WHERE DOES THE DAY GO?


Normally we all spend our day as
follows: 1) Sleeping :- 8 hrs.
2) School, college & coaching :8 hrs.
3) Eating :2 hrs.
4) Communication / traveling :2 hrs.
5) P.Hygine:- 1 hrs.
That leaves about 3hrs for other
things that make life worth living.

But, wait a minute


Lets extend this to a week, since we
dont go to work on Sundays and
other holidays, we have extra 20 hrs
+ the usual 3 hrs. to enrich our day.

Thats sound little better, doesnt it ?


These fig. also ignores illness, over our
lifetime. And, of course, there is time
spent watching TV, which is 14 to 26
hrs weekly.

WHAT CAN WE DO?

Recognize that obstacles exist


Identify them
Employ strategies to overcome

GETTING STARTED

Write down goals of your life Personal


and Social
Practice TO DO lists for at least 6 weeks
Then it becomes a habit
Dont give up
If you Fail to Plan you Plan to Fail

SETTING GOALS

SPECIFIC LONG-TERM.
MEDIUM-TERM.
SHORT-TERM GOALS

AND DIRECTING TIME & ENERGY


TOWARDS THE ATTAINMENT
OF THESE GOALS,
IN HARMONY WITH VALUES.

SETTING GOALS
TIME MANAGEMENT BEGINS AND IMPROVES
WITH GOAL-SETTING.
THE FIRST STEP
DETERMINE YOUR GOALS ~
BE CLEAR, DETAILED AND SPECIFIC ABOUT YOUR FUTURE PLANS
AND WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TODAY, TO ACCOMPLISH THOSE GOALS.
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER WAY, TO CONCRETISE YOUR GOALS.
BE WILLING TO DO
AT LEAST SOMETHING, EVERY DAY,
IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS.

SOME IMPORTANT QUESTIONS:


1. HAVE YOU SET YOUR GOALS ?
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO IN LIFE ?
TO BECOME WHAT YOU WANT TO
BECOME,WHAT DO YOU WANT TO LEARN ?

SOME IMPORTANT QUESTIONS:


2. WHAT IS YOUR TIME PERSPECTIVE ?
DO YOU COMPLETE THE PLANNED TASK EACH DAY OR HAVE
TENDENCY TO PROCRASTINATE. IF SO WHY?
HAVE YOU PREPARED TIME LOGS AND THUS HAVE CLEAR IDEA
OF TIME.

ARE YOU REALLY UTILISING TIME EFFECTIVELY TO ACHIEVE


YOUR GOALS.

ARE YOU SPENDING MORE TIME THAN REQUIRED FOR


ROUTINE ACTIVITIES.

DO YOU COMPLETE THINGS IN TIME? OR ARE RUSHED, PUSHED


AND THUS STRESSED.

WORKING WITH TO DO LISTS

Create your list before you start the day


15 minutes of investment will help you everyday
End of day: Review status
Status C- Completed, T-Transferred, AAbandoned, I In progress
At the end of day you will get a feeling of
accomplishment
TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR LIFE, YOU CAN DO WITH
IT WHAT YOU WISH Plato

NO EXCUSES

Do it Now
Prioritize
Understand how much time it takes to do a task
Not all tasks take time
Understand what and why of your procrastination tendency
Do not be a last minute decision taker
Gather information of a task in advance
If we wait for the moment when everything and absolutely everything is ready,
we shall never begin
Be proactive and not reactive
- Being proactive is highly motivating

Being rich is having money;

Being wealthy is having time.

The best time to plant a seed and grow a tree was


20 years ago; the second best time is now.

"We spend our entire life wondering why we didn't do


this and didn't do that, YOU ARE NOT DEAD! Maybe
we did not accomplish something in the past
but who says you can't do it now?
