Time management

[Iroh]

Time management, in my opinion is a skill. A skill that comes naturally to some, while others would strive to attain. Time management skills are valued by employers on a recruitment drive and are always on the lookout for such a skill.

There are always things that are needed to get done and with so little time. That is where time management comes in.
Time management could be defined in a variety of ways. We could safely define management as a process of planning, organizing, directing, controlling of human and material resources to enable the objective achieve its aim/goal.

Time management involves planning, organizing of your tasks, activities and objectives.
Time management is critical and needed to safely achieve the goal set by either an individual or an organization. In an organization, it has been confirmed and proven that being able to effectively manage time has led to an increase in productivity and it’s general output.

Here are some strategies for the effective management of your valuable time.
1. Set a goal: Personally, I like to write down my goals(either short or long term goals). Having a goal would set and prepare your mind and helps an individual to focus on the tasks ahead

2. Plan: Planning is vital when doing literally anything. More important when you want to limit or prevent time wastages. With a plan, you could set and follow a well defined course.

3. Have a scale of preference: Having a scale of preference shows your wants, needs and tasks. It  lets you arrange your tasks in order of importance and highlights your priorities. Having a scale of preference also helps keep you organized.

3. Break larger tasks into smaller ones: Breaking larger tasks into smaller ones helps make the tasks more achievable and easier. It also helps keeps you organized and focused on the tasks

4: Delegate: Delegation is very important in an organization and it helps keep things moving smoothly and quickly. It also helps eliminate time wastage in the workplace.

5. End procrastination: With procrastination, you’re never going to get anything done. You would keep pushing things to do at a later date until they pile up and become a huge problem later on.

6. Do away with distractions: Whatever that doesn’t contribute to the attainment of a set goal is a distraction and should be dropped. All unnecessary things that doesn’t help you achieve your goal is a distraction and distractions greatly help waste time.

Time is a valuable resource that when lost, can never be recovered anymore.

Great topic, thank you for sharing it with me. Gonna pin it, haha.

I also recommend you use the Pomodoro technique - short bursts of focus on certain tasks to get things done faster and more efficiently across the day. You will feel way fresh too.

[meser#]

Time management, crisis management, team management etc. management skills are among the main features looking by corporate companies for higher positions. As can be learned later, these are the things that a person can gain with the influence of the environment in the development of his character. You can find many courses on these on the internet. But don't forget those courses are just a small piece from cake. You have to get that lessons and idea and put it your life style and whenever you have chance you have to practice on it. If you apply the strategies given by Iroh on this subject to your life in a week, you will see the difference. You will find first that your routines that took a long time from you will be shorter. Then you will start to accomplish more in a short time.

True, living our daily lives requires time management, especially if you have a job or dream, from waking up, working, hanging out with friends, etc. to going back to sleep, you must have good time management to make you disciplined in your activities.
why is it so important?
Time is a gift from God that is continuous, has a limit, cannot be replaced and time is a moment (opportunity). If you can't make good use of your time, you will slow down the success of what you have planned in advance.
Recording what you will do in a notebook or daily calendar is an example, I think it is more effective to write it down on items or places that we often use, such as smartphones and laptops.

[Majestic-milf]

 Time management is key as it helps save one stress, friction and unnecessary problem and gives you room for more advancement. Just like the op aptly observed, effective time management helps to achieve a lot of things.

 There's this rhyme that we usually say when we're kids:
"tick says the clock, tick tick
what you have to do, do quick"
This duly emphasizes how important the use of time is as it waits for no one. When time is not used properly, there comes in procrastination.

[livingfree]

I agree that it's a great skill.

And those that can manage their time properly, they're the most productive people because they know what to prioritize and what to do best for their time.

It's not everybody that can do this because they really can't when they've got free time or after they've come from their offices and day jobs. Those that can still do a lot and manages to do multiple task, they're impressive people and likely the ones to succeed in their lives because of it.

This is really what I lack since I can't really manage my time. I really want to sleep, but at the same time, I want to find an additional job to earn more money, but I think it is impossible. I am working full time today, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. UK time, so I still have time to work in the evening, but the problem is that I can't because my job is really stressful. I think my problem right now is my mind. I am hopeful that I can overcome it in the future.

