Time Management : Tips to Reduce Stress and Improve Productivity

1. Plan each day

Planning your day can help you accomplish more and feel more in control of your life. Write a to-do list, putting the most important tasks at the top. Keep a schedule of your daily activities to minimize conflicts and last-minute rushes.

2. Prioritize your tasks

Time-consuming but relatively unimportant tasks can consume a lot of your day. Prioritizing tasks will ensure that you spend your time and energy on those that are truly important to you.

3. Say no to nonessential tasks

Consider your goals and schedule before agreeing to take on additional work.

4. Delegate

Take a look at your to-do list and consider what you can pass on to someone else.

5. Take the time you need to do a quality job

Doing work right the first time may take more time upfront, but errors usually result in time spent making corrections, which takes more time overall.

6. Break large, time-consuming tasks into smaller tasks

Work on them a few minutes at a time until you get them all done.

7. Evaluate how you're spending your time

Keep a diary of everything you do for three days to determine how you're spending your time. Look for time that can be used more wisely.
