Time Management - Do It The Right Way

Getting up early in the morning, grabbing a cup of coffee from the nearest coffee shop

, maybe a bagel also, hurrying to the office (dropping kids off to school, if that is the case!), rushing from meeting to meeting, coming back home all exhausted and ready to hit the bed - Oh My God! The day starts all over again tomorrow! In such a situation, where is the time for yourself? Where is the time to spend with friends and family, take your kids to soccer match or a dance recital etc.? Well, we might have the latest time saving gadgets and technological advancements, but somehow, we are getting busier by the day and clearly 24 hours doe snot seem to be long enough!

Is it because you are genuinely getting busier or is it because, well, just maybe, you cannot manage your time and yourselves properly?

First and foremost, make yourself some tea/coffee and sit down with pen and paper! Jot down how you spend your day, make a list of all the activities and note down the time spend doing all of them. This is a real time audit that you need to do in order to be realistic, prioritize and maybe cut down on a few things! Do you spend too much time messaging on the phone? Or browse the internet?

Go through this list. You will realize you do not need to do half the things you do every single! If you are very busy, why buy groceries everyday? You can do it over the weekend and store it in the fridge. In fact, many of us spend hours deciding what to cook today! How about deciding it over the weekend and making a schedule of all the meals so that groceries can also be sorted on time!

Slow down - delegate and share duties. You do not need to run the dog every single day. Your partner can do it a few days and you can do it a few days. So is the case with many other things - homework of your kids, laundry etc. Division of labor is a great idea and will help you breathe!

Most of us think we are great multi taskers at work but when it comes to household things, we flip out! How about cooking and taking care of the homework of your child at the same time? This helps in saving a lot of time which is crucial on week days!

Everyone needs some "me" time. Make sure in your scheme of things, you dedicate at least 30 minutes to something you truly love - gardening, gym, dancing, listening to music, soaking in a hot tub, reading a book etc. This will give your mind some rest and release "happy" hormones
