You may think that time management can solve all your problems, but there are things you should learn to do before you can truly be able to maximise your time.
Time is a very valuable commodity not just for some people, but for everyone. Time is constant and it will never change. We all have the same amount of time but use it differently. Some of us will be able to spend the time wisely while some will just waste it without achieving anything. You see, the real reason we can’t manage our time is not because we have more tasks or a more difficult task. It’s simply because some people are willing to change and accept that they need to change their ways in order to improve. If you feel that you want to commit in order to improve your time management skills, head on over to PD Training in Singapore to start improving yourself.
Keep in mind that there are only three ways to spend your time – this should make things easier for you. These are:
- Thoughts
- Conversations
- Actions
Through these three, we can either make or break our time. Some end up daydreaming. Some use time for things unrelated in his/her priority list. Some might say they can do the job a bit later and they just keep on extending the time. They then do not have enough to complete the task. Some just plain misuse or waste their time and before they know it, they have none left and are left scratching their heads. At some point, the way you use your time can be self-sabotaging.
Make a List
Make a list of all your thoughts, actions and conversations for the week. This will give you a general idea of what consumes your time.
Schedule Appointments
Schedule appointments not just for other people but for yourself as well. Block off a certain amount of time for yourself to allow time for those important thoughts, actions or conversations.
Aim for Results
When working, it is always best to aim for results. When you’re staying extra late in the office, it doesn’t mean you’ll achieve more. In fact, it might even be counterproductive for you because you won’t have enough rest for the next day.
Have a Plan
Start the first 30 minutes of your day making a plan or better yet, make your plan before you leave the office the previous day so you’ll come in the next day ready for what’s ahead.
