“Time management” is the process of organizing and planning how to divide your time between specific activities. Good time management enables you to work smarter – not harder – so that you get more done in less time, even when time is tight and pressures are high.

Time management is the act or process of planning and exercising conscious control over the amount of time spent on specific activities, especially to increase efficiency or productivity.
Reduction of Stress
The first, and most important strategy you can employ to manage your time is to set clear goals for yourself. As a Lions leader, you will want to accomplish many things in your time of office. The best favor you can do for yourself is to determine what those goals are and make sure your efforts are always directed toward their achievement.
Effective goals share a number of characteristics in common. Effective goals are:
Specific – When a goal is too vague, you may never know how to reach it or even when you have reached it. Make sure that you know exactly what you hope to achieve
Measurable – When you have a goal that is measurable, you will know how far you have to go to reach the goal, and when you get there
Note: You may wish to provide an example of a vague, unmeasurable goal, and then a specific, measurable goal here. For instance, “I will support extension in my district” is a vague goal, while “I will establish five new clubs in my district is both specific (new clubs) and measurable (five).
Achievable – It is commendable to set your sights high, but sometimes we try to accomplish more than we can actually do. Training and certifying ten Certified Guiding Lions in your district in one year may or may not be achievable at this time for a number of reasons. Your goals should be such that, if you “extend yourself” you can just reach them.
Realistic – Can you establish a program in your district to help everyone with vision problems? It is certainly a worthwhile goal, but it may not be realistic at this time. It might be better to work on setting up a program with schools to provide vision testing and eyeglasses for disadvantaged children.
Note: You may wish to provide an example of an achievable, realistic goal that you have achieved or observed in your own club or district.
Time-based – Most of the goals that you establish in your position as a Lions leader will not be long-term. It is important to set time guidelines for your goals, so that you can keep track of your progress as you are going along and can be alert to when you are falling behind schedule.
Note: You may wish to state a goal that meets the five characteristics, and ask participants to explain how each characteristic is met. For example, “We will increase retention of current members in my district by reducing the dropout rate to X % by the end of the fiscal year.”
Further, you may wish to provide a non-example and ask participants to restate it to meet the five characteristics. For example, “We will improve the service we provide to our community.”
