Are We Just Too Busy??? - How to Manage your Energy vs. your Time
Event Information
Description
Ah...the busy life! It's an epidemic.
We seem to live in a culture where "being busy" is the new norm, even a badge of honor.
But are we fulfilled? And do we feel accomplished and in control?
Eliminating 'busyiness' may seem like an elusive dream, but too busy equals less productivity and more stress (true fact!).
Being too busy also creates a disorganized mind and leaves us less emotionally available for our friends and family. It's also what we are modeling for our children.
So, if your answer to "how are you?" is a version of "I've been so busy", please join us for our February (free) Lunch and Learn featuring author, international speaker, and professional trainer, Jackie Woodside, CPC, LICSW.
Jackie will share practical strategies from her highly acclaimed book, Calming the Chaos, for how we can:
- Get more done and feel better about it
- End procrastination and improve our scheduling priorities
- Manage our energy vs. our time (hint: there is no such thing as 'time management'!)
We all have to make a conscious choice of how we spend our time. Jackie will help us discover the peace of mind that comes with the shift from being chronically busy to meaningfully productive.

Organizer of Are We Just Too Busy??? - How to Manage your Energy vs. your Time
The StudyPro was created to fill a gap in the world of student learning.
Lots of smart students do well academically, yet struggle with managing increasingly rigorous coursework and homework demands. The skills required to manage these demands --and to become independent and effective learners --aren’t fully taught in school, but the expectation is that students have mastered them. These skills are known as Executive Function Skills.
Many students are challenged with some aspect of the "content" of school (i.e. math, science, foreign language, etc.) but others have to work more on the "process" of school (i.e. managing work, turning in assignments, persevering through frustration, organizing time and materials, etc.)
This is where The StudyPro comes in. We help students build the critical "process" competencies that they need to succeed now, as well as to face the challenges of college, the workplace and life.
