How to Manage Your Time Effectively

It has been said that “Time is Money” – but I disagree. Isn’t Time really LIFE? At the end of your  life, can you even mangine saying to yourself, “I wish I’d made more money.” It’s more likely you’d be thinking “I wish I’d had more TIME – time to enjoy my life more.” Here are my favorite strategies for managing that most precious of all resources – TIME.

61.           

You can’t find something you’ve lost when you don’t know where you might have lost it in the first place. So keep track of the exact time you begin and end an activity, and write down a few words to describe the activity. This requires you to be really honest with yourself and track your time – so if you spent 23 minutes chatting with coworkers over coffee – write it down EXACTLY!

62.       

Review your time logs（记录）and start to classify the tasks into categories（范畴）. You will create these categories yourself, and you and as brief as possible. Some examples might be: Administration, Business Development, Sales & Marketing, Com[uter, etc. You will then sum up how much time you spent doing tasks or activities for each category, in the exact number of minutes. You might also do a little math, to figure the percentage of time each category takes out of each day.

63.             

If you were honest and diligent, chances are that you had suddenly awakened after you reviewed your daily time logs. You no doubt can see where the time is wasted – and now you’re ready to make a better schedule. Make the best of your time by considering when you’re at your best for certain tasks, by grouping similar tasks together for greater efficiency, and by setting aside certain time for doing uninterrupted work. Think where different tasks can best fit into your day. Then actually write this routine down and post it where you’re see it every day.

64.           

You can create your own easy tools to do this. On oen sheet of paper, create 5 sections: High Priorities（优先）, Secondary Priorities, People to Contact, Telephone calls, and Schedule. You can fill this out cach day, first thing in the morning. Each day, ask yourself: “If nothing else gets done today, what are the one or two items that absolutely. MIST be done?” You should also regularly go back to the time logging exercise, so you can determine if you are slipping back into those old had habits and take immediate steps to get back on track.

65.          

More often than not, we take on more than we should because we don’t want to hurt someone else’s feelings. When we burden ourselves too much, we are not only creating unnecessary stress in our lives, but we are also creating potential situations where we cannot deliever what we’ve promised. We also don’t realize that when we can’t deliever what we’re promised, we can unintentionally cause more pain than if we’d had turned that down in the first place, Remember, you’re not doing any favors for yourself or anyone else by taking on more than you can reasonably deliver.

 Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph． There is one extra heading which you do not need．

A． Don’t overlook talented people around you B． Seize the opportunity when it comes up C． Stay humble D． Find the system that works for your style E． Keep Honest Forever F． Work hard

1. __________

Lin（Jeremy Shu-How Lin）got to start for the Knicks because they had to start him． They had too many injuries． Baron Davis was gone． The other point guards were out． Carmelo Anthony was injured． Amare Stoudemire had to leave the team because of a family death． Lin could have squandered the opportunity and we would have never have noticed． But he made the most of it． You never know when opportunities are going to arise in life． Often, they’re when you least expect them． Make the most of them． Don’t waster them．

2. __________

Lin isn’t Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant． He’s not a pure scorer． He’s a passer and distributor – who can also score very well． It didn’t work for him in Golden State or Houston – where he was before landing at the Knicks． But Mike D’Antoni’s system at the Knicks has been perfect for him to show off his strengths． You’ve got to do your best to understand what your strengths are and then ensure that you’re in a system （a job or organization or industry） that is a good fit for those strengths． Otherwise, people overlook the talents you bring to the table．

3. __________

You probably manage people at your own company today． Are you sure you don’t have a Jeremy Lin living among you now? How do you know that “Mike” couldn’t do amazing things if you gave him a new project to run with? How do you know “Sarah” isn’t the right person to take the open job in London that you’ve been talking over with your colleagues? We put people around us in boxes． He’s from Harvard． He’s Asian-American． Not sure he can play． How many assumptions have you made about talent around you? Don’t be like the General Managers in Golden State and Houston, and let talent slip through your fingers． With all their money, scouts（球探）, and testing, they didn’t have a clue what they had in their hands． Do you know what your people （or even yourself） are really capable of? Take off the blinders of assumptions you wear when you look at the world．

4. __________

If you one day are lucky enough to have newspapers want to put you on the cover in order to sell more, don’t let it get to your head． It’s been remarkable watching how humble Lin remains through all this media craze． It makes his teammates and fans love him that much more．

5. __________

Lin couldn’t have seized his opportunity if he hadn’t worked like crazy for years perfecting his skills． There are no short cuts to hard work． Success is a by product of that． If you’ve got a Tiger Mom who’s always pushed you to work hard, great． If not, let your conscience be your own Tiger Mom! Get up early, stay up late． Nobody gave Lin any free passes． Why should you get any? You can only control what you control and that means you’ve got to work harder than anyone else you know．

How to manage your time

It is very important to manage your time wisely. As you get older, you will have more responsibilities. You will find it easier to succeed if you learn to manage your time well.

61______________________．　　　　　　　　

Write down major due dates on your calendar for the semester. Estimate how long it will take to do each project. Allow yourself more time than you think you will really need. Make a master schedule which should include the following activities：

—all required school activities

—work schedule

—after school activities

—blank spaces for unknown activities

A master schedule can help you keep track of all the things that you need to do. If you know what you have to do and when you need to do it, you can prepare better to finish it on time.

62____________________．　　　　　　　　

Plan when to do all your tasks for the week. Schedule time to study for tests, read your textbooks, write papers, go to work, be at meetings. Leave enough time for your household duties.

63_________________．　　　　

Make a “to do” list the night before or the first thing in the morning. If you write down what you need to do, your mind will be free to study. You won't worry and spend time thinking about what you have to do next.

64___________________．　　　　　　　　

Use it for a few weeks, then ask yourself some questions. Are you getting your schoolwork done on time? Are you getting more things done? Do you feel you have control of your time?

Yes? Then you should look at your schedule to see how it can be improved. The following things may help you.

65_______________．　　　　　　　　

Break the big tasks down until they are small enough that you feel you know about how long it will take to complete them. Then fit them into your schedule. Follow your schedule closely. Even a well­-planned schedule can't help you if you don't follow it.
