Time Management Simulation Games

Creating good time management habits at the office can be a tough, especially when you must work around other people's projects and meeting plans. But just because somebody wants to schedule a face-to-face meeting doesn't mean that the meeting must be held. Once you talk with that person on the phone, you may discover that you can gather all of the necessary information without ever having to take time from your day for a meeting with him.

Another example of unnecessary time-wasting at the office is attending meetings where it wasn't necessary for you to be there. You would be surprised as to how many meetings are held with people who did not need to be there. How much time is wasted for those people? How much of their time management planning goes down the drain due to these meetings?

But how do you communicate your desire to bypass a meeting or to have a meeting canceled altogether, without offending the person who is trying to schedule it? Simply try to ask the person on the phone questions about as much information that the meeting is to be about. Then politely say “Well it looks like I have everything that I need, how about I get to work on this project right away and we can meet about the results tomorrow"? However you approach the situation, be conscious of who you are dealing with and what position at the office they hold.

Did you know that the average person wastes up to 70% of their free time by watching television? Are you one of those people? Chances are that if your goal is to make better use of your time for more important items in your life, then you may need to kick the television habit to the curb!

Below are 6 ways in which you can make better time management by controlling your TV habits:

1. Ignore the TV and choose to work on hobbies such as gardening, puzzles, reading, stamp collecting, etc.

2. Only permit yourself to watch two hours of programming on Saturday and Sunday for an entire month. You will be amazed at how much more focused you will be.

3. Instead of watching sports games on TV, why not attend them instead? Not only does this get you away from the television but it also can create more quality time between you and your friends and family.

4. Understand that you do not need to watch TV for your news and information. You have been programmed to do so since birth and with today's online news reports you do not need to get drawn back into watching television just to see what is happening out there.

5. Make it a point to go an entire week at a time without ever turning on your television. So this at least once per month, or more if possible. http://www.eselfhypnosis.com

Then you should be working on getting control of you, getting control of how you manage you.

What is getting in your way, getting between you and those things you intended to do?

Is it easier to do things that are easier or more fun first?

You look up at the clock and it is break time, so you go take a break, grumbling that you didn't get to the things you really needed to do. After returning to work, of course there are a couple of those fun, easy things that you can do before you start on the tough stuff.

Doing the easy things first is poor time management. It's a habit, but habits can be changed.

Do you have a priority list but things lower in priority get done first because of excuses like these:

?This one is easy, I'll do it first to get it out of the way.

?The whole list of things that won't take as long can be done fast, so I'll start there.

?This one is not as difficult?..

You get the idea. Things that you'd rather be doing, things that aren't as difficult or challenging you'd rather do first.

I believe it was Brian Tracy that said, ?Eat the frog first? Swallow the things you don't like to get them out of the way.

The idea is to do the hard stuff, and more important stuff first. Get them out of the way. When doing the easy and fun stuff first you never get to the stuff you should be doing.

Keeping a time log of what you are currently doing will help you find where your time is going. Make sure to write everything down.

Many times I am totally amazed seeing people coming back from doing their time log for just a week. 80-90% of their time went to the low priority stuff, not the things they should be doing, not the things that are important.

I assume that:

?Over 95% of everything most people do, even people who seem to have it together, is wasted time.? Just think about that! If 95% is waste, then what would happen if you put ALL of your time, or ALL of your employees? time into the 5% where you should be spending your time. Doesn't that say that you SHOULD be able to do 20 times as much as you currently are?

Sounds rather far out doesn't it? Well it's not too far out. If we assume that 20 times is the ideal, just how hard do you think it would be to increase your results by 50-200% when 20 times is a potential?

Pretty easy really. So, start off by tracking where you are spending your time now, looking for the right things to be doing, and where time is wasted.
