Getting Things Done
4.1 Time management
Time management is a combination of many things: getting things done and by a certain timeframe prioritising the most important thing to do swallowing toads (see Part 2: Chapter 4.3) Time in Motion
writing things down
the plan and goals
being habitual and organised planning ahead
just doing it.
If we’re not good at time management, we compromise other people’s time. We all know people who constantly compromise our time through lack of awareness of time management or saying they’re going to do something and then they don’t do it. Good time management prevents this. Some people will never be good at time management no matter how much training you put into them – it’s just the way their mind is and it frustrates the hell out of us who are good at it. I am sure you know someone like this: always creating chaos. One cause of that is the lack of prioritising and respecting the important things to do such as turning up at a meeting on time.
