How You Prioritize Time Management over Life Management?

 Prioritize Your Time Management


Srishti has been trying to incorporate yoga and meditation in her daily routine due to some health issues but she ended up in the insurmountable conundrum everybody is facing today- How to spare time with home and office responsibility? “I just wish if only I could have some free time”. And I am sure you also have the same question. But do you really think that ‘free time’ kind of thing ever exists or would exist in near future. Nay, certainly never; so today at Eduemeralds we will talk about this imaginary yet pervasive roadblock in our life.


Srishti is not alone who’s struggling to take out just 45 minutes of her day to take care of her well being, there is a large number of newbies and aspirants who battle the same and in the quest 'free time' their passions and dreams never materialize and turn into reality. And the factors responsible are- this humongous monster ‘free time’ and their disavowal of the biggest hindrance in their life. Eventually, they end up as intellectual pygmies and can’t achieve anything momentous to be worthy of their Life.


Prioritize Your Time Management


What is Time Management?

We often misconstrue time management with a strict routine, a voluminous to-do list and whole day tightly scheduled as a series of events and tasks. But trust me, Time Management and Free Time are synonyms; if you don’t have free time, that means you don’t have time management if you practice time management you enjoy free time and if you wish to spend good free time on yourself you must spend time in learning the skill of time management in your life. Time management is one of those essential life skills that can transform your Life entirely by increasing your productivity in whatever you do, managing your stress level and by developing a perfect balance between your personal and professional Pursuits and your work and family life.


Time management is bigger than life management as it helps and empowers us lead our life the way we want to; it teaches us to spare time that we can spend on whatever enriches and enthralls us thus leading to a stress free and fulfilled life. So, your life largely depends on how you prioritize Time Management over Life Management.

How to Start Time Management

Needless to say that, “Time and tide waits for none”, yet we keep boggling at the idea of developing this skill. In fact we respond very reluctantly to countenance the practice of time management. When Eduemeralds talks about how to start learning and practicing time management, the first step would be to use a pen and paper to write your daily routine. It will give you a clear idea of how you spend your day and a ratio between the amount of time spent constructively and the amount of time wasted in frivolities. Now prioritize the Important and lesser important tasks for the day and start allocating the right time to the right activity. Effective time management will allow you to finish the planned activity in the stipulated time and you will be free to relax and reinvigorate yourself for the upcoming ones. Setting deadlines for the strenuous and demanding tasks will help you keep anxiety and stress at bay because you have already planned how and when you are about to finish that work.


Being organized at work and home saves most of your crucial time and helps you stay focused. Learn to avoid keeping stacks of files and papers at your workstation and useless, extra stuff in your wardrobes and kitchen as they annoy you when you are looking for something really important. 

  

Inculcate a habit of using planners, organizers, soft boards, and writing notes on important tasks for effective time management.

Time Management over Life Management


 Benefits of Time Management

Effective time management makes you punctual and disciplined; you stay happy and confident because you have divided your workload smartly and made the judicious use of your time. It makes you more productive and mentally stable as you know how your day starts and how it will end. It is observed that people become more organized and learn to manage things more effectively when they practice the skill of time management on daily basis.


It boosts your morale and makes you stand apart from the crowd. Once you start practicing time management, you can accomplish tasks within the time frame and that gifts you a sense of pride in your skills, thus you become more confident and succeed in your life. It helps you avoid indulging in irrelevant activities and teaches you Learn to Say NO because you are not ready to compromise with your time. When we are able to ward off the temptations and overindulgence such as Social Media, gossiping or binge-watching that uselessly demand our precious time, we can gain more expertise in our time management and learn to prioritize time management over life management.


           Time Management is one of those skills which are difficult to imbibe but extremely effortless to flow and flourish with. In other words, it might be difficult to sow the seed of Time Management but very easy to see it growing and enjoy the sweetness of its fruits. The possible reason could be because you Resist Making Changes in the comfortable cocoon of your life. Every time, you introduce a change, your mind produces a plethora of excuses and a barrage of obstructions as- why to do, when to do, how to do and the list is infinite. The only understanding required, is the need to bring a positive change in our thought process and cultivating the Grit and Determination to make it happen at any cost.  


In today’s fast paced era, nobody is immune to stress and anxiety, some get bogged down by the enormity of pressure while others grapple with their inner demons to get a hold on their emotions but the people who know how to manage their life and turn their difficult times into rewarding ones and emerge as winners are the ones who have mastered the skill of Time Management.
