Focused Calendaring

Geek out on planners and calendars and work on getting things set up for the next quarter during this live virtual retreat. Meggin – along with other planner souls – will be there sharing ideas and energy as they think about the upcoming quarter and get their calendars/planners set up.

What Do You Need to Leave Behind?

Take an authentic look at your “stuff” in this class and step more lightly and move more nimbly. Having less “stuff” to schlep around gives you more freedom. Life is easier.

Workspace Hostility

Hostility is rooted in something that happened in the past – often many years ago. If you think you might have some anger that has gone past its expiration date and would be appropriately labeled as hostility, this unique experience will give you ways to recover energy you may not have known was missing.

Declutter & Destress for Academics

If you are stressed and ready to reduce your stress (NOW!), then you are going to love the ideas presented in this straightforward and practical webinar. You’ll learn a dozen specific strategies to start reducing your stress by dealing deliberately with your clutter. Expect to be inspired to take action on what you learn.

What’s Balanced for You?

You know when things are out of whack. You know the feeling when there is too much (too much work, too many demands, an overabundance of responsibilities). And you know how it feels to have too little. Let’s spend a session together applying the Goldilocks Strategy so you can authentically, truthfully, and courageously establish an academic life that is “just right.”

Policies for Academics

Policies are strategically crafted statements that establish boundaries for your time, energy, and attention, which are your most precious assets as an academic. If your attention and focus feel fractured, and if you feel overwhelmed with too much to do and too little time, then let’s help you craft some policies. This class will teach you concepts that will carry you through the rest of your career.

Focus & Efficiency

You probably hear people say, “I really need to focus.” But have you ever heard someone say, “I want to be able to ruthlessly focus and be aggressively efficient!”? Did you even know this was an option? It is! In this focused and efficient webinar, you will learn super specific tactics for setting yourself up to focus ruthlessly when you need to and be aggressively efficient when that’s called for.

Mindset Change

You change from one day to the next. And, most academics make at least one significant change during their career – and likely more. In this class we will talk about the physical, mental, and emotional baggage that you may still be carrying around from a previous part of your life. 

Delegating

In this class we will look at the specifics of what it means to delegate in the academic environment. You will examine some of your mindsets and some of your practices to see what can be adjusted so you can do some academic decluttering of your tasks, projects, responsibilities, and commitments by using the delegation ideas you’ll learn in the class. 

Decision Making

You will explore the tangle of undecided, unsettled, and unsolved situations in your academic life. This tangle of dissonance, discrepancy, and discord drain time, energy, and attention that could well be invested in other places. You will learn where to look, how to find, and what to do to bring resolution and peace to areas that have been “bugging you” on some level. As always, let’s get together for some truth-telling.

Class Series for Academics

Academic clutter includes those things that constrain or otherwise impede your growth, such as physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual detritus. However, be very clear that academic clutter is about so much more than the “stuff” you have physically or virtually lying around. It’s time to shed the s**t you’re schlepping around.

Writing

The 30 Articles in Just 30 Days Self-paced, Self-study Program gives you the structure and instruction to be able to write 300- to 1000-word articles easily and quickly. You can drop the stress and anxiety and instead find yourself writing regularly – and very possibly – even enjoying it!

Project Planning

Do you have 1 or 10 or 100 projects that are unfinished – and you REALLY wish they were complete? Does looking at your to-do list make you feel overwhelmed and maybe even despondent? If you apply what you learn in this class, you will get clear on what your projects are; be able to ask for (and receive) help, assistance, and support on your projects; and finish your projects… even those that have been “lingering” for weeks, months, or years.

Calendaring

If your calendar seems much too full for a quick class, then may I suggest you sign up for the first stand-alone webcast in the academic decluttering series. We will get to the learning, the actions, and the mindsets about your calendar quickly. You will receive actionable suggestions to get you out of calendar chaos today.
