Guidance: how can we steadily follow the changes of society and how can we retain the time of flight. As the saying goes: "an inch of time, an inch of money, it is difficult to buy an inch of time ." Cherish the present time. In the future, we will not feel remorse for the time spent in youth. Three authorsJoe Mathews, Don debolt, DebJointly created a work environment for Time ManagementArticle《10 time-management tips that work.The general business process is composed of three aspects: ideas, exchanges, and actions. In daily work, you must make plans in advance to ensure smooth work and become the manager of your own time.

The following is an article summary:

At a certain stage of your life, if you have attended a training course on "Time Management", read books on time management, and try to plan every day of your life on electronic devices or paper, arrangement. That's good. You may ask, "why do I still feel that I have not finished what I need to do with these knowledge and skills ?"

The answer is simple. The knowledge you have learned about time management is a waste of time, because they do not play any role at all.

Before you start to manage the time, you must understand what is "time ". In the dictionary, time is defined as the time or time period when a thing occurs. Simply put, time is the time when something happens.

There are two types of time: clock time and real-time. The clock time follows the natural law of time. As we all know, a minute has 60 seconds, an hour has 60 minutes, a day has 24 hours, and a year has 365 days. All time will follow this law and will not change because of anything. For example, if a person lives to be 50 years old, the time he has experienced is 50 x days, and there will be no more than one minute or less than one second.

Real-time is relative. The speed and slowness of time are determined by your own feelings. The following is an example. For example, if a person has been working for two hours, but he feels that he has been working for more than two hours. On the contrary, when someone is playing a game, they will feel time flies. This is what real-time means.

What time should we use to describe the world we live in, clock time? Real-time?

The reason why the time management system method does not work is that these methods are used to manage the clock time. However, the clock time is irrelevant. You should not live in the clock time, but in the real-time-in this world, when you do what you are interested in, you will feel that time is too fast; when you do something boring, you will feel that time passes slowly.

The good news is that real-time is spiritual. It exists between your ears and you create it. You can manage everything you create. It's time to drop self-slander and self-restriction that means "I don't have enough time" or "today is not the right time to start a business or manage the current business.

Time is generally spent on three things: Thinking, communication, and action. No matter what type of industry you are engaged in, all your work is composed of these three items.

As an entrepreneur, your time may be interrupted frequently, but you can handle other things. When you cannot avoid interruption, you should arrange the time you will spend on these other things, and the time you spend on guiding your successful thinking, communication, and actions.

Practice the following methods and techniques to become the controller of your own time:

1. Plan and record all activities or social activities in a week. It helps to clearly understand what needs to be done and where to go during this period of time. In the end, we need to know the actual time spent on these things and the time wasted in idle ideas, conversations, and activities.

2. The most important thing is to arrange activities and social activities at the most reasonable time. Remove the items in the to-do list to the standard start time and end time respectively, and arrange the activity time according to the priority.

3. Use more time to make detailed plans.

4. In case of emergency, the original plan should be interrupted.

5. The first job every day is to plan the work of the day. Do not start your work blindly. The effect is far from the first plan. The most important thing in a day is to plan the day.

6. design the entire process and expected results five minutes before starting each project, clarify the ideas, and then start. After the completion, compare it with the previously conceived results to see what is lacking or excellent and lay the foundation for future work.

7. When you are at work, please stick the "Do Not Disturb" sign and concentrate on it without disturbing external things.

8. If you do not have any important business customers or other meetings, please reduce external interference. Do not affect your attention because of others at work. For leaders, a limited time can be set to give back emails and calls.

9. Control yourself to exclude other distractions, such as Facebook and other types of social media, unless you need to work.

10. Keep in mind that it is unlikely to cover all aspects. At the same time, remember that 20% of thinking, communication, and action can determine 80% of your success or failure. (Zhang Qi/compilation)
