Time management is a common problem faced by most of us.
Oftentimes, when you are swarmed with multiple tasks at once, it becomes
extremely difficult to identify which ones you must complete first. Too often,
people eat up what is supposed to be their free time to be able to accomplish
all pending tasks in time.
It takes a considerate amount of skill in order to manage
your time properly. If you are one of these people, you are usually able to
control your time efficiently that you can even finish tasks ahead of time.
Let’s try to analyze the importance of Time management in
different fields.
Time Management in School
Due to more freedom merited to college students, it can
become quite challenging for new (freshman) students to cope with time
management. The liberty to choose your own schedule readily creates a false
notion that they can do whatever the want. On the other hand, it reflects one's
priorities and how you are able to properly appropriate them into your
schedule.
With lack of proper time management, a student will have
trouble coping up with deadlines set by professors. Most students would tend to
slack off during vacant hours that they end up accomplishing nothing.
If a student has prepared his or her own list of work for
the day, he or she will be able to properly allocate the time spent for extra
curricular activities and assignments.
Time Management at work
When it comes to your job, proper usage of your time is more
particular. This is because you are paid for the hours of service you render to
the firm. Hence, companies will try to ensure that each hour you spend at the
office is utilized effectively for work. Despite of this, employees still seek
out ways to have a break.
If time is not properly managed, employees could easily eat
up more time for their “breaks” than what is actually spend on actual work.
Hence, the company ends up requiring the employee to do overtime work just to
finish a project. If the overtime rendered is reflected on your paycheck, then
good for you. But if not, then you reap the unpleasant effects of poor time
management.
