Time Management Tips - Tips On Time Management

Life just seems so busy these days that we feel we just don't have time to do anything any more.

Or is it that we have created so many things to do in our lives that we don't have enough time to do everything we want to do. People ask us to do something or go some where how many times do you answer back I am just to busy. Well that's how it feels at times.

Time management is to write a list of all the things you do for a week. One way of being more detailed is to write a list everyday of how you spent the day then at the end of the week you will see what you have done for the whole week.

Start going through the list and realize what you actually do in that week. Often times it's a reality check on how we spend our time. So if your finding you don't have time to do what you want in your life then maybe it is time for a reality check and if your serious then you will write down how you just spent your last week.

Your list can be as detailed as you want, and the more detailed you are the more honest you are with yourself. Remember this is your list, no one has to see this. Look for time wasters like how much time you spent on the phone, watching TV etc. Think about what you could have been doing instead. Time management is about you asking yourself, is this utilising my time?, could I be doing something else I want to achieve.

After looking at your list and you can see that you have a problem with time management, then maybe its time to writing to do lists each day. You have probably heard that so many times. But if your having problems with managing your time then maybe its time you started to do lists. Each day write what you need to do. What does not get done that day write the activity on the next days list keep doing this until all you have on your list is done.

The saying that ask a busy person to do something and it will get done. Is probably true as most people that are busy seem to be more organized. Is it because they use time management, that they allocate times when they need to have things done and use to do lists?.

If you feel that time management is a concern for you then maybe you need some time out each day just to sit quietly and slow your racing mind down. When we sit and allow ourselves some time out from the rest of the world we allow ourselves to be us, we clear our mind and

thoughts become clearer. When we have a clearer mind then we feel more organized within ourselves then time management is now not such an issue. So within so without!
