TIME MANAGEMENT
Ann Yatsun A BRIEF GUIDE TO TIME MANAGEMENT
Time management is the process of
planning and controlling how much time to spend on specific activities. Good time management enables an individual to complete more in a shorter period of time, lowers stress, and leads to career success. BENEFITS OF TIME MANAGEMENT 1. STRESS RELIEF
Making and following a task schedule
reduces anxiety. As you check off items on your “to-do” list, you can see that you are making tangible progress. This helps you avoid feeling stressed out with worry about whether you’re getting things done. 2. MORE TIME
Good time management gives you extra
time to spend in your daily life. People who can time-manage effectively enjoy having more time to spend on hobbies or other personal pursuits. 3. MORE OPPORTUNITIES
Managing time well leads to more
opportunities and less time wasted on trivial activities. Good time management skills are key qualities that employers look for. The ability to prioritize and schedule work is extremely desirable for any organization. 4. ABILITY TO REALIZE GOALS
Individuals who practice good time
management are able to better achieve goals and objectives, and do so in a shorter length of time. 1. SET GOALS CORRECTLY
Set goals that are achievable and
measurable. Use the SMART method when setting goals. In essence, make sure the goals you set are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Releva nt, and Timely. 2. PRIORITIZE WISELY
Prioritize tasks based on importance
and urgency. For example, look at your daily tasks and determine which are: Important and urgent: Do these tasks right away. Important but not urgent: Decide when to do these tasks. Urgent but not important: Delegate these tasks if possible. Not urgent and not important: Set these aside to do later. 3. SET A TIME LIMIT TO COMPLETE A TASK
Setting time constraints for completing
tasks helps you be more focused and efficient. Making the small extra effort to decide on how much time you need to allot for each task can also help you recognize potential problems before they arise. That way you can make plans for dealing with them. 4. TAKE A BREAK BETWEEN TASKS
When doing a lot of tasks without a break, it
is harder to stay focused and motivated. Allow some downtime between tasks to clear your head and refresh yourself. Consider grabbing a brief nap, going for a short walk, or meditating. 5. ORGANIZE YOURSELF
Utilize your calendar for more long-term
time management. Write down the deadlines for projects, or for tasks that are part of completing the overall project. Think about which days might be best to dedicate to specific tasks. For example, you might need to plan a meeting to discuss cash flow on a day when you know the company CFO is available. 6. REMOVE NON-ESSENTIAL TASKS/ACTIVITIES It is important to remove excess activities or tasks. Determine what is significant and what deserves your time. Removing non- essential tasks/activities frees up more of your time to be spent on genuinely important things. 7. PLAN AHEAD
Make sure you start every day with a clear
idea of what you need to do – what needs to get done THAT DAY. Consider making it a habit to, at the end of each workday, go ahead and write out your “to-do” list for the next workday. That way you can hit the ground running the next morning. USE TIME FOR THE RIGHT GOALS THANK YOU FOR ATTENTION
