Yesterday a client sent me a ‘manifesto’ on time management and asked me what I thought.
I took a 20-second look and KNEW my client was in deep doo doo if he were to follow this advice.
According to Clarence Thomson, Enneagram Coach, most Time Managment books are written by Enneagram 3s — often compulsive acheivers
And, what works for 3s doesn’t work for other types — e.g. my client who is a 5 and very eclectic.
Those of us who aren’t 3s can’t keep up.
We don’t need to achieve more — harder or faster!
We need to work WITH our own style.
So, next time one of those Time Management Gurus comes your way — run like hell!
