How to Work Faster and Smarter

How to Work Faster and SmarterHow to Work Faster and Smarter Youve heard the saying, work smarter, leid harder, but have you actually figured out how to do so? Being a hard worker is not a bad thingbut working hard all the time can easily lead to feeling burnt out. By training yourself to work smarter and faster, you can do more done at a decent pace and itll lead to an overall improvement in your work quality and balance.Wondering how exactly you can work smarter and faster? Heres what you can do.Joel Runyon, found of Impossible X, writes a lot about what he calls, workplace popcorn. The idea is that you create a list of clear actions (so no vague intentions) that you need to do that day and then break the list up into equal sections based on how long each task would take to complete. You then choose three different locations to work from, whether its different places in your office (if you can move around at work) or if you work from home and can go to three dif ferent coffee shops. You then go to the first spot and complete all of the tasks in section one on your list. Then you go to spots two and do all of the tasks in list two, then spot three and do all of the tasks in list three. Runyon says its important not to drive between each location because its important to get some physical activity in each day, and walking or biking between the locations is a great way to fit some activity into your day.When youve completed everything on your to-do list for the day, you are done working, writes Runyon. Relax, kick back, and live your life . Dont take work home with you because that wont help you get more done it will just wear you out.If the workplace popcorn method doesnt work for your work situation, use the ideas from it to figure out a better structure that works for your personality. fruchtwein people work better when they have some kind of structure or guidelines that help them stay organized. Think about the where and the when of whe n you are most productive and plan your day around that. If you have to answer e-mails and make phone calls, dont just do that that continually throughout the day. Doing so usually slows people down, so you should instead plan out period of time for doing those things and only do them during that time you block off. Finding a way to structure out your day will help you work faster and smarter, so this should be the way you start every day at work.Seriously. If you work long hours and are trying to find time to fit in studying or memorizing something for an upcoming meeting, presentation or test, taking a nap is actually a great idea. When you try to work fast and smart, you need to make sure you get in some breaks to help maintain focus, so a nap is a great idea. In fact, studies show that taking a nap after learning information speeds up the process by which information is retained. Meaning, taking a nap could help you better remember things. The best time to nap, according to re search, is between 1pm and 6pm, which is probably around the time you start to feel exhausted or burnt out anyway, so why not take a nap and use it to your advantage?When we procrastinate , we put tasks off for another time simply because we dont want to do them, even though we have the time. But procrastination is not efficient because were essentially borrowing time for our future, as we will still have to do those things at some point. Many of us put things off because we resent having to do them in the first place especially if we feel like it is someone elses responsibility, writes Lahle Wolfe, founder and CEO of LA Wolfe Marketing. Wolfe suggests that procrastinating often has an emotional attachment which is causing us to avoid doing something as opposed to just being lazy. Maybe you are avoiding having to talk to someone so you continue to put off the task that requires you to do so. Or, maybe you dont think its your job to do something so you are frustrated that you ha ve to do it. In that case, Wolfe suggests assigning the task to the person you think should be doing it, or talk to your boss about it and tell them whom you think the task is better suited for.If you simply dont want to do the task because you hate your job, then its time to find another job. And if youre really just too busy to get to the task, Wolfe advises that you tell your boss no next time you get assigned more work than you can do. If you are really just too busy to get something done then you are not procrastinating - something else is going on. You may need help meeting your work goals or better organizational skills - you may even just need to l earn to say no to new assignments until you are caught up, suggests Wolfe. If you have taken on too much at one time tell your boss, ask someone for help, or sit down and see what tasks you can delegate .And on that note, its time for you to get back to work Its not enough to brainstorm or think about a challenge, you have to buckle down and do. You cant just keep reading articles on how to be more productive or how to work faster and smarter its time for you to go back to work and put these ideas into action Good luck

