Time cannot be stopped, it is also impossible to stock up on it. It is not a renewable resource that is constantly in short supply, and this is its value. However, different people take different amounts of time for the same activity. Are they more capable? No, they just know how to manage it.
Time management skills are not difficult to develop. It takes patience, desire and self-organization. These qualities will help you find a couple of free hours that you lacked so much.
First, decide on the purpose of the work. Write a list of activities or a plan that you must do during the day. Be sure to include the time and check this timetable as often as possible so you don't miss anything or waste time on something unplanned. Thus, you will have time to do all the important things and leave time for rest or secondary activities.
A person spends a lot of time waiting. Traveling in transport, queuing at shops, in traffic jams. Make good use of this time. If you have your own car, listen to an audiobook, make a plan for the evening or the next day, solve some important issue. If you are on the subway, read a book or listen to it in audio.
Do not do the same thing all the time, switch. In such cases, it is often advised to rest, but this is not effective enough. Better switch to another more interesting business.
Disconnect from the outside world. Do not go to entertainment sites and social networks, so you will waste a lot of time, even if you have logged in for five minutes, you will soon notice that you have lost a whole hour. Sometimes the answer to a friend's message turns into a long conversation.
There is always the temptation to break the plan and go for a walk or watch your favorite TV show. This always happens if there is no motivation. You must fully understand what you want to achieve and what result you want to get.
Therefore, it is very important to motivate yourself to work not only during the day, but also during the week, and month, and even year.
