| Every now and then there are moments when we require more than 24 hours to carry out all our tasks to do. In most cases we find time to fulfil only urgent tasks, and everyday we hear a number of complaints that there is no time to meet close friends, or to visit the family, or even to allot a couple of hours to ourselves.Is that familiar to you? Conceive that you can slow down the time. It is possible if you follow 3 not complicated suggestions listed below. 1. Do not put off your tasks.Procrastination isn't only postponing all the tasks, sometimes it's just failure to prioritize when people persuade themselves that the small things they do are of great importance, but putt off those duties that are really need to be done. It occurs if these duties are not very pleasant, or in case a person doesn't know what to begin with.Take into account that procrastination doesn't solve your problems, it may only make them worse. In such a way it is logical to make a schedule of your urgent tasks in order of decreasing importance, and start with the most essential tasks. Do not postpone essential tasks till late evening, it is just a psychological trick. 2. Complicated duties are to be accomplished first.If you have several things to do with similar priority, start with the most complicated thing. It is human nature to postpone the tasks that seem complicated or not pleasant. It is not reasonable both because you waste your time and because the longer you wait the more unrealizable the duty would seem. That is why try to be honest to yourself, and begin with complicated duties. 3. If it is possible multitask.Pay attention to the words: if it's possible. For example, the situation on the road needs your concentration, so do not try to solve your business problems on the telephone while driving. It is a good idea to combine mental tasks with mechanical ones. If you need to water the flowers or to do the dishes, you may begin with these duties whilst talking on the phone. But be sure that your efforts to multitask don't slow down your activity.Try these suggestions on practice, and you'll save lots of time. But nevertheless, remember that no strategy will work if you waste time on nonproductive activity. Every now and then we tell ourselves that we'll take some rest just for a minute but then we find it even more complicated to concentrate on our obligations. Remember a famous proverb: business before pleasure. |
