Time Management Tips
Time. Who's got any? I know most of us have a problem balancing work, kids, house, chores, activies, etc. What can you do to improve your focus?
If I knew the answer I'd be rich, but here are some tips to help you help yourself:
- Learn to say "no".
- Work is work. Play is play.
- Don't multitask when you're trying to spend time with your family.
- If you have trouble giving time to projects, family, etc. come up with a calendar with the times for each activity spelled out and stick with it.
- Do certain chores on certain days and/or times.
- Don't answer the phone when you're on a deadline, eating dinner, or at a function.
- Look at your emails every morning and don't look at the jokes or junk emails.
- Make a to do list each morning before work in order of importance.
- Don't go to every after hours event.
- Set business hours and don't accept phone calls after that time.
If you can try to do these you may keep some of your sanity!
