Manage Yourself, Not Your Time

These days, a lot of us have busy schedules. Between work, school, family, interests, and everything else we want to get done, time is at a premium. Unfortunately, a lot of us fall short in our efforts to manage our time effectively. So why do people fail to manage their time? Why do they plan well but not execute? Why do they find it so hard to get things done? The answer is simple: many people tend to focus more on time, and less on themselves. The fact of the matter is though, you cannot control or manage time. We all have the same number of hours in a day, and you can’t get an extra hour no matter how good, you are.


How do you effectively manage yourself though? By focusing on yourself, by practicing self-discipline and by following a calculated yet flexible schedule. Effective self-management is all about knowing what you should be doing at any given moment, and doesn’t work without focus. Make sure that you keep your thoughts on whatever you are doing in the present. Learn to manage yourself, and enjoy a fuller, more productive life.
