Manage Your Time Productively

Time is nature’s way of keeping everything from happening at once! Woody Allen.

Leave it to Woody Allen to put a funny spin on a pressing subject.

How many times have you caught yourself saying, “I can’t believe how fast time is going.”

Of all your possessions, aside from good health, of course, time is one of the most precious, for when it’s gone, it’s gone.

The demands on your time never seem to stop. In fact, in today’s demanding, instant-on world, they are only increasing.

Everybody wants some of your time but there is only so much to go around. In a day, there are only 24 hours. After you factor in eating and sleeping, there aren’t many left. The trick is to use the remaining time most productively. Here are three top tips:

  1. Learn to say ‘no.’ If someone asks for your time, check your calendar before you commit. Arrange a time that works for both of you.
  2. Stop being a slave to the internet and social media.
  3. Review – and constantly update – your todo list. Keep asking yourself this all important question: Is what what I have scheduled to do moving me towards or away from my objectives? If the answer is no, either scratch it off your list or reschedule.

 There are only 168 hours in a week. So few. Yikes. So much to do.
