Time and Getting Things Done

November 17th, 2009, Author: Jim Cassa, Categories: Empowerment

Time. There never seems enough of it. The quality of our lives depends of what we do with our time. Hitler used his time poorly. Mother Teresa used her time well.

We all have the same amount of time. The beggar in the street and the rich rock star are both in the same boat. Time favors no man or woman. It flows like a river for us all at a constant speed.

More Time Please

All of us would like to make the best use of our time. Time is precious, goes the cliche, yet we somehow squander this valuable resource of ours. Let us see if we can make better use of time. “I would like to order more time please! Minus the fries. “

Concentration

When there is a task to achieve focus on it putting all else to the side. Concentration on your task gives you power. Concentration puts you on the road of achievement.

Eliminate the clutter and non related items. For example I am writing this blog post with full attention to it. There are many other tasks I have to do today. Gardening, shopping, and cleaning the house are activities that have to done one by one. Nevertheless while I am blogging this gets my full concentration and energy. This method builds value into what you do.

Time Saving Methods

Here are some time saving tips. Make a daily list of what you want to achieve. I like to make my list the day before. I find the next day more fulfilling and productive with this method. The subconscious mind has chance to sleep on it so it also gets a crack at solving my problems and working with me on my daily tasks.

Upon awakening I have new ideas, new inspiration, and unique methods to tackle what I am working on. Giving each task a priority is a good idea. Do the most important things first. Then the next important and so on.

Identify all the time wasters in your life and keep them to a minimum. A time waster is something that does not contribute to your ideals and goals.

Enjoy yourself. When you value time it respects you. Have fun with what you are doing and use time for something you find worthwhile.

Well that is it. It is time for me to go. ( forgive me for the corny joke, they only get worse )
