8. Principle No 1: Setting the table
To set the table we must have to follow the 3 steps procedure.
• Step 1 Decide: decide exactly what do you want. Analyze your financial life,
health, relationship, social life and other important Aspects of your life and be
clear about your goals in every aspects of life.
• Step 2 Write on paper: people who write their task on the paper 5 to 10 times
they have more likely to achieve their goals. Our brain is not good for storage it
is very good for creating new ideas and creative thinking. Therefore make it
your habit to write your tasks on the paper. If it is not possible to write it on the
paper then write it in your mobiles at least
• Step 3 make deadlines: if we want to finish a task then it is very important to
give deadline to that task.

9. Principle no 2: Set the goals
To set the goals for your task keep in mind the word
smart.
S- Specific.
M- Measurable.
A-Actionable.
R- Relevant.
T- Time bound.

10. SMART
•Specific: specify your goals if the goals are less specific the
more it will be difficult to achieve if the goals are more
specific it will be easier to achieve that.
•Measurable: measure your goals in term of success that
how much you will be successful to achieve that goals.
•Actionable: how much you will be able to be done or
acted on your goals. Do you have the resources and
capabilities to achieve the success or not.

11. SMART
•Relevant: how much the goals are relevant to your
work. How much it closely connected or
appropriate to what is being done or considered.
•Time bound: the goals or tasks that is measured or
restricted by time. This means. That you would have
only a certain amount of time to achieve that.

12. Principle no 3: plane every day in
advance
•Failing to plan is planning to fail
•For planning there is one important approach called
6p approach which helps you to achieve more in less
time.

advance (cont’d)
Before you going to start your work you should
going to make a plan because a few minutes
plan can save your time in hours and helps you
in finishing your work as soon as possible
without any problem. If you do not make a plan
at the end it will create confusion and compel
you on the procrastinate

14. Principle no 4: prioritize:
For prioritize the tasks we can use a 4 D approach.
•Do
•Delegate
•Delay
•Delete

15. 4 D approach.
•Do: means do it now those works which is very
important and you must have to do it in every
aspect.
•Delegate: giving responsibilities to others mean give
your task to others if it is not related to you.
•Delay: delay those works which is not important and
there is no deadline for it.
•Delete: those activities that just waist your time.
