Time Stealers What About?

Assertiveness is the key to handle many of those time-stealers imposed on us e.g. interruptions by others, too much work, too many meetings, conflicting priorities, timescales imposed.

To increase our assertiveness and overcome these time stealers in our work or personal life, we need to Say No more. Saying no doesn t mean you aren t a team player or not a nice person, it simply means that at that moment you are unable to do what is asked.

Saying yes all the time is counter-productive as you become overloaded and are unable to deliver/help everyone. Saying no in the right way provides you with ability to deliver what you need to.

Ways to over come Self-inflicted time stealers can be found in the Procrastination; Prioritisation and Work station sections.
