This month, our professional development offerings focus on planning and achieving. Are there major goals you’d like to achieve (both professionally and personally) but you never find the space to make them happen? Do you have a major project ahead that you need to get organized?
Working in an organized and efficient manner seems like an improbable task for some. The fact is that it is both easier and harder than ever to plan and achieve our major objectives- our big rocks. Prioritizing our big rocks require focused attention, high-value decision making, and high energy.
According to Edward M. Hallowell, MD, founder of the Hallowell Center for Cognitive and Emotional Health, the key symptoms of the neurological condition, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) have become some of the key attributes of most people working and living in today’s world.
“Over the past decade or so more and more people have come to me saying they had ADD, but they didn’t. They had what I call a ‘sever case of modern life,’” said Dr. Hallowell. Our modern environment has created symptoms of overload such as distractibility, impulsivity, disorganization, trouble planning and procrastination, making it difficult to follow through on plans.
This month we offer a couple of useful trainings that will help you identify what is important, where to place your focus, and how to plan your projects from start to finish. We hope you can join us.