[palle11]

Time is of essense to human productive strives. If you don't plan with time you have not started on anything good. "I think there is a saying that he who fails to plan has already planned to fail". This just buttress the point that timing is good because if you get old without having any skill or knowledge to sustain you to feed yourself at old age you now see it that the person didn't utilize the time to plan very well. This is why they also say time is money in the making, if we plan very well with our time we can have a success story. When we talk about time is not only our personal time but the global time in the scheme of things. The world has changed, the time we are now is different from what it was 100 years ago or 15th century ago. Therefore some of the things we do, use or are happy with then have all metamophose, the cars, electrical gadgets, to culture and social living etc.

The systematic use of time management can lead to stress.  It is very important to listen to the signals of your body. 

Sometimes a person just needs to lie on the couch and watch a new series, and not solve problems.  Rigid planning is not for everyone.  Yes, you need to set goals.  Without this, progress is impossible. 

However, you can’t mindlessly force your body to act and your brain to think.  Otherwise, a powerful psychological rollback may occur. 

Laziness is the main engine of scientific and technological progress.

[Frankolala]

As mentioned above time management is an important skill for anybody that wants to be successful in life. Time management helps you to be at the right place at the right time and also to do the right thing at the right time in other to execute a task at hand efficiently.

Time management is a skill for only discipline people and improves self discipline, an indiscipline man will find it difficult to meet up with his schedule for the day after making a proper plan because he is weak at managing his time and will be distracted by other things. Time management helps in providing energy for free time in order for you to do whatever you want such as sports,reading and so on

[naira]

It's true what you say all need management, especially in terms of time management. But sorry 1000x sorry I'm not a really consistent person when dealing with time. I sometimes let it flow and work according to the mood. Maybe because I no longer work in a certain company that requires being on time every time. I as an entrepreneur control it all according to what I want to control. I feel free and have more free time than busy time. For now, I feel much more comfortable and less demanding to always come in the morning.

[Iroh]

Thanks! It’s nice to know someone found it helpful. I have heard about the Pomodoro technique but haven’t really applied it. Nice technique though.

I’m quite fond of the Eisenhower decision matrix as it helped me stay prioritized and focused more on important things I needed done.

Try creating a 'to-do-list' or schedule of things you need to do. It might not be as accurate as you've planned but it will be better having something to rely on or follow, because it will serve as a guide. If you'd miss some of the tasks on your list, atleast you'd be able to do others based on your plan than do not do anything because your schedule is not organized. Then eventually you'll be used to being organized and systematic with your time. Then domino effect; you'll be efficient with your investments.

Actually this idea would be beneficial not only to individuals but to the society in general especially if many people would do the same thing. One of the problems in work industry is lack of plans which makes employees and also the company not as productive as they should be.

[Bananington]

6. Do away with distractions:

Multitasking can be a distraction as well, trying to do many things at a time instead of focusing your energy to complete a task first before moving to another can be a way to use more time. You will do faster and save more time, focusing your energy on one activity and moving to another instead of doing many things at a time. Avoid multitasking for effective time management.

[albon]

5. End procrastination: With procrastination, you’re never going to get anything done. You would keep pushing things to do at a later date until they pile up and become a huge problem later on.

Yes, I completely agree that procrastination is what makes any of us unable to manage our time and therefore cannot achieve our goals, so ending procrastination and starting right away is the best solution. When you manage your time, the pressure on you will be reduced and you will be able to do more work with ease, and you will be able to work with more productivity, so we all have to if we want to manage our time and take advantage of all our time to make a list of daily tasks and works and we must have a calendar of dates and periods for each task we want to do.

[Yamifoud]

Time management, in my opinion is a skill. A skill that comes naturally to some, while others would strive to attain. Time management skills are valued by employers on a recruitment drive and are always on the lookout for such a skill.

I didn't consider it a skill but a task. We did this because it is necessary especially if you are multitasking. In fact, it was been a practice in major companies either small or big companies are adopting this strategy in order to become more productive.

It was not a criterion when looking for an applicant or an employee but what the company needs is someone who has managing skills that could implement this strategy in the company. Strong management skills will likely fill the job.

[Davidvictorson]

~snip~

It all comes down to you and how you structure your time. Although the advice is crucial, it is not practical to spend so much time planning out your day. Situations can change at any time. You need to plan out what you're going to do today, the following morning, and your next highest priority task. Set a time limit and move on.

