Home | Self Improvement | Time Management The whole point of improving your time management skills is simplification. A daily "to do" lists involves seven times more work than you need to do. It's easy to create a template for your to do list. Enter standing actions in your template. When enter projects list all the actions you need to do yet until the project is complete. Then once a week print your template and fill in the actions for the upcoming week. A "to do" list shouldn't just be a list of random and disorganized thoughts. You want your "to do" list to be a list of actions you need to take now and later. That way it serves as both a check sheet for marking off actions as they are complete, and a reminder for future actions so you won't forget them when the time comes. Make sure as you enter things on your "to do" list that you state them as actions. Using your time is about actions not ideas. Include a section for future ideas and plans you want to make, but in the actual "to do" section every entry must be made in terms of an action. You wouldn't write the word groceries by itself on your "to do" list. Instead groceries might be an item on your list with actions listed: make list on Thursday with items for Saturdays party, and go to store on Saturday. Your weekly "to do" list is also a great place to track your progress. On your template you may want to include a section for phone calls you need to make with the names and numbers of those to call. You absolutely want a results section where you track your weekly outcomes. You can have the outcomes from phone calls in one place so you know exactly how many appointments you made and/or the number of sales you made. You know immediately if you are on track or off track and what you need to do to get the results you want. This simple tool helps you to keep everything together in one place so you aren't wasting time trying hunting for information. Article Source: http://www.articlewheel.com
