Transactional Analysis Time Management

Transactional analysis time management is the process of combining two strategies into one plan, making it come together to reach a specific target. For example, when we are working, playing, or doing anything that connects to a goal, we need social skills and effectual communication to make it work. If we are lacking in social skills and communication our time management scheme will surely fail.

If you are ready to get started, today we are going to learn some information that can help us flow with ease through life and through everything, our life touches.

I was watching a Youtube segment about how to learn the Newfoundland language, which is English. However, the dialect of Newfoundlanders is unique to that Province and I think the world. Understanding each other is important, and even if we all speak the same language but have different dialects, we may not understand each other. If we do not understand that each of us is different in our own way, we are often on the road to failure.

Dialect consists of grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary, language, and so on. The world focuses on proper English, as a rule, to follow that leads us to productivity. The fact is most North American’s do not know proper English because they fail to understand the dialect. The American English first came into focus in the earlier centuries and came directly from England. The English Language spoken in the United States and Canada is mixed up and visibly distinguished from British England, yet not as different as to be a divided language.

This means everyone has their own method of communicating; leading us to believe that proper English is a diverse form of communication and it takes an open mind to communicate effectively as well as having social skills that develop good relationships. We are all different in our own ways, and so are our languages. No one really has the correct way of communicating effectively, yet all of us must conform to some rule. This is where we combine elements of one technique with another to make a complicated skill work.

Now to combine transactional analysis to get time management in order, we must open our minds and think creatively to reach a goal. The transitional action is the process of communicative (open-mind) action connecting more than one person or things that equally have an effect on our influence on how we connect. The analysis then is the employ of purpose word in its place of inflectional forms as a characteristic method of a verbal communication.

Inflectional is changes in your tone or volume in the voice, and the changes of form that words undertake to mark differences that meet gender, race, mood, tension, voice, number of people and so on in the process of communication and socializing. Breaking it down, when you keep an open mind you are combining transactional analysis, contributing to time management since social skills and communication are CRITICAL to reaching goals and managing time.


We can also consider other facets of analysis that can help us produce effectual communication and social skills. After carefully analyzing words for years, I come to the conclusion that understanding is part of the speaker’s problem. If you do not understand someone, it might not be you with the problem. The speaker, if he or she is not using their words properly, can interrupt communication negatively. Therefore, you must learn to listen to speakers, reading between the lines as you hear what they are saying. 
Finally, if we want a well-planned time management scheme, we have to work hard every day to make our dreams come true!

Should seniors be allowed to get young pets?


One of my best friends lost his long-time pet dog to cancer about six months ago, and he is now looking for a new dog. I am sure it is a good idea for him and his wife but he tells me that getting a new dog will make them happy. I told him I was not sure that getting a new pet was a good idea for the dog. Let’s face it some dogs and other pets may live for 15+ years. As seniors, there is no guarantee that we will outlive our pet. In Canada, the lifespan of a male is about 83.5 years and a female is about 86.6. My friend is in his 70’s and he may not beat the odds and live more than the average, so what happens to his pet when he dies?

This raised the question in my mind, should Seniors be allowed to have young pets? I know that in BC, some adoption agencies for pets, will not allow seniors to adopt young animals, because of the issue of illness and life-span. They will, however, allow seniors to adopt older pets. I personally think this is a good idea. There are many benefits of having a pet as a senior. Pet ownership can: Lower blood pressure, relieve stress, combat loneliness, ease depression, and encourage activity for seniors, Offer a greater sense of worth and offer security to their owners.
Pets for the Elderly Foundation gives results from the Baker Medical Research Institute, Australia’s largest cardiac centre, on its research page. Studies show that pet ownership:
· Reduced rates of developing heart disease
· Lowered cholesterol levels
· Reduced systolic blood pressure in female owner
There are some negatives that come with owning a pet. Roughly 86,000 injuries a year are reported in the United States due to pets, usually tripping over them. If your pets are anything like my brothers, when it is dinnertime, they are running circles around him. Also, going up and down steps with an energetic pet can lead to a fall. Also, drivers over the age of 70 are twice as likely to be involved in an accident if a pet is in the car. Pets also can contract diseases, so seniors with comprised immune systems may wish to look more into their personal conditions and the risks of having a pet.
When my friend and I talked about his desire to get a new pet, he told me that he and his wife had talked about it and had considered the following when they made their decision. He told me that they considered the health and age of the pet they were interested in owning? They considered the fact that young pets require attention and training, and they decided on an older pet, even though old pets require care and accommodation. They recognized that cats and dogs, depending on the breed, can live up to 15 or 20 years, and it was a commitment they were willing to make.
I asked him if they had thought about what would happen if they could no longer care for their pet? They had and they had a commitment from their daughter that she and her family would take the pet.
Finances are always an aspect of life, and pets require money just like anything else. Since his puppy died, my friend has done a lot of research looking for his ideal pet so he and his wife have an idea of what they are getting into. He does not want the new member of his family to become a financial burden.
