Time Management Skills

 


  Every time we wake up not only to meet all deadlines, but we want to make a healthy breakfast, watch Youtube, check e-mail, and be ready to go to work. Sadly, there is one thing we forget. We forget to have a shower. Time flies as always. That makes times a variable that can be hard to control and monitor. Once time has slipped away, you never get it back. 

  It's all about personal time management. In a business environment where employees and skilled professionals are hired based on their input and productivity at a set time. They will not only keep better track of time but also have the opportunity to track their progress in projects. If you never seem to have enough time, better time management may help you regain control of your days. Whether it's in your job or lifestyle. So let's take a closer look to learn about time management. 

  Prioritise wisely. When you organise your to-do list, prioritisation is key for successful time management. Do your most important tasks in the morning. All those stressful tasks must do in the morning. The reason is simple, you have the most energy in the morning, so you will be able to tackle the task efficiently. If you have 20 tasks given today, how many of them do you truly need to accomplish?

  Avoid the urge to multitask. This is one of the simplest time management tips for work, yet it can be one of the hardest to follow. You lose time and decrease productivity when switching from one task to another. Focus on one task at a time. Avoid doing half work, which means abandoning your current task and doing something else entirely. That is not only bad time management but also bad for your concentration.

  Avoid perfection. Don't let the perfect be the enemy number one of the good. It does not mean being careless, but perfection can drag you down. Once you've finished a task and given it your best, you have to move on. Effective time management is ultimately a result of having the right attitude and commitment to your goals. Software tools can help you manage time effectively with plenty of calenders and time-tracking devices.

  So, in conclusion, whatever tips or tools you use, keep in mind to use your time wisely. Manage your time instead of letting it manage you. Moreover, make time for rest and relaxation to keep you happy and motivated all throughout your life. Thank you for the time to read this article. Have a nice day 😀.

Leader Vs Boss

    Some people might use the terms "boss" and "leader" interchangeably, but that's not entirely accurate. The truth is, some bosses are simply a boss. They have attained a position in the management section of the corporate pyramid. Those positions alone don't make them leaders. They are just pushing their employers while "sitting down". However, bosses can become leaders, and doing so should become a priority for those who want to effectively lead in the workplace. So, what is the difference between a leader and a boss?   A boss refers to an individual who is in charge of the employee or an organisation. He exercises control over employees, assigns tasks, and duties to them, and is entitled to take decisions on some matters. There is no formal title like "boss" in the organisational chart, but the term indicates a person who is the owner or appointed as head of the organisation, department, or division.   On the other hand, the term lea

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone? Quite a lot, isn't it?   Smartphones and text messaging help partners display love and affection to each other when they are physically apart. However, what happens when smart

Early Birds and Night Owls

  In this world, there are two kinds of people in this world, people who love to hear birds chirping in the morning, and people who wish the birds had a mute button somewhere. Someone likes the sun going up, someone likes the sun drowning to keep the night up. In other words, early birds and night owls. So, which one are you?    Early birds or morning people. They are awake in the morning and love to welcome the new day. Early birds tend to go to bed early, wake up early, and feel their best as the day begins. As a general rule, early birds find a society more accommodating than night owls do. Early birds generally have an easier time adjusting to standard daytime schedules.    On the other hand, night owls or night people tend to stay up late, enjoy sleeping in, have more energy at night, and feel tired after waking up early. Night owls do have a few downsides. They might have a harder time holding a traditional job. Young night owls might have trouble making a fixed school or univers
