The prayer of Serenity asks for ‘courage to change the things we can,” most of us spend our lives in a state of denial regarding what we can change.
We seem to refuse to accept the things we cannot change, (reliving them constantly) while abdicating the responsibility TO CHANGE the things we can.
WHAT DO I MEAN?

You probably know what procrastination is, but have you heard about “structured procrastination”? This definition, from Stanford philosophy professor John Perry, casts structured procrastination as something even “productive” people tend to do:
“The list of tasks one has in mind will be ordered by importance. Tasks that seem most urgent and important are on top. But there are also worthwhile tasks to perform lower down on the list. Doing these tasks becomes a way of not doing the things higher up on the list. With this sort of appropriate task structure, the procrastinator becomes a useful citizen. Indeed, the procrastinator can even acquire, as I have, a reputation for getting a lot done.”
Managing professionals has been compared to herding cats and, as all cat owners now, cats are officially un-herdable. However, skilled animals trainers know that cats can be trained, if perhaps not herded, to an extent that amazes those unfamiliar with the methods. Can it work with professionals too?
You do have to work with the temperament of the cat.
Cats do not respond to “negative reinforcement” or punishment. This includes being put on a lead, being ordered around, being shouted at and being subjected to any kind of: “do this or else . . .” approach.

I have never had a client who has not had time issues. I have them myself. Life seems to be going much faster, with more things crowding the day. And there are more and more things waiting in the wings; things we want to get to or hope to get to and some things we will never get to. This seems to be the case whether or not we have taken courses in time management, whether or not we have a PDA, whether or not we are ‘good’ about scheduling.
What do we mean when you say, “I don’t have enough time?” Probably, we mean one of these things:
