Exercising time management requires–you guessed it–time. It seems a bit of a paradox, doesn’t it? In order to develop effective time management skill, you must take more time out of your busy schedule that already contains more tasks than you have time to accomplish. But the investment of time used to schedule your time will create more time available to you in the long run.
So if you’re already overwhelmed by your to do list, and you find yourself making excuses not to do what you know must be done, then you need some motivation. You can find that motivation in the Big Benefit of Time Management.
And what might that big benefit of time management be, you ask?
Happiness!
Think about it for a moment. Why is it that when you can’t seem to drag yourself out of bed at 7:00 to get to work by 8:00, you will jump out of bed with great enthusiasm on a weekend at 5:00 to spend a day in your favorite hobby or pasttime? Because the leisure activity brings you joy. You are motivated to get out of bed because you know the day will bring you happiness, as opposed to the workday that brings misery.
So, in order motivate yourself to exercise effective time management, you must use the carrot of the Big Benefit of Time Management rather than the stick your boss likely uses–increased productivity. Remember, the more time you can free up, the more time you will have for your favorite activities.
