TIPS ON HOW TO MANAGE TIME BETTER

Have you ever wondered how to manage 

your time better? it would be really nice to 

have time for everything you've planned, 

right?

Fortunately, there are many things you can 

do to change your lifestyle once and for all 

in ways that will help you become more 

organized and to complete your daily tasks 

with ease.

WHY DO YOU FAIL AT TIME MANAGEMENT?

Do you often find yourself where you just 

feel like 24 hours is just not enough for you? 

You've planned so many things to do, but 

somehow at the end of the day, there are 

always some tasks that remain incomplete. 

don't worry many people including me, find 

it difficult to follow a certain schedule. This 

Is because we tend to get distracted very 

easily. You grab your phone to see that new 

message and end up scrolling through social 

media for hours (i know we are all guilty of 

that).

Panic is another common that leads to not 

competing for for for your to-do list. if you 

start to think of how many things you need 

to do before a certain period of time, you 

are doomed to fall into distress. You will 

likely end up being in a state where all you 

do is panic and complain that you don't 

have enough time.

Not planning your time is another regular 

mistake. Many people think they will cope 

with completing all their tasks and don't 

find it necessary to plan their day. They will, 

in all probability, end up not completing at 

least two of their daily tasks.

HOW TO MANAGE YOUR TIME BETTER

Wake-up early

this is probably the most common advice 

when it comes to better time management. 

Waking up early is a valid method that 

works like a charm. If you wake up at 5 am, 

you will have so many hours to complete all 

your work (if you're a Muslim, you're used 

to waking up for fajr early morning so it's 

not that hard of a task, I hope).

even though it is very hard in the beginning, 

once you get used to it, you will love it. in 

the first two days, you will turn off your 

alarm and will go back to sleep. but that's 

okay. in the next few days, you will 

somehow get out of bed, being irritable for 

the next two hours. That is okay too.

However, when you survive the first week, 

it will get easier with each day that passes. 

in the end, you will grow so accustomed to 

this routine that some days you won't even 

need an alarm.

Write down your tasks and set time for each task

As I mentioned above, many people fail at 

time management because they don't find it 

necessary to write down their tasks. 

however, it is much easier to have a 

the notebook where you make your to-do 

list.

Having a journal can be simple, or a  bit 

time-consuming depending on how you 

do it, if you buy a notebook and just write 

down your tasks, you will spend no more 

then 30 minutes a day working on it.

but if you want it to be organized may be a 

week goal or so, it is actually time-

consuming.

Spare 10 minutes every night to write a 

loose agenda on what you are going to do 

the next day, it may not be perfect but it will 

keep you on the task.  You can use journals 

to write everything including shopping lists 

and places, you want to go for the day or 

even a week, it all depends on how you 

want it, but the main point is, to have your 

task jotted down somewhere.

Setting a timer for each task gives you a 

sense of urgency, forcing you to work a little 

faster, It helps you keep track of time, and it 

rewards you with The promise of mental 

break When the time's up.

PUT your phone away

phones can be your best friend or your 

worst enemy. When you are doing a job, 

consider it the second option.

I'm just going to check my phone for a 

minute pretty often ends up in you spending 

hours of scrolling through social media with 

no purpose.

In order to avoid this, it's better to leave 

your phone in the other room when 

working. This way, you won't be tempted to 

reach out for it every five 5 minutes. it's 

much more effective to work for 2 hours 

and then take a 15 minutes break.

Take a Break

A common mistake many people do is they 

work until exhaustion without taking a 

single break. This is extremely wrong, not 

taking a break often results in doing less 

work in more time. Instead of being 

productive, you will be tired, not focused, 

and short-tempered.

It is much better to take short breaks, every 

two or three hours. Snack on something, or 

just walk around for a while. your brain 

needs some time off. after you get back to 

doing your job, you will feel much more 

energized and productive.

Prioritize Your Tasks

Another important thing you need to do if 

you want to succeed in time management is 

to prioritize your task.

The first step is to think of all the things you 

must do. Then, make a list of all your tasks 

putting the challenging and most important 

ones first, followed by those that are simple 

and less time-consuming.

This way you will be able to complete the 

major ones on time and will have enough 

time to cope with the rest of your duties. 

You won't have to worry about incomplete 

important tasks while doing minor ones 

because you will have already fulfilled them.

Stop Thinking And Start Doing

You know what I mean right? You just sit 

there thinking of all the things that need to 

be done for the day. The clock is ticking, 

your headache is getting worse, and that 

time just keeps passing. You decide to leave 

these tasks until the next day.

Big mistake, if you leave today's work for 

tomorrow, you will end up having to 

complete a whole lot of tasks the next day, 

and the day after. You don't have to rush, so 

instead of panicking and complaining, just 

calm down, focus, and do the job step by 

step. you will fulfill it effortlessly in no time.

If you have come to the end of this guide on how to manage time better, you should be ready to get things done the following day.

The most important thing to remember is, don't be hard on yourself and be consistent.
