New time management Holiday | Is Now Your Time?
Join me on a working holiday.

I’ve been slaving away on writing projects for the past few months whilst touring Thailand (oh the hardships). But 3 days ago I hit a personal crisis. And it has led me to invite you on a ‘virtual holiday’ to Thailand. Let me explain.
The trip will be dedicated to time management.

Here’s the short version:

How to balance work with rest
How to develop the physical and emotional energy to sustain your self for successful time management
What you should do morning till night to maintain a fast pace focus on the things you want and need to do
The precise way to prioritize activities so you get everything done
And 30 days more material…

Reply to me (contact Nathan via http://www.nathanshaw.name/contact/) if you want details on how you can come virtually via the Internet for a 30 day time management Holiday. Or first you can read below if you want the colourful description of how this came about…

I am going to a tropical paradise. A beautiful diving island with clear waters, coral and tropical sea creatures.

The activities I will be doing include physical health; me ntal and intellectual development, and business-like time-management. I’ll show you a list of the activities later but here’s the important thing for you…

I’ve got my holiday activities organized with no problem. But there is a vast difference between being organized for success, and actually doing everything we are organized for to maximize our productivity, satisfaction, and fun.

Little demons attack us. They steal our energy, our mindfulness, our motivation. They distract us, and leave us procrastinating, unclear of priorities, with limited ti me , etc. Much of the time we don’t even relaize those demons are draining us of productivity.

I am ashamed to say that for the last 4 days, whilst watching the Middle East news coverage, I have been sucked into watching way too much TV. (And I bla me the demons of course).

Whilst being so organized with my life that I can easily spend the tim e doing whatever I want, watching TV is just NOT what I want. Yet I found myself sitting infront of the idiot box for a few hours a day - 4 days in a row.

Well it got me depressed. I had a restless night. Tossing and turning in bed. So I got up. Standing on the 19th floor apartment balcony, I watched Bangkok cities twinkling lights… asking myself what motivated me to waste my time. I realized that because my life right now is so efficient and organized, I’ve beco me lazy!

“Work has a habit of filling the ti me available to it”
I do feel ‘busy’, I have been working atleast 10 hours a day. But it’s almost an excuse for not doing as much as I know I can. I’m procrastinating on my life’s passions and the adventures and success I can have. Why?

It’s fascinating for me that I would sacrifice doing the things I love, for something such as watching TV which puts me in a low state, and leaves me feeling bored, empty and in a bad mood.

I felt lazy and unproductive. That’s the most personally hurtful thing I experience.

Standing on that balcony at 3am I thought of some places I could be for fun instead of infront of my apartment T V. I could be at a Salsa dancing class which I keep meaning to do, at Ocean World Aquarium, shopping at the famous Bangkok Siam Paragon, in a Thai Karaoke den with friends, meditating, reading, walking and talking under moon light with someone beautiful. Or doing what I love most… working on my writing, internet and seminar projects.

So I realized what I must do. And I want you to benefit from it too Nathan.

I’ve decided to take a 30 day trip to push back the evil demons of procrastination and take back control of my time.

Together we’re going to squash the procrastination demon, the low energy demon, the how to prioritize demon, and all the rest. I will give you my time management Lattice (the strategy I teach my clients for time management).

And I will share with you my 30 day deep psychological investigation into WHY procrastination occurs.

If you would like to take part in my working month holiday and not only learn, but actually apply my time management strategy that I will be focusing on, refining, and helping you with, then reply to me right now and ask for the time management Holiday details.

I hope to be ready for the trip in about 2 weeks. So our month together will start soon.
