Organizing Time
Listen to the Entire Lesson
Being able to manage your time efficiently can help
relieve some stress of trying to get things done and also help accomplish goals
in the proper time frame. We will take a look at a few different ways to
better/help manage your time wisely.
Organizing Time
Just as stated above, managing your time can be an important tool in performing
jobs in a time frame as well helping with some of the stress that comes with
getting things done. Here are a number of ways/tools to help manage your time
wisely. Using a daily calendar to mark down appointments, commitments, or
special events will help remind you of what needs to be done. A monthly
calendar can basically work the same way as a daily one but enable you to plan
ahead far in advance.
Here are some questions commonly used when organizing your time.
What
is the best tool to organize time/appointments?"
Should
I use monthly or a weekly planner?"
Should
I carry my planner with me?"
Daily Planner
A daily planner will help you schedule your time wisely when dealing with a
busy life full of events. Using a daily planner can help organize meetings,
lunch plans and other responsibilities throughout your day. Daily planners come
in all shapes and sizes. From writing things down to using an electronic
planner, lots of options are available.
Here are some questions commonly used when using a daily planner.
How
do I know what to use as a daily planner?"
If
I use an electronic planner should I set reminders?"
What
if I have more things to do than the time to do it?"
What
if I need to cancel something?"
What
if I need to make an appointment?"
If
I have someone at work who plans for me should I still keep a planner?"
Monthly Planner/Yearly Planner
A monthly or yearly planner is essentially the same as a daily planner except
the fact that they allow you to plan far in advance. Just as daily planners can
be as simple as writing things down on a calendar or using an electronic device
to keep track, the same methods can be applied on a monthly or yearly planner.
Managing your time, making and keeping appointments, and keeping notified of
special events are all functions of a planner. |
