Like most people I know the pain of
procrastination! I put things off until the very last minute watching the
deadline loom closer and closer. I knew it was causing me stress and anxiety
and hurting my self-esteem. I had great intentions, set goals, made resolutions
and regularly made “to do” lists only to match them with excuses why they
couldn’t be achieved!
Was I lazy or needed more will power? I
knew I didn’t lack focus or motivation. Well-meaning family and friends gave me
advice on time management and planning but I know that wasn’t the challenge
either. Like so many people I sailed
through some tasks with ease and other tasks caused me hours of delay. Why did some tasks get pushed to the back
burner, knowing it caused me wasted time, missed opportunities, stress and
anxiety?
Through the skills of Emotional
Intelligence I learnt that procrastination is a direct result of the emotional
connection we have to the task at hand. I have been so lucky to learn this simple
technique that can put an end to procrastination. I’m so excited and want to
help as many people as possible put an end to procrastination.
Please join me for a very fun, interactive
and engaging workshop – its only 90 mins long and the cost is only $10. Don’t’
make any more excuses J Register today or call 519 754 7199 for more details.

About Lorraine
What does it take to be fulfilled in your
professional and personal life? Over the
last few years, I’ve come to understand that “success” isn’t achieved through
academia, learnt knowledge or specialized skills. Fulfillment comes from an
honest understanding of our authentic ourselves and the emotions that drive us.
The ability to cultivate meaningful relationships with our true selves and those
around us –comes from our Emotional Intelligence.
Emotional Intelligence
enables us to live with intention, purpose, and authenticity and affects the
quality of our lives by influencing our behavior and relationships. Emotional Intelligence develops your self-awareness, self-management
and helps to build meaningful relationships.
I believe passionately that when we
understand the emotions that drive us, we can achieve so much more in both our
personal and professional life. It is
only by understanding our emotions, thoughts, beliefs and values that we can
turn negative self-talk into positive goals and actions. I hope I can help you connect
with your emotions and balance your head and heart thinking to bring you closer
to the joy and happiness you both desire and deserve.
