Ten Easy Ways to Slow Down in Business*
Business runs at a fast pace. You need to consider ways in which
you can comfortably slow down. Because slowing down is
good for you and ultimately your business performance too...
You work better when your pace is slower. It gives
you the time to invest in others; in yourself. And it doesn't
mean you are underperforming - on the contrary, there are many
ways you will be better at what you do.
After all what are deadlines really? How many things in life can
survive if you leave them till the next day. The answer, of
course, is most of them. And some will be even
better if you do!
Here are ten great ideas to help you get back the space
you crave for and will definitely benefit from...
1. Meet Others Fully
If you are having a one-to-one meeting with someone, take the
time out to spend the time with them - fully. It will
give you an opportunity to relax and get more from the
interaction. Building the relationship to both your benefits.
2. Focus on One Thing
When you are on the phone, be on the phone. Doing more
than one thing makes both be done badly. So checking e-mails at
the same time is not a good thing - and often, the person on the
other end can tell as well when you are distracted by something
else.
3. Take Time to Eat
Two things here. Take a proper break when you can eat in peace,
sitting down. And when you are eating take the time to
chew slowly, aiming for 20 times per mouthful. It helps you
relax and helps digestion (not to mention reducing the
likelihood of overeating).
4. Appreciate Slack
By celebrating at having 'nothing to do' for an hour, you will
truly shift your mindset. In fact it is likely if you dump a few
'shoulds' you will enable your brain to become highly creative.
With some of this time you could take the time to read
'Slack' by Tom DeMarco.
5. Prioritise Well
As yourself this, 'If I only had half the time today, what would
be the most useful to do. You can certainly dump the
rest. There are definitely things that all of us do that are
quite valueless. It's OK to accept that, but recognise them for
what they are
6. Take a Break
Remembering to take your vacations; to attend your child's
school play; surprising your partner by getting
home early. all
these will make a big difference, not just to others, but leave
you refreshed and balanced. And balance ensures you can do a
great job when you need to.
7. Overestimate
By looking at the time you take to do things and becoming more
than realistic, you will set more do-able expectations. 'More
than realistic' is about achieving a small number of
things and then stopping, within any timescale you set yourself.
That time is then yours, a gift to yourself.
8. Have a Cut-off
Many people try to cram so much in it makes them late which adds
to their frustration and personal pressure. So have a cut off
point where you will do no more - no last minute 'I can just fit
that in' sessions.
This will enable you not only to get where you should be when
you should be, but, hey presto, you can appreciate the journey
too. For a more thorough application of this principle,
check-out Mark Forster's excellent book, 'Get Everything Done
and Still Have Time to Play'.
9. Be a Model
Showing others how to get a life can be profound for them. Your
people follow your behaviours, so by showing them you don't need
to be in the fast lane all the time, that slowing down is not
just OK, but a 'good thing', will do them a favour, as well as
you.
10. Realise your Dreams
You have but one life and it passes so quickly. Make the time to
access those dreams you wish you had achieved years ago. Walk on
cool grass with no shoes on, like Richard Gere did in 'Pretty
Woman'. Take that trip to Australia that you've always
wanted - even a few personal days of 'me time'. Who knows when
the time will be right if you don't do it now?
Slowing down is the new 'strong', rather that the
ill-defined weakness corporate life has determined for us.
Often the pace set for us is the choice of others - it's time to
get real and slow down.
