February is National Time Management Month

To celebrate I have compiled a few quick and easy Time Management Tips for you…

1. Realize that you can’t control time. Time will pass whether you use the space provided or not. However, you can control how you USE the space in a specific time frame and HOW you do so will often make the difference between happiness and disappointment.

2. Schedule time to plan your use of time! Sounds so simple but most people don’t do it. It takes on average 8 minutes to plan your day – everyone can spend 8 minutes to plan a day of generally 15 wakeful hours. The time spent is far less than the time wasted and lost in NOT planning.

3. Know your priorities before planning. Follows along with the old saying, “If you don’t know where you are going, how will you know when you’ve arrived?” Well, if you don’t know what your priorities are, how do you know if the tasks and activities you are engaging in are going in the direction that you want your life to go? Make a list of the priorities in your life and make sure that the tasks you undertake and the activities you engage in reflect them. Behave accordingly.
