To develop time management, one has to develop a habit of managing time effectively. This is easier said than done of course. To get you started on building that habit, try to arrive at appointments and meetings on time. Did you know that 15 minutes of a scheduled 1 hour meeting is wasted just because of waiting for someone? As elementary as this tip may be, arriving on time helps develop that time management attitude. Another simple way that will help in learning time management is to avoid procrastination at all times. This also supports your quest in developing the habit of managing time. How many times have you woken up to the sound of an alarm clock and then pressing the snooze button to give yourself an extra 5 minutes to lay in bed? In 5 minutes, you can make 100 photocopies of a 2-page report. Procrastination is a true productivity killer, so avoid it all costs. Other things to avoid include adding personal time to your work time, making unnecessary phone calls, standing up and visiting other people's office space to chat and this list could go on and on. Always remember that when you're at work, you are expected to work. One more way to develop the time management attitude is learning how to multi-task. Imagine this, when replying to an e-mail from your boss, why not start printing that report you need for tomorrow's meeting? Since you're staring at the computer screen while composing the e-mail anyway, you can keep track of the printing progress as well. This will free up time for you to do more important things like spend time with your family. Once you have developed the time management habit, you can start controlling your time more efficiently. Start off by writing things down. Often times, you rely on your memory to remember things. However, during the course of a day, these "things" start to pile-up, which leads to information overload and then eventually you forget what it was in the first place. Writing tasks on a piece of paper will help remind you that there are things that need to be done. So start carrying a small notebook with you or pieces of paper. When you need to take note of something, write it down and don't rely solely on your memory. Remember that memory degrades over time. Learning time management can be easy if you know how. There's no need to spend thousands of dollars attending a course on time management when what they tell you is something that you have been doing all the time. Hopefully, the tips mentioned will help you get started on your way to becoming a good time manager.
