| How to Make the Most of Your Time Time management is important in our daily life. There never seems to be enough hours in the day to accomplish all you need to do. Here are some tips that might be of some help to you. 1. Set up a plan. Go for a week at a time,and decide the most important ones. Include things you want to accomplish. Focus mostly on the things that are important to you. 2. Control your stress. No matter what kind of pressure mounts on you.try to keep cool. Stressing out can lead to an early break-down,which is definitely counter-productive when you have a list of things to do. It's easier to take a 10-minute break and cool off than to work all week with stress. 3. Shut your door. When working under a schedule, perform your important tasks with your door shut to get them done. This will ensure a better quality time to get what needs to be done done. 4. Focus on one thing at a time. Forget trying to multi-task! You will lose concentration, and it will take you longer to accomplish what you set out to do. 5. Just say "no". If you are constantly interrupted, and you really don't have the time to help out, just say "no". You're only one person, and you can't save the world by yourself! 6. Stop wasting time on the phone. While talking on the phone, keep your conversations short, and to the point and you'll waste much less time. 7. Be realistic. You can only do what you can do. Don't set out to accomplish the impossible. Do your best, but keep realistic expectations of yourself. 8. Relax. The most important thing is to remember to take time to relax, and regroup. You need a break every now and then to keep working efficiently. Even if it's a 10-minute walk, get away from your list and get refreshed. As families today get busier and busier, it's important to your own mental health to keep things on track. Don't delay; get your life in order now. |
