Creating Time Part 1
I recently read an article written in Awake that discussed the challenges that many of us face in utilizing our time. The article listed 20 ways in which you can create more time for yourself. Over the next week, I will be sharing with you a few of the tips that were presented and my own personal take on each one. Let’s get started.
Tip: “Write an Action Plan”
If you have a project due or several projects due, write an action plan. This will allow you to list out all the steps you need to accomplish to complete each project. Once you have them listed, you can prioritize them and set a scheduled time to complete each task.
Tip: “Schedule Your Most Important Tasks First”
Our important tasks typically are the ones that cause us the most stress but do not necessarily consume the majority of our time. If you schedule them first each day, your stress will diminish and you will find time to accomplish your less important tasks. If you put them on the back burner, your time will feel stretched as you stress about them and you will be less efficient. Get them done first and enjoy your day.
