Better Planning - how to stop work overload

You are overloaded, overcommitted, overextended and in deep trouble. Sounds familiar?

We’ve all been there one time or another, but if you are there constantly, then we hope this informative series of articles will help you out.

Today we are going to look at Why we find ourselves in a pickle - again.

Before looking at ways to solve this problem, we need to understand the cause. One reason is called ‘The Planning Fallacy’ and you can read the whole article here: http://bigthink.com/in-their-own-words/why-you-cant-plan

In short though - our estimates for how long any project or task will take is very bad. We base our estimates unrealistically on thinking there will be no problems, no bad traffic, and no delays. We see ourselves as superhumans and am often overconfident. We base our estimates on ‘the typical amount of time’, but forget that each project is unique with its own challenges. The more steps that are involved with a project or task, makes it even more likely to take an incorrect estimate of the time involved, and that is how you end up overloaded, overcommitted and running out of time, again and again.

Stay tuned for the remainder of our series, helping you with Better Planning.

For now, we’ll help you with one quick solution though: Use the services of a qualified accountant to help you save time when you are overcommitted.

A study conducted by Hal Ersner-Hershfield (http://scan.oxfordjournals.org/content/4/1/85.full) indicates that our brain sees our future self as a stranger, and therefore has less empathy for that person.

By cultivating empathy for that future self, you will make wiser choices as you know that the decisions you make now, will affect that future self.

Visualise yourself in the future, apply mindfulness meditation, put yourself in the shoes of that person who looks like you, but now has to face financial problems because of the decisions you took, or did not take, today.

Steve from SGCO Accounting’s main focus is on optimising wealth, and financial health. He will help you with tax planning, consulting and administration, so you can look that future self in the eyes, and know you took the right steps, today.
