B . Time Management Time is limited and irreversible. Time is measured in years, months, days, hours, minutes and seconds. We are provided with hours of time each day to use it as we like.
The key is how we use that time. If not managed properly, time keeps slipping away inspite of our effort to control it. No matter how important and valuable an individual may be, one cannot stop time, nor slow it down, or speed it up. Once passed, time can never be regained.
In today’s fast changing lifestyle, our demands and responsibilities at home, at school and at work have increased. This has made the need for managing time very important. To be successful it is essential to develop time management skills. People who use these techniques become high achievers in all walks of life, from agriculture to business to sports to public service in all other professions and personal life.
Time management allows one to have adequate rest and recreation along with work. The principle of time management is to concentrate on results, not on being busy . People often spend their days getting anxious about the unfinished task, but achieve very little, as they do not concentrate on what matters the most– time . For example, some students may spend their time worrying about examinations rather than actually studying for them.
All time management begins with planning. A time plan is necessary. A time plan can be defined as an advance schedule of activities to be performed in a given time period.
