Value Your Time While There is Still Time

. Friday 18 November 2011

In today's busy lifestyle we often find ourselves making excuses of lack of time. But if we complete our day-to-day work fast and with some smartness then we can stop making such excuses. This smartness means that we should always take care of our time management so that our valuable time is not wasted.

Get Rid of Unwanted Mails
You should ask yourself how much time you spend daily in reading and then replying your mails. Apart from that the important thing is that if those mails that you are replying are even related to your work or not. You should not avoid your important mails in replying and reading all those useless time consuming ones.

Get Rid of TV
Often when we sit and start watching tv then we lose track of time quickly. Also watching tv for too long can lead to many health issues. Instead of wasting your time on tv spend time with your hobbies, passions etc or you can also make use of this time to be with your family.

Always Plan Ahead
If you plan for next day in the night before then you can prepare yourself mentally more easily for the schedule of next day. By this your mind will find ways to perform better in those tasks that you have planned for the next day. Also keep those tasks in priority so that important work is completed first.

Divide Your Work
Whenever possible divide your work between other people. You can give the task of attending calls, scheduling meetings, checking important mails etc to some assistant and hence can save your valuable time. For this you can have someone work part time for you.

Learn to Say NO
One of our biggest weakness is that we cannot say no easily. Due to this habit majority of our time gets wasted in others work. To grow in career its important to avoid unimportant work and expectations of other people and co-workers. But never be rude in saying No, but also make sure not to divert your mind and energy on other things while your are working.