The Jobs That Bring the Groundhog Day Celebration to Life

The Jobs That Bring the Groundhog Day Celebration to LifeThe Jobs That Bring the Groundhog Day Celebration to LifeThe Jobs That Bring the Groundhog Day Celebration to LifeHes the worlds most famous meteorologist, and he doesnt even have a degree.Each year millions of people tune in to see what Punxsutawney Phil has to say at the Groundhog Day celebration as February 2nd rolls around. The fate of winter is in the little paws of this American icon.And hes a rodent.It was 1887 when Clymer H. Freas, a newspaper editor, first declared Punxsutawney Phil to be the nations foremost weather-predicting groundhog. Since then, Groundhog Day has developed into a widely-recognized tradition in the United States and Canada. Though the tradition has roots that reach back centuries into history, and there are many cities that boast a weather-predicting woodchuck, the small town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania has become the mecca for fans of the late-winter holiday.Thats right. Not only do people tune in online and on TV to see what Phil has to say, but each year thousands also travel to Punxsutawney to witness the spectacle and Groundhog day activities in person. For those who do, Punxsutawney doesnt disappoint. Like most great festivals, it takes more than the star of the show to make it all come together.Here are just a few of the jobs that help bring the magic of the Groundhog Day celebration in Punxsutawney, PA to life each Feb. 2.Executive Director of the Punxsutawney Groundhog ClubIf there is a cornerstone piece to the whole puzzle of a Groundhog Day celebration, this person is it. The executive director of the PGC has the responsibility of bringing all the parts of the celebration together and then making sure it all runs smoothly.The position, currently held by Katie Donald, has to plan the events and Groundhog Day activities that happen as part of the official prognostication at Gobblers Knob, but thats just the start. She also must think about the logistics outside of the actual event buses to handle tourists, safety plans, PR, marketing, vendors, social media, handling the official website, and more.Think of Katies position as the choreographer of this holiday dance shes the one who keeps everyone in step so that the finished product looks effortless.The Inner CircleIf youve ever watched the Groundhog Day activities at Gobblers Knob on television, youve probably seen them. They stand out. The Inner Circle are the guys in the beweglich suits and top hats. But who are they really?The Inner Circle is a group of local dignitaries dedicated to the legend of Punxsutawney Phil. They help to bring the Groundhog Day celebration together and act as the public faces of the event. Made up entirely of volunteers, this group fully embraces the legend and the fun of the holiday.RelatedVolunteering and the Job SearchWhats even cooler is that they each get a cool title like Iceman (currently Butch Philliber) or Thunder Conductor (currently Dave Gigliotti). How fun is that?The president of the Inner Circle is the person who actually listens to Phils prediction, spoken in the ancient language of Groundhogese. This job may sound fun, but it also comes with risk. There have been several cases, in other locations, in which weather-predicting groundhogs have taken a elend-so-friendly nibble of the listeners ear.Punxsutawney Phils HandlersThough Punxsutawney Phil only has to work one day each year for the Groundhog Day activities, he still requires year-round care. Two members of the Inner Circle are designated as Phils handlers, which means the task of caring for the oh-so-important groundhog is up to them.This may be trickier than youd think because Punxsutawney Phil is not your everyday woodchuck hes a serious superstar who is roughly 130 years old. Considering that the average lifespan of a groundhog is only six to eight years, this is a very delicate assignment.Not only do the handlers need to keep Phil comfortable and happy all year long, but each September they also need to give him a sip of the magic elixir that keeps his longevity going. (Before you ask, no, it doesnt work on humans. Its reported to have the opposite effect, sadly.)Phils year-round residence is at the public library. Executive director Katie Donald says that there is a viewing window from outside and one from inside the library as well. The viewing window inside the library is in the Childrens Section. The childrens librarian says that Phil often will sit by the window and listen to stories while she reads them to the kids.The Mayor of PunxsutawneyIn some cities that have their own Groundhog Day celebrations, its the mayor of the city who puts an ear dangerously close to the animal. But because the Inner Circle handles those kinds of official duties, that is not the case at Gobblers Knob.So whats left for the mayor? Well, he gets to conduct the weddings that inevitably occur in Barclay Square each year during the festival. Believe it or not, each year there are several (if not dozens) of weddings for the mayor to conduct.To date, no groom has seen his shadow and ducked away for six weeks before taking the plunge.Punxsutawney Borough and Township EmployeesPunxsutawney, Pennsylvania is a town of approximately 6,000 residents. Each year on Feb. 2, tens of thousands of people flood to Gobblers Knob to see Phil and the announcement. Thats a big influx of people for a small town to handle.That means that public employees such as local police, medical personnel, EMS, and public transportation workers are essential to the festivals success. While they do not work for the festival directly, they keep those thousands of visitors moving, safe, and happy during their visit.VendorsWhat fun would a Groundhog Day celebration be without a funnel cake, hot cocoa, or a wide variety of local crafts to peruse? Each year vendors flock to Punxsutawney to sell their wares to the influx of visitors, and without them, the local stores and restauran ts would have difficulty serving such a large crowd.From burgers and pizza to fun and flavorful oddities, vendors help create the festival atmosphere while also taking pressure off the locally-established businesses.Whether you want winter to last just a little longer or youd rather see it replaced by springs greenery, a trip to Punxsutawney for Groundhog Day could be a lot of fun. If you do go, be sure to take notice of all the people who are diligently working to make your visit a fun and safe one. While there are a few money-making jobs that help create the magic of Groundhog Day, the continuing success is built on the work of volunteers. Be sure to thank one. As they say, it takes a village to raise a groundhog.Want to be a part of the festivities as a volunteer or learn more about Punxsutawney Phil and the legend that is Gobblers Knob? This is where you start.Whether its winter or spring, your resume should always be in season.