[dothebeats]

This is, IMO, one of the skills that if you didn't know how to at first, will eventually be hard to learn since your brain is wired to do a certain thing and it will continue to do so unless you really try hard enough. I am still struggling to manage my time even though I can do it at times. Having a full-time job also messes up your sense of time as 8-12 hours of your time can be eaten up by work alone. Time management is easier said than done for most people, and I envy those who can get a lot from their day just because they know how to prioritize things. Most successful businessmen have great time management, that to them, every second counts.

[Swordsoffreedom]

I agree that it's a great skill.

I think my problem right now is my mind. I am hopeful that I can overcome it in the future.

It's not just you, this is a problem we're all facing. Everyone wants to have more time, do more things to have a fulfilling life, but it is really difficult. I always have a daily and weekly planner for my work and daily activities but honestly, it never worked out the way I had planned, it was just too hard to do. My main job causes me a lot of stress, so after work, I need to take a short nap to relieve fatigue instead of rushing into my scheduled work or spending time with my family.

Time is a valuable resource that when lost, can never be recovered anymore.

In the past, these two factors were the most difficult for me to eliminate in managing time. often my tasks become piled up as a result of my actions that are always procrastinating. procrastination is also closely related to the presence of distractions that distract us from work. be it a hobby or something. These two factors seem to be related to each other. But this happens as a result of us not making a schedule for each of our daily activities. when time schedules for work and other activities have been made and adjustments are made so that work and pleasure do not conflict. then the problem can be solved. so that we become calmer when working and we also become more able to enjoy our vacation time. so that's where the importance of managing time and making a schedule that has been adjusted.

No don't say sorry. No one is perfect and for sure that even the most successful people can sometimes fail to manage their time properly. Once you missed a thing that is supposed to be in your schedule, then what can you do? Nothing but what you did is right. Just let it flow. Remember, there's still tomorrow and you can always try again next time.

There are times that we are down or weak, that is why procrastinate but experts say that it's fine. Just work according to your mood. You didn't work in a company anymore because you don't want to be controlled but that is one of the reason on why many of us want's to quit as well and be our own boss.

Time is the most precious commodity in our life, it is a great topic to discuss, thanks for creating this thread. Time management is very important in our studies, career, social life and whatever activity we perform from dawn to dusk. It is a process to manage time in a way that each activity gets sufficient time to achieve targeted results. It is a skill that we learn gradually and it increases our capacity to get things done onetime without missing deadlines.

Perfection is impossible and it's better that we always try our best,
always try to manage the time as best as possible and that's important,
but apart from that we have to keep enjoying

[bestcoins1]

Perfection is impossible and it's better that we always try our best,
always try to manage the time as best as possible and that's important,
but apart from that we have to keep enjoying

Enjoy is a very simple and relaxing thing, but if you enjoy too much every day, then there is no time that you can manage to get better. Because managing time every day is not easy because sometimes there are things that unexpectedly happen around you so you need to spend more time to finish them. So just enjoy it as necessary and don't be too overly because it will also make someone very lazy and far from successful.

It is either overcome it or be used to it.  Our body tends to adjust to whatever workload we have.  So definitely in due time, you will get used to the hard work, but even so, you need to keep yourself healthy.  And I think the thread topic really suit your situation well.


I have been weighing my activities these past few days, since I also have work and at the same time sidelines, though my schedule isn't as hectic as xSkylarx, I found myself getting hooked on movies and donghua series, eating my free time.  I have made revisions to my scheduling and yet it all goes back to where I start.  So for us to have better time management, I think we have to give up things that are not productive and replace them with either relaxation to give ourselves time to release stress or use it to do our main concerns in orde to finish the work earlier.

5. End procrastination: With procrastination, you’re never going to get anything done. You would keep pushing things to do at a later date until they pile up and become a huge problem later on.

procrastination is a hard thing for me to get rid of,
especially in the morning, it feels very lazy, even though if you think about it that morning is still fresh, but for some reason it feels so lazy.

maybe someone wants to give input or suggestions, to overcome the problem of procrastinating work.

