Ep. 136: How to Go Faster by Slowing Down - Steve Prentice
“We respond to things emotionally faster than we do logically.”
Time is precious. There are so many things to do and there are even more distractions. Maybe the hardest things to overcome in the game of time are our own habits and mindsets related to work and relaxation. Steve Prentice suggests slowing down, BUT that doesn’t mean moving slowly. It means being in control. He’s mastered time management through an emphasis on living intentionally. He’s isolated and found solutions for many work related behaviours and patterns that hinder efficiency and health.
Steve Prentice is an author, speaker, mentor, and project manager who helps people find better ways to blend talent, technology, and time. He’s the author of two best-selling books, Cool Time - A Hands On Plan For Managing Work And Balancing Time, and Cool Down - Getting Further By Going Slower. As president of the consulting firm, The Bristall Group, he delivers workshops in time management, project management, business writing. He lectures in the Management Program at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology in Toronto and is also regularly called on as an expert and consultant by major media to comment on issues of workplace overload, time management, and technology. He delivers numerous keynotes each year and also writes columns on productivity and technology.
Expert Action Steps:
- Record your ideas on paper as clear as your short-term memory.
- Invest time to communicate with mentors.
- Manage your expectation of what is available in a day. Identify the best things that you can work on during the day and focus on that.
