Are you always in a hurry somewhere, but you do not have time for anything and are late everywhere? Are you sorry that there are only 24 hours in a day? Do you not understand how other people manage to accomplish all their tasks? Meanwhile, it is quite possible. The main thing is to organize the day correctly and manage your time. It's not that hard to figure out the tricks of time management. If you want to learn how to organize yourself, then there are some tips on how to do this.
Instructions
Step 1
Scheduling your work and personal time will help you become a more successful person. You will get more time to get done, which means your productivity will increase. Take a blank sheet of paper and write down all the tasks you need to get done during the day. Determine the approximate amount of time you will need to complete this or that task. At first, it will be difficult for you to adhere to this plan, because, firstly, you will need to remember, constantly check with it, and secondly, you may not be able to correctly estimate the time it takes to complete your duties. But through trial and error, you can end up with an effective schedule for your day.
Step 2
When making a plan for the day, identify the main and secondary tasks. Start by doing the hardest ones, even if they're not particularly enjoyable. But you should not forget about secondary duties, otherwise it may turn out that you will postpone easy tasks for later, as a result there will be a lot of them, and you will need to spend time on their implementation.
Step 3
Divide all tasks into urgent and non-urgent. Naturally, priority in execution should be given to the first, but again, do not forget about the second. If the task does not need to be completed right now, this does not mean that you can forget about it. Otherwise, you run the risk of accumulating a lot of such tasks, which, in an unexpected way for you, will move from the second category to the first.
Step 4
Learn to say no. Take care of yourself, maybe you do not have time to do anything for yourself, since you are engaged in other people's affairs and problems? Then the ability to refuse will save you a lot of time. And there is no need to be afraid to offend a person. If you say “no” confidently and at the same time argue your refusal, then no one will be offended.
Step 5
Even with an emergency, try to remain calm. In a panic, your productivity will drop as you will not know what to grab onto in the first place. In this situation, it is better to sit down, try to calm down, and then assess the volume and level of work, highlight important and urgent tasks and take up their implementation.
