I usually help various co-workers on assignments around the office. Should I submit a log to my boss every week, listing my input around the office? I just want him to know that I am being productive or should I just continue to keep quiet and do my work? When my boss comes over to my desk, it’s obvious that I am working on something and I am being productive, this is not high school. Why should I provide him with a weekly log? My boss did not request a weekly log. However, my performance review mentioned a problem with prioritizing assignments and meeting deadlines and I don’t think he realize how much work I have and why I can’t meet deadlines. I think If I presented a weekly productivity log will just give him another reason to be bossy, annoying and nag the h*ll out of me. I already feel like I am being watched CAREFULLY, something like a fish in a fish bowl.

I’m in college and I’m a really good student. I do well on my tests and papers. I’ve always been an A student. But since I got to college, I struggle to keep my GPA at a 3.0. Why? I’m so unorganized as far as time management. I try so hard to stop procrastinating but for some reason I can’t. I miss a lot of class because I can never get up early in the morning, so even though I score really high on my exams, my grades come down because my attendance is poor and sometimes I don’t hand my homework in because I oversleep and miss class! I know it sounds stupid but this is a serious problem. I think it’s because in high school, my mom used to spoil me and wake me up when it was time to get ready for school. Now that I don’t have that luxury, and being a night person, I find it so difficult to get up for class. I’m always up really late doing my work and studying. Any suggestions on how to break this awful cycle before I ruin my life??

I work in NYC and live in Connecticut it is about a 1 hr and 15 min train ride each way and about a 10 block walk to work each way. I work about 10 hours a day so by the time I come home I am exhausted, and it is time to go to bed after dinner. I really need to lose some lbs and get fit any suggestion on how I can find to work out?

I am having trouble with time management. There are some people who seem to be really organised and tidy, and then there are us. Those who are organised also seem happier and more “in control”, so, those who are organised, what do you guys do??

My firm specialises in executive search and recruitments for the middle and senior management positions. We’re planning to add a branch office at a new location. To begin with it will have a single recuiter and depending upon how business goes, we will add more. My question is what should a single recruiter do to achieve maximum billing? What should be the overall strategy? How should he position himself in the market? Should a single recruiter do more middle positions (as there are numbers) or should he do more senior positions? or should he do both? Should he specialise in a single domain and make all his database specific to that domain or industry? or should do he do fresh research for the positions that he receives from the client side? We work on a lot of senior positions in multiple domains. In such cases, profiles are not available in the database and most of the time, we have to do fresh research specifically catering to the need of that position. The billings are decent being senior positions, but it takes time to close, the process is slow. After client has selected his choice of candidate, we are left with a pipeline of senior candidates that goes waste and we’re unable to use them. My question is how can a single recruiter achieve maximum billing, increase productivity and be able to place the maximum out of his database and his research. Should he focus on single domain or multiple domain, middle or senior levels, how many number of clients should he handle at a time? Please share your experience, views and observations.

Are there any books or suggestions for time management. I prob shouldnt be on the internet! That could be one issue! But, I have a 20 month old child and work and I also want to include going to the gym. I feel like there arent enough hours in the day? Maybe there are but Im doing things slow and relaxing rather than doing what I need to do. Any suggestions? Stories? Thanks!
