Time Management Coaching in a Nutshell

Beat procrastination and get more done in less time with the help of a time management coach who will help you squeeze every last drop of potential out of every day.

There is nothing more daunting than the thought that you never have enough time. You work long hours and complete your tasks, yet the feeling that you are still not doing enough nags away at you.

I know what it feels like. I’ve been there. I’ve struggled with time management in the past, and it wasn’t until I took control that I was able to fulfil my potential.

Stop whinging. Stop blaming others. Stop looking for excuses. And most of all, stop trying to improve the results you’re delivering simply by throwing more hours at the problem.

Whatever the root causes of your poor time management happen to be, I can help you address them. But you’ll need to take accountability. You got yourself into this position, so only you can get yourself out of it.

Maybe you have trouble meeting your deadlines, and it feels like you can never deliver your work on time. Perhaps your obsession with spending every spare minute in the office simply to keep up with your peers is gradually breaking down the relationships you hold dearest.

The issue is simple: You lack the time management skills to get the most out of your potential. My approach to time management coaching begins with an initial assessment, which is completely free. If you’re ready to stop looking for excuses and start looking for solutions, contact me today to book your initial discovery meeting.

Level Up From Busy To Productive.

Time: Mother Nature’s Most Precious Asset.

Not one for procrastination, I want to get right to the point. I’ve developed a time management strategy that works, and it involves not spending too much time explaining myself. So, let’s start with a few simple questions.

  • Do you long for more hours during the day?
  • Do you describe yourself as perpetually busy and overwhelmed?
  • Do you feel constant time pressure?
  • Do you keep missing deadlines?

If the answer to any of those questions is yes, then you might be in the same situation as a lot of my clients at the beginning of their journey with me.

Time Management Coach

Maybe it’s time to start working with a professional time management coach.

Maintaining high levels of productivity and focus every day is a difficult task, but there are ways to maximise your performance and maintain it in the long term. As your time management coach, my job is to guide and assist you in setting up plans and strategies to ensure that all your tasks are completed on a timely basis.

No, I don’t mean working longer hours or sacrificing time with your family. That’s counterproductive. Time management coaching involves helping you make the most out of every minute. There are many ways to achieve that goal, including prioritising tasks and learning when and how to say “no”.

I will introduce you to a set of techniques and proven processes that have helped numerous of my clients. These techniques will help you manage your time more efficiently, achieve more, and become more productive than ever before.

But before you read on, I must warn you that I’m not like other time management coaches. I don’t accept excuses – I simply don’t have time for that bu****it. I have my own businesses to focus on, as well as other time management clients.

But if you’re ready to quit moaning and channel that energy into improving your work-life balance, I’m prepared to help. Book your free discovery consultation today to get started.

What Is Time Management Coaching?

Secret: You can’t manage time; you have to manage yourself!

We live during times that demand high productivity and focus in a stressful environment. Most people struggle to find a proper work-life balance while still advancing in their careers.

The world seems to spin just a bit faster for all of us, and it is common to feel pressured by time.

This is where time management coaches step in to help their clients better manage their priorities and develop time investment skills that involve the more effective use of every minute of the day.

Whether you just want to be more productive, are thinking about a career change, or starting your own business, time can be both your friend and your enemy.

My job as your time management coach isn’t to tell you how to manage your time; it involves giving you the resources and motivation to do it yourself.

It’s amazing what we can achieve when there’s a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. In this case, that pot of gold is the life you’ve always dreamed of.

How to Improve Your Time Management Skills

For starters, you have to take responsibility and accountability. Then, you have to drop your defensive guard. Yes, I might hit you with a few truth bombs during our coaching sessions, but it’s not personal. In fact, it’s the opposite. I want my clients to improve their time management skills…I want them to find fulfilment. That’s one of the reasons I’m often abrupt and direct.

Time management coaching is the solution to these particular problems. It’s a guidance and support system that leads you to time freedom, helps you improve your overall success rate, and enables you to complete tasks and achieve results in less time.

Time management coaching sessions will help you keep procrastination to a minimum, eliminate low-value activities, and free up many hours of your time. Better time management can have a positive influence on anybody and everybody.

The Benefits of Working With a Time Management Coach

Working with a time management coach has many potential benefits for every individual. Usually, the most important advantage is an improvement in the work-life balance, which helps you clarify your priorities.

Time management also helps you erase the feeling of being overloaded and overwhelmed, which leads to lower stress levels and a healthier lifestyle. Cooperation with a coach will also enable you to change busy work into effective work and improve your effectiveness. It will take you away from poor time management habits and help you become a productivity beast!

Time management coaching also helps you to regain control over your day and discourages procrastination. Have more time for everything you love to do, rejuvenation, and achieving your goals.

You feel frustrated at your inability to achieve your goals because you’re not getting the results your effort warrants. Guess what: This isn’t about hard work or effort—it’s about working more effectively and deciding what and what isn’t worthy of your time.

