I consider this technique to be the most useful, because it meets the needs of today's world, in which everything changes quickly and unpredictably.

1.The first rule: Priorities by Purposes.

For me, it's simple - according to the dictionary.

Priority means the first.

What do you do first thing in the morning: get dressed or take a shower?

Of course, the shower will be first.

But if you're a researcher of waterproof overalls, what about it?

Therefore, the priority in actions depends on the purpose of these actions.

2. Planning: To-do List and Calendar.

Without planning, there is no time management. But you can't plan for just one day, it will lead you into a trap.

You need to plan for several weeks, at least 6 weeks in advance.

And put in the calendar what you want to do.

If you don't have an exact answer about the timing, decide how you want - and put it on the desired date.

3. Self-organization: Routines and Rituals.

Although many people have a negative attitude towards the concept of routine, I want to convince you that routine is your foundation for productivity. Because routine is your own patterns of action, something that is repeated and provides you with survival and confidence.

Routine includes daily tasks that you do not think about, but do automatically and this is worth considering.

As for rituals, these are your own rules and standards. They bring order and footholds, and add uniqueness to your life. For example, if you have a family ritual of visiting interesting places every Saturday or having a weekly romantic dinner, then you will always enjoy spending time together. And you will never hear the words "you only care about work...ยป

4. The main tool: Time calculation will help you get everything done on time.

But it is impossible to do everything in time. That's why I pay attention to how long different tasks take.

I have several types of time calculation:

If you calculate the time for each task, as well as the total time for all tasks, you will very quickly find more time, or you will find that you have too much time and there is simply nowhere to put it.

5. Routes: Schedules for the Day, Week, Month and Year.

Schedules are ways to achieve goals. You don't create schedules to limit yourself, but to move toward your goals.

Schedules can change, just like any route. You just look for the best route.

But in your schedule, I advise you to have time for everything that is important to you: work, rest, body care, communication with important and close people, study, social affairs, etc.

Of course, what I have just shared with you is only a small part of this mystery called time management. But this is just the beginning of our communication.

I plan to regularly reveal the secrets of Goals Management Technology on this blog. So I am waiting for your questions and needs.
