| What is Time Management? |
"Time = Life, Therefore, waste your time and waste your life, or master your time and master your life."
Alan Lakein
The first question to ask is "What is Time?"
Time is our most valuable resource. It is unique and totally non-renewable. Everyone has the same amount of time: 24 hours a day; 168 hours a week; 8736 hours a year. So how does one person accomplish more than another in the same period of time? Time gets spent, and a lot of people have a problem identifying how they spent it - "It just seems to go". The person that accomplishes more has strategies and goals. They know where and how they are going to achieve what they want to achieve.
This leads us to the question "What is Time Management?"
It is the management of time; how a person plans and spends their time. Having effective strategies in place will help a person manage their time effectively, and as a result they will have control over what they do in the time they have available. It really is about managing ourselves, not time.