First, there are the hours spent sifting through listings and submitting resumes and cover letters then there are the countless applications and miles driving all over town for interviews.Unfortunately, in addition to the usual struggles, individuals with disabilities have a particularly difficult time, as they fight misconceptions from potential employers about what it means to hire someone with a disability. These misconceptions contribute to the 83 percent of individuals with disabilities who are unemployed .The good news is that the right know-how can help overcome stereotypes and unconscious biases held by potential employers, and improve your chances of being selected for your dream position.One of the most important things to do is continue to focus on what you can do, not what you cant. This includes emphasizing the skills and abilities you bring to the position, as any aspiring job candidate does. A common question is whether you should disclose your disability when you apply for a job. In most cases, its better to delay sharing this information until youre further along in the job placement process.

Instead, you can explain that youve dealt with some personal things in the interim, and now you are ready to hit the ground running. Even if you have been out of work for some time while you dealt with your condition, you have the potential to bring a fresh perspective and the same reliable, responsible approach from your old career to this new one.Oftentimes, the only things needed to maximize your potential at work are a few adjustments. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires employers to make these reasonable accommodations for those experiencing disabilities, but many organizations are concerned about the time and money required to make such adjustments. Fortunately, for an accommodation to be considered reasonable, it must not cause undue hardship to the organization, financial or otherwise, and employers have often found th at these accommodations are very affordable - sometimes even free.Understand that its unlawful for employers to discriminate against you because of your disability. In general, employers are aware that you have a legal right to request these adjustments, but you can share this information if your potential employer is unaware. A simple phrase to start out the conversation is, Im excited to be a part of your team, and Ill need to request an accommodation in order to perform at my best.Help him or her understand that creating a disability-friendly workplace can be affordable and not all that difficult. Perhaps all you need to be at your most comfortable and productive are flexible working hours or work-from-home arrangements. Even outside the realm of disability accommodation, remote working arrangements are becoming increasingly popular - even the norm - across a number of industries. If it seems appropriate for the position, you may have the opportunity to offer to create a d isability-friendly workspace at home. This could ensure the company sees lower costs and may make your application a little mora attractive. Its possible youve already been considering a way to balance your specific needs with the work you want to do. Keep an eye out for opportunities to create these openings in collaboration with your new employer.Let your potential employer know that youre comfortable staying on top of projects and managing a heavy, diverse task load even when working remotely. Working in your ideal environment, tailored to your own particular needs, and uniquely oriented to the demands of your position, cuts expenses for employers and maximizes productivity overall . Other common accommodations include an accessibility device like a ramp or handrail, adjustable desks, monitor screens, cable management systems, color-coded keyboards, screen reader software and sign language apps.No one wants to feel like theyre placing a burden on their employer, so it can be di fficult to have the types of conversations necessary to receive the accommodations you need. The way you communicate with your potential supervisor is important for maintaining good relations and facilitating a positive outcome for all parties involved. Job-seeking with a disability isnt always easy. But with perseverance and a willingness to engage employers on their terms, you can win the fight against stereotypes and misconceptions. The rewards will be more than worth it in the end. Paula Morgan is a Return to Work Case Manager at Allsup Employment Services .

