ACTION PRESENTS:<br />
Managing Time, Not Chaos<br />
Getting organized is one thing Staying organized is another. Many<br />
people have a general idea of what they need to achieve, but have<br />
settled into a routine without taking the time to periodically review<br />
<strong>and</strong> reorganize, while others have not taken the time to even consider<br />
what comes at them on a day to day basis. Join us as we spend time<br />
developing skills meant to maintain organization not just a temporary<br />
fix to the chaos. We will discuss time management, prioritization, <strong>and</strong><br />
organization that ease stress <strong>and</strong> allow you more time to enjoy life.<br />
