| Two Most Important Time Management Questions
Have you ever found yourself thinking about work when you were
supposed to be enjoying time with your family
or thinking about
your plans for the evening during your work day? Nearly every
day, I hear someone tell me they wished there were more hours in
the day or that they feel overwhelmed with too many things
happening at once. There are two questions, if you get in the
habit of asking yourself and then give yourself an honest answer
that can immediately help you become more effective.
Question One: "Is what I am doing right now moving me closer to
my goals?" By stopping and asking yourself that simple
question, you will quickly be able to identify whether or not
you are working in the right area or just wasting your time.
And if you are wasting your time on something not important to
you, STOP IMMEDIATELY and move on to something meaningful.
Question Two: "Is what I am doing RIGHT NOW the most valuable
use of my time?" By focusing on what is truly the most valuable
use of your time, you will avoid spending extra time and effort
keeping yourself busy rather than being productive. The
behavior that I most commonly observe in people who are feeling
overwhelmed is that they are confusing ACTIVITY with
ACCOMPLISHMENT. Many of our students have commented that by
forming the habit of asking these two questions, they not only
find themselves accomplishing more than they did in the past,
they often find that they are doing more in LESS time. You can
not manage time, but you can certainly manage your focus. I
look forward to hearing YOUR success stories as you begin asking
yourself the two most important time management questions.
