Why do you what to improve your time management skills? Is it because of you are overwhelm with your study, your office works or your household works or others? Anthony Robbins said the reason for doing something is much stronger than whatever methods or skills that you are going to learn. Therefore, list down as many reasons as possible before you continue. Know Your Goals and Objectives
Just imagine you are blindfolded and are required to hit a target with a set of arrows. Do you able to hit the target? Without able to see the target, you have to play with guessing. You have to try many times and are considered very lucky if you ever able hit the target. This is the same in real life if you do not set any goals. You will be wasting your time, trying to figure out your destination. You must set goals in every aspect of your life, such as careers, family, financial, health and extra, as time management is actually life management. Once you have set the goals, visualize the most interesting scenery, the sound or the feeling of the end result when you have achieved them. Planning and Prioritizing
You need to list down all the steps, plan and prioritize them. If the goals are very huge, break them down into smaller and manageable pieces. This skill is important as you do not want to de-motivate or overwhelm yourself by seeing big goals. Put these steps in your to-do-list. Allow at least 30 percent to 50 percent of buffer time to cater for any emergency or any unexpected events which are unavoidable. Work according to the items in your to-do list as closely as possible till completion. You will feel great satisfaction once you have completed the tasks as per your to-do list. You should be able to complete your tasks much faster in a less stressful way. Review and Reinvest Your Extra Time
Create a time log and record down your activities on hourly basis. Set one hour at the end of the day to review it. Ask yourself have you making the best use of your allocated time for the day? Is there any activity that you can improve or eliminate or delegate it to others? You should be able to identify any time wasters from it. By regularly reviewing and improving your time usage, you should be able to save at least one hour per day. Reinvest the extra one hour in life long learning, which can further improve your productivity, career, financial, health, family relationship or any other aspects of your life. Once you have mastered these skills, try to further improve your personal time management skill by picking up another time management tactic from books or seminars and practice it. Always allow certain time period to test the effectiveness of the new skill before making conclusion on the skill. Since time is so valuable, it is worthwhile to invest some time to improve the usage of it.