[Fara Chan]

Time management will be formed when someone is able to pursue what they want to achieve, time is an important part for someone.
Set goals: Life should have a purpose, when one wants to achieve what he wants.
Plan: is an important part before setting goals, because the plan is a process that we will do.
The rest we must have duties and delegations in determining whatever we want to achieve, any disturbance must be resisted and used as a benchmark to continue to grow, thus we will continue to walk without neglecting the basic process that we must do.

[bitzizzix]

If you don't have a priority scale, then time will mess things up. If you have a priority scale then time is your main weapon.
and those who practice good time management can achieve their goals and objectives better, and do so in less time. But it's not easy, and the most important thing for me is to eat regularly and do my job and side job on time because both can give me income which should be prioritized. And apart from that get enough rest and also take time to exercise, and if there is free time I can do anything and also hold meetings or entertain myself.
everyone has different time management because they feel comfortable and used to the time they spend and the most important thing is they can manage it well and can also do what needs to be done well, the most important thing is health.

5. End procrastination: With procrastination, you’re never going to get anything done. You would keep pushing things to do at a later date until they pile up and become a huge problem later on.

Procrastination is really scary. You think that delaying your works and tasks are fun because you can spend it for something else that is not for work, but in the end you just make yourself huge problem than before with so many stuff to do within tight deadline. It's also my nightmare in my entire life, it's so hard to remove this bad behavior. Doing it slowly but sure instead of just procrastinating then do it in matter of time limit.

[Sayakaaja]

time is gold. that means, time is something that is very valuable and can never be repeated.

appreciate, your time and always fill that time with something useful. often many people, who regret that they fill their time with something in vain.

but sometimes, i also like to procrastinate. and always do something at the end. I really want to get rid of my bad habit, which is always being lazy and procrastinating, and always regretting at the end.

[Mauser]

Time is a valuable resource that when lost, can never be recovered anymore.

That is a very valuable lesson, it probably took me 20 years to learn that. When we are young time seems like a never ending resources, we don't prioritise and when looking back many years later, we realise that we wasted a lot time. Having a fixed goal and working towards it is one of the best motivations for myself. I wish I would have started earlier with to follow it, I would probably have more focus in my life. The main problem for me was that I didn't want to believe the old guys trying to teach me that. In high-school we had seminars about career building and to be successful in a business environment. It was usually by 50+ year old man who tried to tell us what to follow in life. For me it was very hard to accept anything by such older people. Now I wish I had listen closer to them, time is a very precious resource.

I specially thank the OP for these informed and elaborate ways to manage our time. Time is money, everything is not about the physical cash, how we could effectively utilize the time we have is so beneficial. This is priceless if I must say, and we all have to learn from this to be more productive in our day-to-day activities. It is important to refine our scaled schedules on preferences and be proactive with the more choices that will add value to our lives.

Make yourself to be productive as much as possible on which it would really be that normal that you should really make use of your time well so that you will really be able to execute out your plans and goals in life.

Wasting up too much time would really be simply means on wasting too much opportunity on making yourself better not only on being productive but also talks about on financial aspect.

This is one of the most important thing in life on which time management is really something crucial for someone to consider on doing so.
Dont waste up specially on your time.Make yourself productive as much as possible.

Unfortunately there are so many ways in which people waste their time these days that time management went from a nice skill to have to an absolute must, for example people waste simply too much time on social media, now do not get me wrong if someone wants to spend some time catching up with what their friends have been doing that is fine, but there are people that waste several hours on this every day, if they dedicated the same amount of time to learning a new language they will probably learn a new one each year with the time they waste on social media.

[Hydrogen]

No matter how rich or poor someone is, they only have 23.9 hours in a day to work with. It could be fair to say time management is the difference between success and failure, wealth or poverty.

We usually measure the cost and value of things in terms of monetary cost. The price tag attached to things. The amount of time spent on something however could be a better unit of measure. Time management and distribution of time might also be a good indicator of where our interests and thoughts lie.

Personal organizers were once considered the high tech applications to plan and keep track of things. In the information era perhaps we can have personal time management apps that record how much time we spend on various things. I would expect a graph chart of how people spend their time could be eye opening, if it were recorded in a way that made it easy to read and categorize.

