Time Management: Working Smarter Handout Activity 2

Reward Yourself

Celebrate when a major task is completed or a major challenge is met. One of the problems with a hectic life is that you can be so busy that you fail to notice the completion of a major piece of work.

You just move on to the next job without celebrating your previous success. This failure leads to focusing on what is still left undone instead of enjoying what has already been accomplished.

Set up a reward system for yourself that serves as both a motivator to get certain difficult tasks done and an acknowledgment that you are making effective use of your time; be it a bubble bath, two chapters in your new book, or a phone call to a friend. Acknowledge your accomplishments by rewarding yourself.
