 | Stacks of paper, unopened emails, deadlines that crowd ... Concepts such as time management can be entangled and intimidating for some of us.
And then comes the need to establish and follow a plan for efficient use of time. An important thing on the agenda is setting up priorities. Although it seems simple, make problems to those that can not effectively hierarchy different activities depending on the value they attach to.
First, be objective and determined as precisely the things that bring you the greatest satisfaction. How can you do that? Only you know how much a certain activity matter for you, especially the promising results if we achieve it, but also by mere satisfaction of doing it.
Not every thing that gives you joy is a priority, so sometimes is good to see what things are the most important to do. Experts recommend three strategies for prioritization.
The first thing is to determine the most important projects and time needed to solve them? This first operation is called a generic estimate. Let assumed from the start that you will endeavor to make an accurate estimate regarding time to solve it, without delays or hiding behind the bush. Do you have something to do and you take responsibility for it.
Then you should learn to operate with concepts R, R, P (ie, requirements, rewards and profit) to be reviewed. Translate each factor with a specific question, like: what to do? how much I invest in this? What I won? And that means that you have used an evaluation strategy. When there is a reasonable proportion between job requirements, efforts to meet them and job satisfaction, means that you are on the track. Using a technique of writing, whether on paper or computer, helps you see in black and white, what to do to earn what you want.
A final step, elimination strategy is to reduce the number of tasks by delegating them to someone else. You just can not do everything. Start with a question of common sense as well: "What of what I do can be done by someone else?".
Don 't worry if your plan do not work from the start, any field, it takes a little practice and perseverance. In addition, priorities are not rigid in nature, sometimes it is advisable to adapt to various changes in your schedule, if is needed. So be as flexible and consider to pay them some attention.
