This document discusses the importance of valuing time. It states that time is a rare resource that is lost forever once spent. It recommends understanding the value of your time, whether as an employee based on your salary and employer's profits, or as a self-employed individual based on desired after-tax income. Understanding the value of your time helps determine which tasks are worthwhile versus a poor return on your time so that low-value jobs can be avoided or assistance requested.

VALUING TIME
• Time is rare resource. Once it is spent, it is lost for ever.
• A first step in good time management is to understand the value of your time.
• If you are employed by someone else, you need to understand how much your
employer is paying for your time, and how much profit he or she expects to make
from you.
• If you are working for yourself, you should have an idea of how much income you
want to bring in after tax. By working these figures back to an hourly rate, this
gives you an idea of the value of your time.
• By knowing the value of your time, you should be able to tell what tasks are
worthwhile to perform, and which tasks give a poor return.
• This helps you cut away the low value jobs, or argue for help with them.