[ChiNgadOr]

I am so happy to see this and I hope this would be help some of us that don't know how to manage time or work things out with the right timing. This listed procedures we need to take to follow timing is very important having a schedule that will guide us along to accomplish what ever we intend to work on.
As an investor, we need to out this also on how we invest in cryptocurrency projects not investing blindly without taking a due process that will direct us how we can easily accomplish our need or plans.

I too thank OP for creating thread on such important topic which is very crucial in our life and determines the path to achieve our goals. We meet so many people in our social life who are very successful because they make best use of time with proper time management. It is an art & smart way to organize and plan your activities i such a way that all activities get adequate time to achieve what you planned for without any stress.

You didn't work in a company anymore because you don't want to be controlled but that is one of the reason on why many of us want's to quit as well and be our own boss.

Doing everything if forced of course the results will not be too satisfying. And there's nothing wrong with being an easygoing person.

But there are times when a push comes that makes us change. when it comes to time management, my previous time management was very messy. I procrastinate more. And it turns out that these rights have an impact on the effectiveness of my business. so in the end I tried to get used to making a schedule of all my daily activities. at first I broke a lot or missed the schedule that I had made.
But as time goes by now I have become more disciplined in time.

Work and vacation schedules have their respective portions. because I don't work for someone else's company. I have an independent business and have an employee. Maybe the change that happened to me was because I had to set a good example for my employees. because the habits of employees are sometimes always not much different from the boss. if a boss is disciplined in time, then his employees will try to follow his boss. that's what I believe based on experience having previously worked for other people's companies and incidentally my former boss was a disciplined person. and I also at that time as an employee was trying to be more disciplined. although in the end I stopped and decided to open an independent business. and before having employees I really messed up in time discipline. But after having employees, then I improve myself. even though it feels heavy at first and of course it takes time. but over time everything got used to it.

time is the most important period in this life. and time is the most important thing.

if we underestimate the time wasted too much, it will be something detrimental.

As much as possible we should appreciate the time while it's still there. especially when it's empty, there's no activity.

We must always be grateful to God. that until now, we can have a meaningful time in this short life.

the struggle, and the hard work that we have done until now, is a valuable time and experience.

Time management is indeed very important to be able to carry out all the activities that we have created. And if we still can't manage our time properly, we just need to try it continuously and start to be disciplined. It's a bit hard to start or try it because we are used to what we are doing now, so this requires more effort to make new habits. Thus, we can leave old habits and have new habits that are better than before where we can have good timing for our lives. I am also still trying to learn about time management.

management is a beautiful science, my mother always said that a wife must be a strong woman, and must master time management and finance well (this applies in my region, but maybe in each region is different). Successful people are those who are able to manage their time and money well so that every opportunity can be used and every mistake can be avoided.

Proper time management is the key for us to handle all aspects of our lives properly. With proper time management, we can deal with all the life challenges that might be thrown at us. We can also grab all the opportunities that life could offer without having conflicts. I agree that successful people are those who can handle and manage their time as well as their finances wisely. They're the ones who are more disciplined and can control their urges and emotions the right way.

We do all know that time is gold and we should really properly be managing our time as its finest or the most possible right way on making ourselves to be that productive so that it won't really be that
a wasteful thing to be consider on and finding yourself on the right track on achieving your goals on the fastest and efficient way as possible. Not only on time management but also in emotional aspect
as well where these things could affect out on your decisions right ahead. Lots of factors which are really that needed and if you do able to follow out then you wouldnt
really be finding things to be difficult when it comes to making decisions.

[ChiBitCTy]

As someone with a hinge of OCD, I have to say it's a bonus when it comes to Time Management.  I certainly agree with most of your write up here and try and follow many of these same rules/guidelines.  For me time management comes down to making sure you write down everything that you need to do.  I think this is the number one way to manage your time efficiently, as you have something written "in stone" that can keep you accountable.

Yes, time will never turn back because we have gone one by one. We can only learn from what we have done and keep trying to do the best for ourselves. And if we can take lessons from what we do, we can develop ourselves to be better and more productive than before because we can see what we have to change or fix. Here we have to keep trying one by one and by learning from before, we know that there is something we still need to do to improve everything. And related to the emotional aspect, we must also learn to manage emotions well because it can affect the decisions we make. And this will never be easy but if we keep trying, we will get through it well.

