Time Management: Time Specificities

Time is a special resource because it takes time to accomplish anything.

The way you manage time, like the way you manage your money, energy, and other resources, plays a large part in determining the goals you can accomplish, and the satisfaction you receive from everything you do.

You really manage yourself with regard to time. There are many ways to make the most of your time.

Time is:

Measured: by clock or calendar, by season, by life stages.
Limited: we all have 24 hours.
Unique: we really manage ourselves in relation to time.
Perishable: we cannot save it for future use.
Money: it has a dollar value.
The key: to finding satisfaction and enjoying life.

Time is a special resource for anyone trying to meet family, work, community, and personal needs. Some say time is the most valuable of all resources because it is limited. Others think time is endless...thinking they can always do their tasks at another time. Most busy people have to plan carefully in order to meet all their time demands.

Jobs, schools, and other events require you to be on time, even though you would prefer a more relaxed schedule.

Time itself is not the real problem: The key is how you use your time.
Time cannot really be managed; you manage yourself in terms of time use.
