We all have 24-hours in a day. But, why does it seem that some people are able to get the most out of every minute of the day? Believe it or not, they don’t have the power to slow down time. They do, however, know how to properly manage their time. If u can manage your time you can manage your life in a good way. Time flies is the most re-known saying which is true too every second has its importance. Every single second which just past we cant cash it in our present or in near future because it will never come back.
When it comes to time management, the first step you need to take is finding out where your time actually goes. One of the worst things that you can do is wake-up without a plan for the day. Instead of focusing on what needs to be done, you wander aimlessly and take care of more trivial matters.
That’s why you should always plan ahead using one of these options;
- The night before. Before you leave work for the day, spend the last 15-minutes organizing your office and composing a list of your most important items for tomorrow.
- First thing in the morning. During your morning routine write down the 3 or 4 most urgent and important matters that need to be addressed today and work on those when you’re most productive.
- Jumping immediately from one task or meeting to the next may seem like a good use of your time, but it actually has the opposite effect. We need time to clear our minds and recharge by going for a walk, meditating, or just daydreaming. After all, the human brain can only focus for about 90-minutes at a time.
- Without that break it’s more difficult to stay focused and motivated. Scheduling buffer-time also can prevent running late to your next meeting. I find 25-minutes between tasks and meetings an ideal amount of buffer-time.
Want to know how you can become a master of time management as well? Start by using your mind. We have approximately 27,375 Days ( 365 days in one year multiply by 75 which is average life in years ) from which we spent 8000 Days in sleeping. We should try to manage our time and life in a way that when we depart atleast there should be something which we have given to society. Our lives should be meaningful.
