Since I just commented and realized I did not provide additional ideas.

Capacity-

If you operate at 100% capacity or the cliche 110% of capacity you have no room for growth, improvement or redirects.

If you create your schedule with excess capacity you will always look like a champ. You now have the ability to respond when it is appropriate. If you leave no room for error or revisions you are sure to have things fall through the cracks.

The simple practical application for this is leaving 15 minutes early for all appointments.

Thanks,

I just learned of you at Dave Knox’s Blog. Great post over there.

I like the time management information. I have been going through a process of managing my book of business which has grown beyond what I can handle by myself.

These are all excellent points and things I am integrating into my life.

The hard part about these items is if I read this a year ago, I would have thought I understand the concepts presented but I have a whole new perspective now that I truly must implement them.

The biggest challenge I face now is once you start scheduling everything there is no room for the old system of putting out fires. My company does not operate in this fashion so I have a gap between my desire to schedule everything and my companies approach to doing business.

I am at a crossroads where I need to integrate the schedule everything system.

Anyway, just wanted to say I like what I see so far and you are in my feed reader.

Have a good one.
