Personally Effective

Today I am embarking upon a course. Accompanying me on this course are 7 of my new colleagues from around the country. Some of them have been there for years, some for a few weeks, but all are in need of achieving complete Personal Effectiveness.

The pre-course work involved answering the following questions. I have given you my answers in order for you to gauge an adequate idea of what I will be doing, and indeed how I will change, over the next 2 days:

1) Describe an area in your life where you would like to be more effective - this can be work related, or something from your personal life:
I feel that while I am highly effective in some areas of my life, others are in need of fine tuning. Some areas that I would like to focus on are; ironing, folding fitted sheets, washing dishes, sweeping and washing the floors and being able to position a tissue up my nose so as to completely stop the flow of snot brought on by the recent lurgy I have suffered.

2) What areas of work would you like to improve, and be more effective in:
Well, considering I've done a mammoth term of 2 weeks, I'd quite like to be more effective in knowing stuff. If it's at all possible for me to transplant my bosses brain into my head, that'd be just peachy.

3) What lasting impression would you like to leave on people that you meet at work, and in your social life:
Currently I see myself as 'that chick with the strange looking cat', whereas a label more like, 'that chick with the strange looking cat who's, like, super cool and as hot as a beaver in a sauna' would be pretty damn sweet.

So, I guess we'll see how it goes - of course, I'll attempt to update you on my transformation.
