5 Simple, Yet Effective Time Management Tasks You Should Start Using Today
Are you trying to become an expert time manager? Have you noticed you
don’t spend your time well throughout the day? We could keep going with
these questions all day, but that would be a waste of time, right? We’re
going to jump into five simple, yet effective time management tasks you
should incorporate into your daily life.
1. Track your Time
If someone asked you how long you spend reading emails every day, what
would you say? What about your lunch break? Chances are, you don’t really
know how long you spend on certain time blocks of the day. Start tracking
your time and learn how to make changes so you can maximize it.
2. Set up Time Blocks
When you have a certain set of tasks to do every day, set up time blocks for
yourself. Give yourself 2 hours to do one thing and then 1 hour for another.
It becomes a competition against yourself because you’ll be rushing to beat
the clock, competing against yourself.
3. Plan it out
Morning person or a night owl, it doesn’t matter. Use the beginning and the
end of your day to make a plan and try your best to stick to it. Before you
leave work at night, write a list of important tasks to get done the next day.
In the morning, prioritize your list and review the items. Then, get to work!
4. Get it out of the Way
Eat that frog – Mark Twain said it himself. Pick the most important, and
most dreaded, tasks first, and knock them out first thing in the morning. It’s
such a relief once you finish them, and then the rest of your day is devoted
to tasks that you care more about and find more challenging.
5. Delegate When You Can
If you have a task on your plate that a subordinate could do (maybe even
better than you could), delegate it to them. Some people worry that this is
a bad work ethic, but it’s part of company culture. You’re all on the same
team, so it’s a matter of asking for help rather than being lazy. Understand
what your point of genius is and use your time for those important tasks
while handing off things that you aren’t great at or that are below your
paygrade.
We kept it simple with these tasks. Time management is an art worth
perfecting, and you’ll get there. Check-in with yourself (and the clock), and
make sure you’re really optimizing the hours you get in the day. And if you
don’t, fear not! There’s always tomorrow. It’s a constant work in progress,
so do your best, and the rest will fall in place.
