TIME MANAGEMENT


I AM REALIZING NOW, THAT MY PRIME AND FOREMOST NEED NOWDAYS IS TO MANAGE MY TIME. I HAVE NEVER CARED FOR TIME SO FAR. BUT I UNDERSTAND NOW THAT, "THE ONE WHO DOES NOT CARE FOR TIME, TIME NEVER CARES FOR HIM/HER." ONE SHOULD MANAGE HIS/HER TIME AND UTILIZE IT TO ITS MAXIMUM. I THOUGHT ABOUT HOW I AM USING MY TIME RIGHT NOW AND HOW I CAN IMPROVE MY TIME MANAGEMENT SKILLS. I FOUND, I AM DOING WRONG THINGS AT WRONG TIME. FOR EXAMPLE, READING IS AN ACTIVITY THAT SHOULD BE DONE, WHEN THERE IS QUIET ATMOSPHERE AROUND. BUT I USED TO READ AT THE TIME WHEN THERE WAS NOISY ATMOSHPHERE. APART FROM THIS, I FOUND I NEVER PRIORITIZE MY DAILY ACTIVITIES. I USED TO DO ACTIVITIES AS THEY CAME TO MY MIND. BUT NOW I HAVE DECIDED TO GIVE PRIORITIES TO MY DAILY ACTIVITIES BEFORE HAND, SO THAT I CAN GET MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE FROM MYSELF. GIVING THE MOST PRIORITY TO THE MOST IMPORTANT WORK AND LESS PRIORITY TO LESS IMPORTANT WORK CAN GIVE ME A FEELING OF SATISFACTION THAT I HAVE COMPLETED AND NOT DELAYED THE MOST IMPORTANT ACTIVITY. AND I WILL NOT HAVE TO REPENT ABOUT LESS IMPORTANT THINGS, IF I MISSED THEM.


I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD LEARN TO MANAGE THEIR TIME, BECAUSE EVERYONE HAS THE LIMITED TIME, ONE CANNOT EXTEND NUMBER OF HOURS PER DAY. BUT ONE CAN UTILIZE THAT TIME TO GET THE MOST OUT OF IT.

I RECALLED SOMETHING THAT I LEARNED IN SCHOOL ABOUT TIME, IT WAS EXAMPLE LIKE HAVING BIG AND SMALL BALLS TO BE PUT IN THE BOTTLE SO THAT BOTTLE CAN BE FILLED WITH MAXIMUM NUMBER OF BALLS. IF ONE TRIES TO PUT BALLS IN THE BOTTLE WITHOUT ANY PRIORITY, ONE CANNOT FILL THE BOTTLE WITH MAXIMUM BALLS. IN ORDER TO FILL THE BOTTLE WITH MAXIMUM NUMBER OF BALLS ONE SHOULD UNDERSTAND TO WHICH BALLS ONE SHOULD GIVE PRIORITY. HENCE, TIME MANAGEMENT IS ALL ABOUT GIVING PRIORITY TO THE MOST IMPORTANT WORK, AND TAKING MAXIMUM BENEFIT FROM IT.
