Why Time Management?

Personal Time Management Tips
Time Management is a central skill of success.
Ability to manage time, focus, and channel energies on highest-value tasks will determine rewards and level of accomplishment in life.
“Success leaves tracks…”
Successful people all have one thing in common – they are EXTREMELY WELL ORGANIZED – they use their time very, very well.

The 4 Rules of Time
Time is perishable
Time is indispensable
Time is irreplaceable
Time is essential for accomplishment

If the motivation is high enough, you can use your time extraordinarily well.
Requires self-discipline, self-mastery, and self-control
Requires that you engage in activities that are goal achieving rather than tension relieving.
Do what is hard and difficult and valuable BEFORE what is fun and easy and unimportant.
“Never give in to temptation to clear up small things first.”
How to Improve Time Management?

5 Questions to Ask
What are your highest-value activities?
What are your key result areas?
Why are you on the payroll?
What can you, and only you, DO, which if done well, will make a real difference?
What is the most valuable use of my time right now?

The 10 Minute Rule
The 10 Minute Rule is pretty simple and works like this. I tell myself that I will engage in the task at hand for at least 10 minutes. If after 10 minutes, I don’t feel like finishing, I can stop and walk away, guilt free. Because most of the time the hardest part of any task is getting started, this rule of thumb helps me push past the roadblocks that keep me from doing things that I may not always feel like doing, but am always glad I did once I’m done.

Homework
Set Goals
Avoid Procrastinating!
Break large, time-consuming tasks into smaller tasks
Practice the 10-minute rule.
Evaluate how you’re spending your time.
Get plenty of sleep and exercise.
Don’t be afraid to take a break.
