The Time Professionals
Innovative Time Management, Organization & Planning
Do You Have Challenges Managing Time, Organizing, or Planning?
Don’t worry, we all do! But when you learn how to manage your time, you have greater control over your life. You can meet deadlines, be on time, coordinate a busy schedule and reduce the stress in your life.
How is your time management?
What we do, when we do it and how we get it done are controlled by the executive functions of the brain. Do you have difficulty keeping your life (and stuff) organized? Is it hard to plan and prioritize your day? Are you frustrated with a lack of motivation or letting others down? You can learn how to do all these things and keep both time and task in order.
Our approach to time management, organization and planning is entirely brain-based. In our courses, you understand how your brain is wired and how to work with your strengths – and weaknesses. Together, we train your brain to retain and use the visual tools/strategies that will help you reach your goals.
Would You Like To Improve Your Time Management and/or Planning?
Regular classes are scheduled monthly for time management and/or planning. You will either learn time management tools/strategies that you can implement immediately – or you will have a clear plan for how to get your projects started (or finished). We can also bring this training to you. If you would like on-site training, we can teach one of our existing classes – or create a customized course that will meet your specific objectives. Contact us for more information about private training. Classes are taught in person in the Portland Metro area, Sonoma County, CA and online anywhere in the world. Raise your productivity (without the stress) and learn how to:
- • Show up on time with ease
- • Plan your day effectively and efficiently
- • Plan for future events
- • Stop losing/wasting time
- • Get started on tasks you keep putting off
- • Manage daily details

Reviews
In one three hour class, Mary Ellen introduced me to a number of tools and techniques that have simplified my life, enabling me to create order and serenity where there was disorder and anxiety, and to make progress in areas where I’d been stuck.
I’m no longer drowning in a mountain of minutiae and piles of papers, and the things that I want and need to get done are getting done–all of which makes life much more relaxing and satisfying. And perhaps best of all, Mary Ellen has made it fun!

I’ve struggled my whole life with distraction and procrastination, especially in work situations with challenging, unclear projects and tasks. I spent a couple of afternoons with Mary Ellen figuring out what was getting in my way . . . and what I could do about it. I’ve since implemented several of the tools that I learned from her and things are much improved! And she was fun to work with. Highly recommended for anyone with similar challenges.