Not everyone can manage time well, that's why we must be able to manage time well because it is one of our aspects for success. Many people fail because they fail to manage their time, work becomes neglected, work that should be completed quickly must be hampered because they are not good at managing their time. I remember one proverb that says "time is money" that proves that time is something very fundamental that we really have to appreciate.

Indeed management knowledge is one of the keys to success. even comfort in life will feel more maximal if we are good at managing everything in our life. not just a matter of time management. but we also need to manage everything in our life. because social and economic life is a life that cannot be separated from the science of management. Often we take time management for granted. even though it can have a big impact on our lives. However, the most difficult part of time management is the discipline in complying with and implementing it.

There are many effective techniques and methods about time management, but I think the intelligence of the person determines everything. While some people with practical intelligence can quickly find solutions to the problems they encounter, some people cannot find solutions even for the smallest problems despite their training and work experience. I also agree that having a stress-free clear mind is an important factor, but some people also have a god-given talent and I think that's the most important factor...

[harapan]

Good write OP there's no way that Time Management won't go along with Preparations. They work hand in hand as lack of Preparations will cause am to those waiting for something big. Apart from that is to learn how to manage people I mean people management. If one doesn't know how to control and manage the workers he has even if they have bad attitudes, he'll be left with nobody bto work for  him.

[Furious 7]

It's a good thing but management like this is definitely something that is very difficult to do and I am one of those people who has a lot of trouble doing that even though I have been trying my best until now.
Laziness and sometimes always thinking about delaying is one of the problems that can't be avoided in this case so that sometimes things like that actually interfere with managing what at first seems to be able to do it becomes quite difficult to do.

[minime0105]

Sometimes people do not understand what we really mean by management of coins, so i believe that time is most of the things a human being supposed to have as a major challenges, because utilization of time is what really matters in the life of everything, many people have be out of function or not to achieve and actualized their time factor today because of not knowing the important of time, this topic is like a world of encouragement and realized the important of time and utilization of time factor

[KingsDen]

Time management is a great skill or gift to anyone, to some it is given them by nature or from training by parents while some learn how to manage time. Time management might not be complete without task management, a good manager should be able to manage both time and task. One can be a very good time manager but lagging behind in accomplishing task.

Time is a very precious asset which waits for no one, if you want to underate the capacity or the ability of time to detect or direct your life just imagine how fast you are growing old.
Time management is not only needed by the companies it is also needed by individual and even in the family to get things done at the appropriate time.

[Reid]

I tried it, time management, but I don't really like the result. When things are being done repeatedly it gets to the point that it becomes a stressful kind of work. I changed my way of doing things to being unpredictable.
There's still a goal, that is mandatory. But you don't do things like a job, you do it because you love it. And when you find that one thing that you really love then everything will be on its road to success. You get to enjoy it without anyone telling you about time.

Without a doubt it is difficult but it has to be done especially when you are young, I say this because the more you do something the greater the chances that it becomes a habit, so if you start young then the easier it will become to manage your time, also when we are young that is when we are the healthiest and we have the most energy so we can do a lot of things in 24 hours, something which is not necessarily true when we get older as even if we want we do not have the same energy as when we were young.

[uneng]

Time management requires practice. Especially nowadays with so many distractions everywhere at the reach of our fingers through technological gadgets and internet. You may be concentrated on your daily tasks, but your smartphone won't stop ringing each new notification arriving in real time. Many people fail in managing their time, because they have to see what people are talking to them and talking about on social medias several times a hour, so the tasks they must complete and that should be the focus of their day stay in second plan, consequently delaying many other tasks of their routine.

In the end, these people don't succeed completing their daily tasks (because they didn't manage their time properly), or they will end their day too late, consequently prejudicing the dynamics of the next day, since they go to the bed after the recommended hour. The conclusion is that their lives become a snowball of growing problems and unfinished tasks, because doesn't matter how much time they have, it's never enough!

It will depend on your perception of doing that repetitive work. For others, it's becoming easy when you're used to that task by doing it many times.
But if you think that it's a stressful thing for you, you better do something else, or else you'll put your mental health at risk because of it.
Time management certainly is a skill that not that many can do and that's why if someone can do that, he can always apply it to most things that he do.

