Why You Need To Stop Killing Time
Organizational skills and time management are
essential to your success.
Time management is a choice, how you decide
to spend your time is very much up to your own
discretion.
We kill time by procrastinating and doing
unproductive activities to ignore what is really at
hand
killing time may work for a few minutes, but it
adds up when things need to get done.
You can increase your productivity and move
closer toward your goals just by managing what
you are doing and when you are doing it.
The very act of taking a moment to think about
your time before you spend it will begin to
improve your personal time management and
increase productivity immediately.
Why Do We KILL Time?
Why,then, do people choose to kill time?This is
quite literally letting time pass you by, instead of
taking advantage of it
killing time is a vicious cycle What starts as a
short break browsing online, can turn into hours
wasted.
It feeds your lack of action and interrupts your
workflow.
When you find yourself in one of these situations,
scrolling the internet aimlessly, stop for a second
and think about what you aren't accomplishing
The more you procrastinate, the longer it will take
for your task to get done.
You come up with random things to do, wasting
your time, instead of knocking this one task out
I've been there too.
Sometimes a task seems so daunting you don't
want to get started.
You come up with random things to do, wasting
your time, instead of knocking this one task out
I've been there too.
Want To Stop Killing Time?
The more productive you are, the more motivated
you will be to get things done and you will
manage your time better.
However, don't confuse being productive with
being busy.
Here are 3 helpful tips to stop wasting time and
get your tasks accomplished effectively.
1 Get The Hard Stuff Done First
Tackle the hardest thing on your to-do-list, or the
thing that is hanging over your head, and get it
done
It takes discipline to accomplish the
hardest task first, but it is a habit that will increase your levels
of performance and productivity.
Sometimes you have to ignore how you feel, and just get
started.
Nobody wants to start a difficult task, but successful people
put their heads down and do it.
2 Make A To-Do List
It is also helpful to get your hardest ''to-do'' out of the way first
thing in the morning because this is often when you are most
alert.
After lunch, midday, you'll be less motivated to get started on
a tough project.
Once that's checked off the list, make a plan for the rest of
your day.
I recommend listing items in order of urgency or importance.
Making a to-do list is an effective way to put your organizational skills to work and
prioritize tasks to save time.
What should you complete today?
What things can you pot off until later?
Even more specifically, what needs to be done before a certain time today?
Startwith that item first and move down the list until you reach the non-urgent list
items.
Now that you've gotten the ugliest frog out of the way, your list does not seem as
difficult to complete.
3 Take Short Breaks
Make sure to set aside time for short mental breaks. I'm talking 10 to 15-minute
time blocks.
Scheduling a block of time to relax for a moment is not the same as aimlessly
scrolling the Internet when you could be getting something done.
Mental breaks are valuable and actually jump start your productivity.
Choose something that shifts your mind away from what you are working on for a
brief moment
I usually do this by stepping away from whatever I'm doing.
Close your eyes and be still for a moment
If that's not your style, recharge by being social for a couple
minutes. Talk to your co-workers about something non-work
related.
Just make sure not to interrupt their workflow.
Stop Killing Time!
When you kill time,you are killing your opportunities to do more and be more
Successful people make the most of each hour of everyday, using every moment
to their advantage.
Learn to get a handle on what is distracting you from accomplishing your tasks
each day.
Remember this:
Effective time management is a habit that can be learned.
It starts with your decision to invest your time into what is
important
