Become Prompt — Eliminate Tardy!

Improve TQ Organize Factor 8F...

"I stay up to date and on time with all my paperwork."

Paperwork (a.k.a. letters, faxes, e-mails, forms, bills, newsletters, invoices, travel receipts, memos, contracts, proposals, time cards, budgets, reports, taxes -- all that stuff that you have to deal with) has to be completed. It has a purpose and a benefit. So organize it once and conquer it! Create a system. Sign it, send it on, file it or do whatever is needed to complete it productively with the least time and effort on your part.

Remember, ORGANIZE is the eighth color in the Time Prism Performance Spectrum because after leveraging your results through others, automating your tasks is the most productive thing you can do.

You CAN achieve your greatest dreams and aspirations. Simply improve your TQ Organize Color.

"If at first you don't succeed; you are running about average." ~ M. H. Alderson

TQ Factor 8F "Thin Line"...

Prompt vs. Tardy is a choice — Your CHOICE!

There's a Thin Line between success and failure. Choose to take Factor 8F more often, and the following POSITIVE characteristics will automatically begin to accumulate and flow into to your performance—moving you TOWARDS the results you want and the success you desire.

Positives     Negatives
 
Prompt
Procedural
Diligent
Timely
Systematic
Punctual
    Tardy
Indecisive
Undisciplined
Procrastinating
Avoiding
Stalled
 

Choose to take this action infrequently, or not at all, and the opposing NEGATIVE traits will dominate your performance and sabotaging your success... moving you AWAY from achieving your goals and aspirations.

Think about it. How much more successful would you be if you were a little MORE Prompt... and a little LESS Tardy?

TQ Factor 8F CONTRIBUTION to your performance...

A high commitment suggests the efficient processing of paperwork is one of your best organizational tools. Knowing that paperwork will never go away, you decided to conquer it. You transformed "paperWORK" into "paperFUN!" You created a powerfully simple system to process each piece of paper that comes your way -- allowing you the freedom to move on to more productive activities.

TQ Factor 8F COST to your performance...

A lack of commitment suggests you may believe that anything is more productive and enjoyable than paperwork. Even the thought of paperwork may drive you crazy -- and your first decision is to put if off. You are a master at "getting ready to get ready." You review each piece numerous times, then organize them into new stacks. These stacks continue to grow from additional notices, repeated requests and required written explanations for why things weren't done the first time you touched it.

TQ Factor 8F BENEFIT: You have more power...

Paperwork is completed in a smooth and efficient manner without undo burden or delay. You accumulate performance positives like "Prompt, Procedural and Diligent" -- immediately moving you towards the results you expect.

FAIL to do TQ Factor 8F: Less Power...

Paperwork takes longer to complete and causes more long-term suffering than necessary. Negatives like "Tardy, Indecisive and Undisciplined" start to take their toll on your performance -- quickly moving you away from the success you want.

"You should call this the Survival Edge..."

I've taken a dozen time management courses and read 20 books on improving my time management and organization skills. This goes WAY beyond anything I could ever hope for. It gave me a serious edge when I came up for my last job review, not to mention the confidence I now have.
