#timemanagement #decisionmaking
When I signed up for a part time contract with a client, I thought I had lots of time to continue blogging daily. What I had not counted on was that this would take up 4-5 times as many hours as agreed in the beginning. At the same time we were urgently trying to finalize an Executive Training Program with experiential learning and had to finalize my company set-up.
I found myself too mentally exhausted to blog for several weeks in a row. At first it stressed me out, but then I quickly realized, I need to relax. I will blog again, I was on top of my monthly goal of writing 1 article a month on projectmanagement.com and had even written an additional article on projectcubicle.com I was actually ahead of the game!
Let’s look at a few tips how we can make the most of our time and remain calm, while getting all important things done:
My tips:
-
- Relax, you will manage!
- Make a list
- Prioritize – this includes blocking time for private things that are important to you and time for yourself
- Put thing that are not urgent on the back burner for a bit
- Start working on your assignments one-by-one
Getting all worked up, or even worse feeling like a looser, is not going to help anything. You will only get stressed out. Just clear your head and start prioritizing and planning. Also keep assessing regularly if you have taken on too many responsibilities.
And if you continue to struggle with time management, then get some professional help.
