Do you have a limited amount of time and too much to get done? If so, it’s time to learn how to manage your time. Let’s jump right into ten rapid-fire time management tips.<\/p>\n

Add Time Limits to Tasks<\/h2>\n

As you create your to-do list, add an allotted amount of time to complete each task. This will keep you from getting absorbed in a specific task and keep you aware of the passing time.<\/p>\n

Use a Calendar (Physical or Digital)<\/h2>\n

Keep track of your future commitments by maintaining a physical or digital calendar.<\/p>\n

Understand Your Deadlines<\/h2>\n

Every task on your to-do list should have a deadline. If it doesn’t, assign a deadline or ask for a deadline from the person who gave you the task.<\/p>\n

Create a Daily Plan<\/h2>\n

Craft a plan every day when you get into the office, or even when you wake up.<\/p>\n

Have a Clock in Your Line of Sight<\/h2>\n

Whatever it is you're working on, add a clock (beyond the one on your computer) to your line of sight. This practice will make you intimately aware of the time, which in turn will keep you on task.<\/p>\n

Practice Ignoring Distractions<\/h2>\n

Distractions are the enemy of time management. Become aware of your distractions and eliminate them.<\/p>\n

Track How Much Time You Spend<\/h2>\n

How much time is each task taking you? Is it in line with the allotted time that you designated?<\/p>\n

Eliminate Tasks that Waste Time<\/h2>\n

Don’t be afraid to cut a task, or reduce, such as checking email throughout the day.<\/p>\n

Delegate When Possible<\/h2>\n

Can someone else take a task off your plate? Let them.<\/p>\n

Prioritize Your To-Do List<\/h2>\n

Not all tasks have the same priority. As you create your to-do list, assign priorities.<\/p>\n
