Successful people make use of their time properly and appropriately,they use their time wisely and don't waste it on things that aren't worth wasting time on that's why they are successful.
Many of us squander our time on things that aren't important,we should try to use our time wisely on things that are worth wasting time on.
As we all know we have 86,400 seconds in a day,we might think that's a whole lot of time for us but time is faster than we think, effective time planning is needed so we don't waste time on worthless things.
Let me list a few helpful tips that can help us manage our time properly;
1.Start your day early.
Starting our day early would make us achieve our goals on time and have some rest,most successful people wake up early to take full advantage of the day.
2.Set achievable goals to start your day with.
Setting goals is one of the necessary things to consider while starting off our day,we should set goals that are achievable and work hard with time to achieve our goals for the day.
3.Focus on completing a task at a time.
It is said that multitasking ourselves wastes alot of time,so to achieve reasonable goals we need to finish up one task at a time before setting to start another task.
4.Have some breaks between each tasks.
Let's schedule our time and leave at least 1hr-2hr for engaging with our friends or leisure, working all day isn't the best option but having some rest in-between is the best option so far,our body needs some rest between each task we've completed so while planning our day we should schedule time for having fun and hanging around with friends.
5.Schedule few meetings to attend to.
Most meetings aren't important so let's say yes to all meetings but try to say no to most of them so we can save time effectively and manage it to finish our tasks.
There are some common pitfalls of time management which we should avoid,they are as follows;
1.Not scheduling your To-do list,we need to plan our time and make some good schedule to get our task done.
2.Multitasking yourself isn't appropriate,it wastes time that's why we should finish a task first before heading to engage on the other one.
3.Not knowing the amount of time a task can consume,we might not be able to plan our tasks appropriately if we can't know the amount of time we would consume for the task,we might just waste an hour for a task which wouldn't take upto 30 minutes.
If you are having doubts if you are good in planning your time,you should ask yourself this few questions.
1.Do i know how to schedule time between each tasks for everyday.
2.Do I know how much time it takes to complete each task.
Those are the questions you should ask yourself if you are having doubts if you are good in time planning.
Successful people set's some reasonable goals and work towards achieving them within the set time,they spend more time doing important tasks and spend little time attending to friends and family that's what makes them successful.
That's all for today.
