Unintended Perception

Do you know what it "says" to someone who is depending on you to follow through, but you choose not to do so? It indicates that your time and needs are more important than theirs. Certainly, most of us would NEVER verbalize this thought and that's generally not the message you wish to convey. But that's the unintended perception when you are lax in completing a favor or task. Most people don't want to have to constantly remind you to follow through-makes them seem like a "nag". However, if that's the only recourse available to them, what would you suggest they do??It's easier to just follow through, don't you think??

About Me

My photo
Washington, DC, United States
I am Dr. Darnita L. Payden, Executive Director/Owner of Dr. DClutter™ Life Management, a division of PreciousOnes™ LLC. I have a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology and over 20 years of experience working to help clients discover their strengths and talents. Having worked as a therapist, college professor, grief specialist and trainer, I have encountered in my journey many of the issues my clients may face. I have a sincere desire to help you find clarity, organization and independence in your life and environments. I know that life can be hectic, but I desire to help my clients bring as much order, peace and enjoyment back into their lives as is possible. What separates me from the norm? I focus on the client from a holistic perspective. I realize that most people desire a functional and an organized life, but may simply need support, understanding and information about why they have the habits or tendencies that have led to disorganization. I do not perform “quick fixes” or provide “one-size-fits-all” guidance, but I strive to provide strategies to my clients that will be life changing and useful for a lifetime. Dr. DClutter™ is a name well earned!!
