5 Signs It’s Time to Reprioritize at Work

Friday, March 23rd, 2012

During Lent many people often give up or do without as they contemplate their spiritual beliefs, and how Jesus Christ’s life and death personally affects how they live their lives on a daily basis. Regardless if you’re Christian or not, the Lenten season typically provides an opportunity for quiet self-reflection during observation of the Holy days. If it feels like you’re one step away from spending an entire day in bed or just vegetating, then read on to see if you’re in need of reprioritizing at work.
1. You consistently add more to your To-Do List than you cross-off
Sometimes it helps to pause and see the long term (a couple of months or more) and short term (every week or daily) reasoning behind why you’re driving yourself so hard. If you’re able to sense that the upcoming week will be packed, then it behooves you to slow down the following week.
Solution: If one day is super busy, then plan to have more down time the next day to recover or attend to what wasn’t finished the previous day. This only works if you have set busy/recovery times.
2. Forgetting important details
If you find that you cannot remember what you did an hour earlier, or are trying to remember if you had made an appointment for your personal health earlier in the year, then you may be overworked.
Solution: In this case a planner comes in extremely handy. Use it to look things up, and to keep track going forward. If you’re so busy, you’re unable to recall with your memory, then you may be doing too many things at once and will need to slow down and do less.
3. Work through breaks and lunch
Stop. Our bodies need nourishment and time off, several times during the day. Being on “go” all day, with no moments to savor a cup of tea, or chew our food thoroughly, enjoying the bursts of flavor, not only affects our waistlines and digestion, it affects our resiliency to stress.
Solution: Put down your pen, back away from the computer, turn off your phone. Spend the 15-, 30-, or hour long break being in the present moment, being aware of what your senses are telling you, and enjoying the respite from work.
4. You commit to meetings and helping others, and your work performance suffers
If you find yourself saying yes when your plate is already too full, or you are being given too many tasks by your boss (or pressure from yourself) to be able to complete in a regular work day, and you’re unable to tie up your loose ends each week, then you may need to re-evaluate what’s important.
Solution: Sit down over the weekend with your planner. Pencil everything that must get done next week. Schedule the day and time when you’ll get these high priority items done. If you don’t know until the morning of each day, then estimate how long you can devote to the last minute high priority items, and block this amount of time out. Then, as you’re given more things to do, as you create your daily agenda, and there’s no time to add the new tasks, write them into your schedule for the next day. If you have to negotiate what to leave on and take off the agenda with someone, your written schedule provides a visual aid with which to make your point.
5. You feel resistance, lethargy, exhaustion, and anxiety whenever you think of what needs to be done
If you find yourself getting overwhelmed or anxious that your slate is never wiped clean, then you may need to take a break so you can gain a fresh perspective to improve your mood.
Solution: Take a half a day or an entire day off so you can get away to refresh your batteries. Do not think about what needs to be done, just give yourself permission to relax and spend time doing the things you love by yourself and with the people you love.
If you regularly experience three or more of these signs, then it may be time to take a hard look at your schedule so you don’t burn out. And, if you’re burnt out, then it will take longer than just a day to regain your equilibrium. Be gentle with yourself, and give yourself permission to slow down. If it’s a question of how to enforce your boundaries better with others so you don’t take on too much, then learn how to set boundaries and manage your time. It’s never too late to learn.

Rosa & John

Rosa recently attended the Mars Venus Coach Induction Training here in Las Vegas as a trainer. She was certified at that training as an official Mars Venus Coaching Trainer. Congratulations Rosa! Below is her Bio in Spanish and English.

Rosa María Botrán ha sido el tipo de persona que siempre ha buscado la manera de ayudar a otras personas. Una experiencia en su vida le enseñó una gran lección: Atento, no se sabe en qué momento vas a tocar la vida de alguien más. Esto la lleva a aprender nuevas formas y técnicas para asistir a otras personas a crear una mejor vida. Ella ha participado en varios seminarios de desarrollo personal, lo que la ha ayudado, no sólo a mejorar su propia vida, sino la de otros.

La curiosidad innata que Rosa posee, así como su profundo deseo de ayudar a otros la llevó a convertirse en entrenadora certificada de Programación Neuro Lingüística. Con esto, ella ha trabajado exitosamente con varios deportistas a que logren hacer cambios que han mejorado su desempeño en su juego y por lo tanto, sus resultados. También ha entrenado maestros en estas técnicas para que puedan asistir a sus alumnos a que aprendan de una mejor manera.

Con una licenciatura en mercadeo y dos maestrías, y más de 20 años de carrera exitosa en el sector corporativo, Rosa sintió la necesidad de ir por su sueño más grande: ayudar a otros a llevar una mejor vida. Convertirse en una Coach de Mars Venus le ha dado las herramientas y técnicas que le permiten asistir a sus clientes a alcanzas sus objetivos.

Adicional al Coaching, Rosa también es facilitadora de seminarios y talleres enfocados en mejorar relaciones, tanto personales, como en el lugar de trabajo.

Rosa María Botrán is the type of person that has always looked for ways to help other people. One experience in particular taught her a great lesson: Be aware – you never know whose life you are going to touch.

This had prompted her to acquire new programs and learn new techniques to assist other people in creating a better life. She has attended many personal development seminars, which have helped her improve her own life as well as those of others in a very positive way.

Rosa´s natural curiosity and drive to help people led her to become an NLP trainer. She utilized this to successfully coach sports people to make changes within themselves in order to improve their ‘game’ performance, and she’s trained teachers to assist their students in learning new methods to better learning skills.

With a degree in Marketing, two MBAs, and after more than 20 years of working successfully in the corporate world, Rosa felt the need to pursue her real passion – that of helping people lead better lives.

Becoming a Mars Venus Coach has given her the additional tools and skills to help others create the life they dream of and deserve by utilizing the latest coaching techniques to assist her clients in achieving their goals.

Aside from direct coaching, Rosa facilitates workshops and seminars to improve relationships, both personally and within the work place.