Time Management Skills and Techniques You Will Learn To Improve Your Business and Personal Life

These skills are important to anybody who wants to succeed in both their professional and personal life. During our coaching sessions, I will introduce you to a number of time management tips that will improve your prioritisation and organisational skills. Here are just a few of them:

  • Using a time log to assess your current productivity levels and daily priorities
  • Discover the ABCDE system of creating priorities, and learn what is truly important
  • Explore the Salami system of dealing with feeling overwhelmed
  • Learn how to use daily, monthly, and yearly planners effectively
  • Get rid of your key misuses of time and create new behavioural patterns that will help you reach your goals faster.

My Clients Say

Before my coaching sessions with Jake, I was in a terrible position. My relationship was in a bad state, my feelings and sense of self-worth were very low, and I was barely able to stay emotionally stable. I hated my job and my whole life. However, since working with Jake, I’ve become much stronger, my self-belief went through the roof, and I know how valuable I am. I have found a company I love to work for, and my relationships with others are much more profound and exciting.

Tina Patel – Lawyer

Jake is a fantastic coach who gets to the core of the issues excellently. He helped me to take drastic steps (they were needed!), which brought me a massive shift in my business and my family life. Now, I work less, earn double that I used to and have more time for my kids. What I like about Jake is that he can be straightforward if needed and when necessary. He is not afraid to ask the difficult (fundamental) questions when the situation calls for them. An outstanding return on investment! Thank you, Jake. See you again soon.

Peter Barnes – Entrepreneur

When I started coaching with Jake, I was in the darkest depths of my relationship, my business, and my entire life. I was a walking shadow, and I couldn’t see any light at the end of the tunnel… However, Jake helped me to turn everything around and put me on the right tracks. His coaching helped me to change how I can see the world. The impact it has had on my business and personal life is priceless. His business ideas are so easy to implement and at the same time very powerful!

Ben C. – Business owner

Jake’s work as a coach has had tremendously positive feedback on my life. I feel like a different person. Working with Jake has helped me to concentrate on my vision, goals and the essential ACTIONS! Without a doubt, he has helped me achieve more in a few months than I did in the last five years. I am a different person now compared to when I initially started my coaching sessions with Jake.

Neil Coker – Founder and CEO

The only thing I can say is a “huge thank you, Jake”! I already had the right tools in place to create a good income. However, Jake added a few missing puzzles to my plan and helped me accelerate my income tremendously in just a few weeks. He could see what I was missing and helped me to make the right decisions and changes. It wasn’t always easy, but it was worth it.

Denise Green – Peak Performance Coach

Jake helped me change my life when I felt lost. I decided to work with him because I wanted to change my career path. With his genuine personality and sense of humour, I instantly connected with him. He helped me find my new way, and I am now doing what I always wanted to do, but wasn’t brave enough to try. Jake believed in me when I doubted every action and feeling I had. He pushed me to my limits, so I had to break them, and to my surprise, I did.

Jake offers an excellent service. It is incomplex and at the same time full of wisdom. He was able, in a straightforward way, to help me find my inner truth. At the same time, he inspires, not only through his fantastic support, faith, and confidence but also with his contagious vibrancy and beautiful personality. My self-belief and determination have soared. I can honestly say since coaching with Jake, my life has never been lovely. I wholeheartedly recommend him as your life coach!

Mary Larson – Doctor

Jake! The only thing I can say is THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! You have changed my life for the better. Finally, I feel like I am alive. Thank you for showing me that I can do what I always wanted to do.

Romario Ramirez – Business owner, Speaker & Artist

Jake is a great coach. My sessions with him were fantastic and open minded. I thought I knew a lot, but he gave a lesson that we can not ever stop learning and getting better. Jake is very intelligent, alert and unique. He looks through people to find the right path for everyone he works with. He is very experienced and I’m truly grateful for the support he gave us to work through this troubling time. He is definitely made for being a life coach.

Steven P. – COO of a large corporation

Working with Jake gave me tremendous confidence and motivation. He is an excellent coach, and I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for one. He took me from talented but with a lack of confidence and self-belief to a bold athlete. He has taught me to dream big dreams, aim to the top and to be the best. Now I am interested only in the 1st place – second place is the first place among the last ones.

Shaun T. – Athlete

Getting a coach was one of my best decisions in life! If you are hesitating, please STOP! In my case in a few short months, I went from procrastinating and agonising over taking my next step, to putting myself out there and succeeding! It was an amazing and profound experience. Jake is intuitive and positive. And most importantly, he doesn’t waste time. His style is an excellent balance of “let’s get things done” and also creative and exploratory. He seems to know when to focus on the concrete goals and when to explore our motivations and feelings.

Matt – Investor

Jake coached and mentored me through the first phases of my internet company. He is a very talented, knowledgeable and experienced businessman. I cannot speak highly enough about him and his incredible help. Jake helped me a lot by merely believing in me and my business. My confidence soared through the roof from the very first chat with this brilliant man. He helped me set up my own online fashion business, and it is running very successfully now. Thank you for your impressive help. Keep doing what you are doing!

Jane Ho – Online Entrepreneur

I can highly recommend Jake and his excellence services. He helped, mentored me and coached me to take me and my business to the next level. And then another and another one. I can not thank him enough!
