No matter how one approaches time management, a few limitations will always be in place. There will only be twenty four given hours in any one day. One will need to sleep, eat, tend to hygiene and conduct other "prerequisite" activities. There will always be more things that one might like to do than there is time to do them. When one looks at that collection of limitations, it becomes very clear that proper prioritization is essential to effective time...

I've often been asked why my life seems so organised. When this question was first put to me I didn't know how to respond. My first impression was..."gee, am I so obviously anal?"

When I sat down and thought about it I realised it had nothing to do with being anal. More to do with good time management and it's something I learnt very early in life. You see, having a good time management strategy is not rocket science. It's about implementing a routine in your day to...

Whether you’re the CEO of a multi-million dollar business, a manager of a large team, a supervisor or a hard working employee, chances are there’s someone in your working life who will try to load extra things onto you. These ‘extra tasks’ are often called the ‘monkey on our back’.

Even in your family or personal friendships you can probably think of people who are good at trying to throw monkeys onto your back!

Meet the monkey!

Is there a subject more charged than that of time, especially among parents? It is the source of many of our conversations ("How are you?" "Busy!") and much of our guilt.

Time is also a subject that has been too much on my mind lately, leaving me feeling a little short of breath without knowing exactly why.

Maybe it is because, of late, we have known way too many people coping with untimely, tragic deaths. Anytime someone younger than you dies...

If you're not sure where all your time disappears, keep a log of your time for a week or so. Make a note of everything you do through your normal working day.

Include work and personal time, from when you wake up, how long you take for meals (too much, too little?) until you go to bed. There are no right or wrong answers, at this stage you're just getting an idea of where your time goes.

Now, answer the following questions to see where you are spending your time in...

Our routine, lifestyle, even the most important decisions we make are somewhat time related. Time is indeed our life.

Time is an infinite resource that we can neither save nor find a substitute to. It is a resource that both the rich and poor were born with. All of us are given an equal amount of it every day. It is up to us how we use it.

Our success or failure depends on how we spend it. Although we know that we should not waste time, we sometimes find ourselves running...

Below are some of the reasons why people choose not to create their to-do list.

1. Procrastination
Some of these people have tried to make a list but due to their procrastination habit, things keep putting off. Even, if they have created their own...

As for what you can do to improve your time management, you...

It never quite works the way you planned it, does it? You've a to-do list that is chock-full of items, and you make a detailed plan for the entire day, thinking you'll finish a full one third before lunch, another third before tea and the rest before an early dinner.

Only, as it turns out, you end up finishing less than ten percent in the entire day, leaving you with a mountain to climb on the morrow, and a depressed mood for the rest of the day.
