Time management: A proposal
I once read in a biography about Benjamin Franklin that he rested for 45 minutes per day around 2.00 in order to rejuvenate his energy. A treatise on cognitive neuroscience affirmed his belief albeit in a different way and with elaboration. It opined that particular moments of the day carried specific energy levels; that the morning provided the greatest resources of energy intensity, that midday (between 1:00 PM and 2.pm provided the least), and that from the hours between 3.00 and 7.00 tasks involved a different part of the brain and, therefore, more physical but less intellectual activities succeeded during this part of the day. According to this routine, therefore, the morning would be devoted to intellectual study, a brief rest during the 2.00pm time slot would replenish energies, whilst the afternoon would be dedicated to physical projects.
I tried this for several months straight for almost a year. At first I was reluctant to waste a portion of my day in rest and I experimented with the time of day accorded this rest and with the actual span of rest. I discovered that resting enabled me to awake earlier -- approximately 4.00 -- and to go to bed later -- approximately 12.00. I also discovered that I had to time my rest to occur not longer than and not shorter than 30 minutes for a more indulgent rest would leave me feeling grumpy whilst a briefer rest would make me more fatigued than before. So Franklin's idea of rest was contributive provided that it occurred within the perimeters of a certain time span. I also discovered that certain tasks did seem to correlate to certain parts of the day, namely that my energy levels were greater for some tasks than others during particular parts of the day and that whilst the morning was suited for intellectual / mental tasks, I was better able to do physically-oriented tasks in the afternoon....
Though it is not entirely necessary for the approach taken to be a novel one, the research here will consider that there are yet undetermined impacts on the merchant of such a system. Thus, a second part of this methodology will be focused upon once the literature review has provided us with sufficient data to surmise a framework for the automated system. As this automation would impact the ordering systems

.. every employee must become an operational strategist.... Strategic planning must no longer be considered an elitist activity that happens behind closed doors.... Rather, planning must be viewed as a continuous, interactive, and democratic process that empowers managers and employees together to create the future of the firm." (Purser & Cabana) Lear (1992) blames the downfall of General Motors and IBM in the early 1990s to their reliance on hierarchical management.
Inducements motivate employees and can also distribute power effectively. A third recommendation would be for Green to admit that he was wrong, take the consequences and work to improve. The disproportionate use of power conflicted in a bad relationship between two colleagues. Each person sought advice from outside group members. Thomas Green and Frank Davis' issues developed into a great conflict. Power strategies are effectual when properly used, and people
Frustrations of this nature only grow worse with time (Myers & Spencer, 2004) and resentments magnify by virtue of internalizing them instead of finding a way of expressing them appropriately (Aronson, Wilson, & Akert, 2003). In many respects, the anger that eventually erupts is more reflective of the additional psychological energy required to repress genuine feelings about coworkers and working situations than it is appropriate to the actual situation
Employees blamed management for the perceived lack of opportunities created by new employees, while management blamed employees for the lack of customer orders filled. This conflict seems to have reached a deadlock, as feelings are so volatile that effective communication is all but impossible. However, by considering some basic elements of communication, both management and employees can return to their previous level of effectiveness, and the Words Unlimited can
