Time Management ... why there's no such thing

  We can't 'manage' time; but we can manage ourselves You hear so much about 'time management' , there's 1000's of courses dedicated to the subject.  In reality though, we can't 'manage' time, it's going to pass regardless, the same 24 hours every day.  However, we CAN   'manage' ourselves, our tasks and our interruptions each day.   We have a love / hate relationship with time depending on what we are doing at that moment, we complain when it goes too fast, too slow, we blame external factors and other people for 'wasting our time' .

I've been thinking about ageism quite a lot recently and how it can affect us, and no, before you accuse ME of being ageist, I'm also referring to how it affects young people too.  In fact, it can affect many age groups - children, teenagers, adults, senior citizens.  Obviously, most of this blog will feature on ageism from my point of view and the age I am now because that's simply where I'm at right now. Think back to when you first started out in your career, no doubt you were anxious, nervous, self-conscious and worried that you wouldn't be taken seriously and that other people would think you had no experience or knowledge As you get older, you start to experience very similar feelings, anxious, nervous, self-conscious and worried that people will also be thinking you've lost your drive and ambition and that you're not up-to-speed with how fast technology is moving and such like. Before I started in my current role, I went for an interview at another co...
