How do you manage your time?

POSTED BY Jennifer Gniadecki on Apr 24 under Blog Yumminess

From Franklin Covey to Google Calendar there are many ways to manage your time.

Do you prefer paper organizers or do you like to do everything online? That’s the first question to ask yourself. The second question is “Now that I know my preference, will I follow through if my organization system is the same as my preference?”

If you set up a whole system online but never use it, that isn’t going to help you and you’ll end up hooked on speed trying to get all your work done and end up at some addiction treatment place wondering how it got so bad.

So don’t do that, pick a system you’ll follow. Use baby steps. Don’t buy $400 worth of Franklin Covey products before you print out some sheets from the Internet to see if those will work first.  If you decide to use online time managment solutions, put in next week’s schedule and test it out…not your schedule for the rest of the year.

The right system + easing yourself into it will = great success!

    I think you also have to force yourself to do it for six weeks or so so that it becomes habit. Anytime I start something new, I add reminders for myself and bug myself to death so that I’m checking it before I’m… err… telling myself to ;)
