Did you know that 60-90% of all doctor visits are for stress-related illnesses? Stress is costly in terms of your health, relationships and performance. When you’re affected by too much stress your body wears down and you get sick.

Highly disorganized people seem to be more susceptible to sickness as they are always under extreme pressure, running from one disaster to another. They fail to realise  they constantly repeat the same mistakes by not addressing the fundamental issues that are the cause of their problems and guess what that is? Their own personal disorganisation.

I don’t know about you, but I get annoyed  when I constantly have to phone or email the same person because they don’t respond to my messages, especially if it’s for products or services that I’m interested in. The impression I form of them can include any or all of the following:

… they’re disorganised

… don’t care

… avoiding me

… not trustworthy (can I believe what they say?)

Have you ever felt totally overwhelmed because you were surrounded by clutter? When you work in a cluttered environment it crowds your thinking and easily distracts you. Not only that clutter wastes your time and your money.

John had an air conditioning business which he ran from his home office.
He found that whenever he didn’t keep his office tidy, his cash-flow would slow down.

When he did his invoicing to clients, he would lose money because he couldn’t include all the costs associated with each job. The paperwork would get buried under all the clutter.

With the end of the tax year fast approaching now is an ideal time to focus on your personal affairs. I’m always amazed that so many business owners and entrepreneurs spend most of their time consumed by their business and totally neglect their personal affairs.

Many of my clients want to get their business organised yet often admit that their personal affairs are in chaos. They have no systems for handling this most important area. The household paperwork is disorganised… piled up in a corner of the house… somewhere. They have no idea where they spend their money and often have no plan for their financial future.

Do you find it frustrating knowing that there must be a better way to manage your time, yet you can’t seem to pinpoint exactly what you need to do? Well here’s a simple secret that could easily save you a couple of hours a day.

I’ve been coaching Greg for only a couple of months and in that time he has made big changes in his business and his life by actioning what he has learned.Now that he is planning his working day he’s found he has easily saved 2 hours a day. That’s 10 hours in a basic working week or, in other words, he has gained an additional day a week!