3 Ways to Get Your Manager to, Well, Manage

3 Ways to Get Your Manager to, Well, Manage3 Ways to Get Your Manager to, Well, ManageSomewhere, in a far-off land of mythical management training 101, managers everywhere are being told not to micromanage. Its being drilled into their heads, as we speak, that they cant hover, they cant nitplektron, they need to be hands-off.While that may sound like a dream come true, the reality is that sometimes we need a manager to, well, manage. And after all this training, some managers tend to have a hard time recognizing when their team needs a helping hand. Fortunately, Ive been on both sides of this fence before and have some insight on how to motivate your manager to get the hint when you need a little managerial guidance.1. Spell it OutI know. It seems a bit obvious, doesnt it? Well, believe it or not, sometimes we all need a giant, flashing, billboard to get the hint, and managers are no different. Especially if you happen to be at the senior level. I experienced this myself late in my c areer, when everyone on my team was highly skilled with decades of experience under our belts. It would be easy to assume that none of us needed any guidance, but that would be a mistake- one my boss made over and over again. Until I finally made it clear to him I needed some help. All the usual signs a manager picks up on to recognize an employee needing some guidance (my seemingly non-stop litany of colorful language, for example, shouldve been a dead giveaway) hadnt made a dent. My boss just couldnt that see I was struggling. Eventually, rather than continuing to suffer in silence, I pulled him aside and filled him in. He was completely surprised and, as Id suspected, hadnt picked up on any of the not-so-subtle clues Id been leaving for him. Whether he was truly that oblivious or just had other pressing priorities on his plate, who knows, but in any case, he needed it spelled out, word for word. Having to call attention to yourself, especially when you need help, isnt easy, but w hen you make it clear what you need, chances are your boss will spring into action. If you do it the right way, of course. On that note2. Respect the EgoThis may sound a bit off, but trust me, when youre dealing with managers- with anyone, really- egos are at play, and they need to be respected. (Managing is not often listed as one of the top ego-boosters of all time.)The last time I had to approach a manager about his lack of managing, this knowledge helped me immensely. We were both fairly well established in our careers, so criticism of any kind wasnt exactly part of our daily repertoire. Realizing that he might be sensitive to feedback helped remind me that there was a strong chance hed take whatever I was saying personally, hed get defensive, and Id seriously reduce my chances of getting the outcome I was hoping for. Once I had that perspective, I could approach my manager in a way I imagine he probably approached me many times in the past with kindness and sensitivity to how m y feedback would be interpreted. (i.e., Instead of saying Youre not really supporting me on the Smith account as much as Id like, I could try, It would be great to pick your brain regarding the Smith account. Ive been struggling with how to handle it, and your expertise would really help me out.) And guess what? It worked beautifully. When I considered all the things my manager probably thought of before approaching me, I could easily recognize how my constructive feedback (a.k.a. a cry for help) would be viewed and adjust appropriately. 3. Ask QuestionsOf course, sometimes there isnt a specific issue or question that needs attention. Sometimes, we just need managers to manage. So, how exactly do you remind your manager that he or she is missing a few steps?I learned this lesson on my first stint as a manager. By nature, Im pretty hands-off, and I had told my team as much, but made sure they knew they could always come to me with questions. The problem was, no one ever did.Then, one afternoon, one of my star employees started chatting with me as we were making our rounds during a coffee break. He started to ask me questions about a particular procedure we had just implemented, like, How do we update the system once Ive approved the transaction? or What do I do if the transaction is rejected? These were all tasks I thought had been clearly outlined in the training materials, but after a few minutes, it became clear that not only was he having a pretty hard time getting it right, but that the entire team was struggling, too. Sometimes, when it isnt a clear path to just spell it out (or its just too awkward to do so), asking questions is a subtle way to hint to your manager that you (or your full team) may need some extra guidance- without having to make it super obvious.It worked for me After that, I made a regular practice of checking in with each of my employees to see what questions they had for me. Over time, they became more comfortable asking, and I did a better job managing them as a result. The nice thing about this approach is that it works whether youre a manager or the one seeking managingJust about everyone needs some guidance from time to time, and occasionally, managers need a little special help themselves. Try these approaches to help your manager recognize when you need his or her expertise, and youll both be proud of how you managed the situation.Photo of feet on desk courtesy of Shutterstock.
