Just Suppose...

It’s sometimes useful to play a game of make-believe, and this is particulary relevant when one is dealing with the future from the perspective of the present, as when thinking about how best to manage one’s time.

So, just suppose for a minute that you have no resistance to your work at all. All you have to do is to decide what to do next and you can do it without a moment’s hesistation or reluctance. 

For most of us that is probably quite an unlikely scenario. But if your fairy godmother waved her magic wand over you and all your resistance disappeared for ever, what then?

Would you still need some sort of time management system?

If so, what would such a time management system look like?

Would you take on more work or less work?

Would you stay in the same work or move to something different?

Would you have more or less leisure time?

Would having no resistance result in your having more or less focus?

Would your lack of resistance tempt you to take on work which is beyond your skills?