Not that other people cant really do such thing, it is really just that they arent really that serious on applying out that proper time management well.Somehow its true that not all arent really that not good when

it comes to their time management.If you do really love the things you've been doing on a proper time manner or on an ordered way then it wont really be something that stressful for your part.

This isnt something that everyone could able to handle it on but with some realistic approach and minding too much of your time.Then its really that impossible for someone not able to do so.
Time management is really important on making yourself to be that productive specially when you are dealing with multiple activities or various investment or having jobs
which proper management of your time would really be that crucial.So its really important to be mindful in regarding this area.

Yeah, I also have that idea that it's impossible someone may not do it. Everyone can but I think they'll only be pushed to that when they've been doing a lot of things and they have to manage their time properly.
But there are people that will just stop from there because they really can't and that's understandable if that's the limit that they can do but, this is a practice that can be done by anyone.

Time is the most important thing in our lives, most of us neglect time by doing things that are not useful, time is wasted and when it is old then it will regret, after seeing the importance of time then use time for the best and productive things, for example is during the day then we have to Learn and work and when it is late, then rest or sleep so that when we wake up we can be productive.

[Bitcoin2009]

Time is the most important thing and asset in our lives, never waste time with useless things like sleeping too much, watching tv for too long and so on, people will realize and feel that time is very expensive when they are old and unproductive so many things missed.

[Maidak]

Time is the most important thing and asset in our lives, never waste time with useless things like sleeping too much, watching tv for too long and so on, people will realize and feel that time is very expensive when they are old and unproductive so many things missed.

In my opinion, proper sleep is very important for a person.  

Therefore, you can not save on sleep.  Such saved hours of time will not be productive.  A sleepy person will not be able to focus on important things and will be inefficient.  

In a dream, the brain processes all the information of the current day, relieving the subconscious of unnecessary emotions and information.  

At the same time, the human body rests, and all biochemical processes in the body are brought to a stable state.  Sleep is very beneficial for health.  

Time management practices should not, in my opinion.  lead to savings on sleep.

We can limit TV viewing or cut time for other habits but with sleep and time to relax, it's absolutely essential to us. I also worked without sleep and I finished the work earlier than expected but in the end the quality was not very good. When we lack sleep or stress too much, we will not be able to focus and be sharp to handle the work in the best way. I will not consider sleep a waste of time, getting enough sleep is very important for your health and work.

[BRINIRHA]

There is a theory that when planning your time, you first need to plan your entertainment, rest and sleep.  

This will motivate you to work quickly and very efficiently.  A quality rest will allow you to fully restore your vitality.  

In addition, high-quality recreation and entertainment require sufficient financial resources.  Accordingly, motivation appears in making money and the brain focuses on this goal.  

All this helps to increase your efficiency and makes your time management really useful.

I think planning as you say makes sense in building motivation for ourselves to be more enthusiastic at work. because sometimes most of us who are busy working always don't have much time to prepare for the holidays in planning the time. so that work becomes saturated and less enthusiastic. yeah I've experienced it. when doing work it became hard because there was no motivation in me at that time. I think I will include this idea in my planning.

[Ziskinberg]

Success - is what we get from effective time management but honestly, many individuals had to fail to do this consistently.
That is why in a company, there is a head leader from each branch or office to take responsibility for implementing the plan and as well to monitor how the company is going. A lack of Time management and proper planning will reflect in the outcomes of work daily, weekly, and monthly. And not a surprise that the results are not acceptable. And we can do it habitually and as an individual, no way we never reach our goal and hit our target.

[AicecreaME]

Those who do time management are very organized people. Time management are for responsible people, they value their time doing important things in their life, they always respect every minutes or even seconds on their activities, that's why they always finish their works, assignments, plans, etc...
I'm more like a multitasking person, I'm more productive when I'm doing multiple things at once because I don't have much time left to finish it.

Not everyone can multitask like you, maybe you are a rare case. I can't do many things at once, but I know how to organize everything to get the best out of it. It is true that everyone will have a different plan and way of working, as long as we can get the job done.

[Punakawan]

Time is something that can distinguish whether we will be successful or fail, most people just waste time for things that are not useful, they think that time will be forever so that they don't care about it, and when they have no time they will regret and This is an important lesson for us to use time effectively.
