The 3 Mandatory Business Time Management Tips Written in Stone
[ad_1]
Finding advice and suggestions about business time management is not difficult to do. In our ever increasingly fast paced world, many solutions have been put forth on the proper use of time. Many of these solutions have value, however these 3 time management tips have been “written in stone”.
1) Manage Yourself First
Even the very best time management systems and strategies are useless unless the individual consciously applies them.
We must make a conscious effort to manage our behaviors and actions within time. To accomplish this, it is important to stay “present” in the moment.
By staying present and aware, we are better able to prepare for distractions, and avoid them if possible.
2) Identify Core Activities
The activities that contribute the most heavily toward the chief goals of a business are core activities.
It is important for the owner of a business to identify what the core activities are for their business, and make sure that sufficient time is spent on them.
When working on a task, it is important to be aware of how important it is relative to the key goals of the business.
Again, conscious awareness is the key. Always being asking yourself, “what am I doing right now, and why am I doing it”?
3) Complete One Task At A Time
It is a common practice in today’s busy workplace to attempt to perform multiple tasks simultaneously.
Or, equally common is to switch tasks before they are completed. These practices seem productive on the surface, however studies have shown that when 2 tasks are done at the same time, EACH task suffers.
In fact, the effectiveness of each task is reduced by 50%!
A tactic that will prevent multi-tasking, is to write down the RESULTS you expect from the completion of a single task. Writing down the anticipated results will motivate you to complete the task.
Hopefully, by applying these business time management tips, your productivity will soar!
