your calendar, email or work style are not aligned with your deep areas of expertise, you cannot give your best at work or be present when you are off. Read below to find out how systematising these areas will change your day-to-day life.

Does your calendar own you or do you own your calendar? Does someone else decide for you what is important at any given time? If you need a change and want to make sure you have your own important bookings, it's time to revamp your calendar system.

With my help, you can fit everything that matters into your calendar, from the big strategic items to the small to-do lists, not to mention the free time.

Do you have 569 unread messages and all in your inbox? You'll still find them thanks to your own system, but it'll take four times as much time as you'd have. You don't know what it's like to have your emails in order - maybe you suspect it's not even for you.

With my help, you'll also get the best out of your email management and never want to go back!

Your work involves changing situations - not to mention situations at home. Sometimes you wonder whether anyone can cope with such a multitasking, and you're probably right. At least not very well or without confusion.

I will help you to group your different work and leisure requirements, freeing up capacity and hours for better use. Later you'll wonder why you didn't do this before!

You may have tried lists and love them, but you don't understand how to get all the day's activities listed and done. You may be a die-hard list hater, but with me you'll see lists as an opportunity instead of an annoying fiddle.

We'll find a task list system that works for you, and you'll finally get rid of the constant reminders that burden you unnecessarily.

I help to clear away the stress of everyday life in the middle of the busy years

I know how it feels when there are not enough hours for a demanding working life, family and home needs, rest and hobbies: at work, the to-do list grows unnoticed. The workload gets tougher and tougher, and the laundry just keeps coming in from somewhere. The chores just keep piling up. At a management meeting, a child's sleep toy is found in the laptop case. Aging parents need help and the dog needs attention. It's frustrating and stressful.

Everyday life doesn't have to be like this. The Art of Decluttering and Organising help when you need to combine a demanding job with a family everyday life.

I am a trained professional organiser and economist. I speak, train and coach in the skills of decluttering and organising, and support work communities in clearing clutter. Contact me for a fresh perspective on the super-skills of the modern world!
