Question ID: 474839
I need to get organized at work. I'm a writer and things frequently
get busy or lost in the shuffle. I've done some reading of time
managment and organization books, but I need some kind of online
course or work book I can work my way through to practice and apply
the skills, and to show to others my commitment to getting organized.

It must cover the "covey box" where things are ranked by importance
and need time, divided into quadrants where they are grouped. But it
must emphasize project management and organization, and be an online
class or a workbook that I can spend time on and "show my work" for a
few weeks as I work my way through it.

I've searched amazon and run around the web, but even places like
ed2go.com don't really seem to have something that fits my needs.

Thanks!

Thank you for posting that. It's an example of what I've found on the
net and with the site I listed above - that is a broader based class
for project management - I'm looking more for a self-paced or online
based personal organization class or workbook.

Right now I'm working my way through the Lifebalance free trial, which
helps, but is only a tool.

I know it isnt what you are looking for, but I thought this book was
pretty much an eye-opener:
