How to manage your time

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 good time management:

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.

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.

Let's look at some ways to manage time effectively

1. Set goals correctly: Set goals that are achievable and measurable.

2. Prioritize wisely: Prioritize tasks based on importance and urgency.

3. Set a time limit to complete a task: Setting time constraints for completing tasks helps you be more focused and efficient.

4. 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.

5. 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.
