The ability to properly manage your time is a necessary quality of a successful person. So that you do not have the feeling that the day has flown by and you have not had time to do anything, master the techniques of time management.
Instructions
Step 1
Do a little research on how much time you spend on a particular activity. Record this data meticulously for a week or half a month. As a result, you will get a picture of how you live, see where most of your time is spent. The results of observation may come as a surprise to you, because, most likely, you spend most of your time on small matters.
Step 2
Prioritize. Determine which things on the list are more important to you. If not only the current situation depends on these matters, but also your future, give the highest score to this line. For things that you did for someone else, and those that could have been ignored altogether, assign a lower grade.
Step 3
Find a way to get rid of unnecessary activities and increase the time for important tasks. Delegation of the task or the solution of small issues of the same type in batch mode can be a solution.
Step 4
Solve the big problem gradually. Then it will not seem overwhelming. To meet the deadlines for its completion, divide it into several blocks and complete one of them daily.
Step 5
Do not be distracted by what is not important to you. Such things include, for example, idle chatter and gossip, computer games, watching talk shows. But don't give up on rest. Replace TV with a walk, and surfing the Internet with a trip to the theater.
Step 6
Use the opportunity to do two things at the same time. For example, while driving somewhere, you can read a useful article, make a presentation, or make an important call.
Step 7
Keep frequently used information organized. Then you will not need to waste time looking for the right phone number or the name of the medicine you need to buy.
Step 8
Try to take into account all the circumstances that may affect the extension of the lead time for an individual assignment. Plan it so you can get it done by the date you need it.
