Time Management Tips/Skills


 

1. Set goals correctly

Set goals that are achievable and measurable. Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timely.

 2. Prioritize wisely

Prioritize tasks based on importance and urgency. For example, look at your daily tasks and determine which are: Important and urgent

3. Set a time limit to complete a task

Setting time constraints for completing tasks helps you be more focused and efficient. Making the small extra effort to decide on how much time you need to allot for each task can also help you recognize potential problems before they arise. That way you can make plans for dealing with them.

4. Take a break between tasks

When doing a lot of tasks without a break, it is harder to stay focused and motivated. For e.g. going for a short walk, or meditating.

 5. Organize yourself

Utilize your calendar for more long-term time management. Write down the deadlines for projects, or for tasks that are part of completing the overall project. For example, you might need to plan a meeting to discuss cash flow on a day when you know the company CFO/MD is available.

 6. Remove non-essential tasks/activities

It is important to remove excess activities or tasks. Determine what is significant and what deserves your time. 

7. Plan ahead

Make sure you start every day with a clear idea of what you need to do – what needs to get done THAT DAY.
