If you want something to be done quickly, give it to a man who is too busy to do it. He will find time for it. – Anonymous

It is a known fact that the busier you are the more time you will have.

Oh! I was too busy. I couldn’t find time for it. I am so sorry, I could’t call you. Oh! I forgot about it, I was busy. Actually you will only find time for the things you give priority too. Everybody has got those 24 hours and you cannot complain that he or she has got more time than you. Then why is that someone has outdone it while you are still searching for ways to do it. It is because they were working while you were thinking how they were doing it. So value your time and start off early. Managing time well is the first step to success.

We will always have time enough, if we will but use it right – Goethe

The 11 Golden rules of success :

Following are the 11 golden rules of time management and how to organize yourself to attain great heights of success:

1. Set up your priorities:

You will find time for someone you give importance to. You will concentrate on something you give priority to. So before undertaking a task, set up your priorities and then start working on it. Do not waste your valuable time in doing something invaluable which is not going to yield you big results. Categorize stuff and and prioritize them.

2. Plan out your day, Start off early:

You will only be able to finish up early, if you have started off early. Best theme of the day would be to make your early morning fruitful. The better you plan your mornings the better would be your end of the day.

Better three hours too soon than a minute too late. – William Shakespeare

3. Do not cry over spilled beans:

You lose more time in crying over the wasted time and undesirable results. Rather concentrate on the upcoming tasks and learn from the previous outcomes.

4. Do not wait for deadlines:

If you are still waiting for the task to be done exactly on the day of deadline, then you are completely mistaken. Completing any task on the last date will result into confusion, frustration and you might lose the task as well. Telling you from my personal experience of filling out an exam form on the last date which resulted into busy server and hell lot of frustration.

5. Complaining won’t help:

it will waste more time in picking up holes and complaining about something or the other. Concentrate on your planning and forget abut what has gone wrong.

6. Do not overburden yourself with a lot of responsibilities:

Overburdening yourself with much more than you can actually finish within decided time limits will result into piling up of things. It will lead to adding one extra day to your calendar.

7. Indecisiveness:

Either do this or do that. Either choose this or choose that. The longer it takes for you to make decisions the closer you will get to failures. So making proper decisions at the right time will increase your chances of attaining success.

8. Give yourself a buffer always:

Before you start for your work, always have presumptions of getting stuck in traffic, or your train getting late or some of the other technical delays. Stop restricting yourself to time limits. The narrower your window period remains, the more chances of not been able to meet the desirable results.

9. Do not think too much about past mistakes:

Once you have made a decision, stick to it, accept the outcomes and then forget about the decision. Move on. Thinking and repenting will waste more time. Your yesterday will ruin your today and eat up your tomorrow.

10. Find time for recreation:

An active body and sound mind will help you in concentrating on your with a clear focus. So find time for some activity to remove dullness and instilling vigor.

11. Time is never right, Time is now:

Do not wait for the right time to come because gone time will never be back so make the best use of all the moments that you have got.

Time is free, but it’s priceless. You can’t own it, but you can use it. You can’t keep it, but you can spend it. Once you’ve lost it you can never get it back. – Harvey Mackay
