Most precious thing in our life is TIME. As it is never going to come back. So its very important to know how to make best use of it.

 

We all have only 24 hours to spend doesn't matter if somebody is a successful businessman or a student. Both of them have only 24 hours in a daye. If we know how to manage our time properly we can make good use of time elswhere will land up wasting a lot of time.  So there is always a strategy how to start your day and utilising it in best possible way. 

 

Step 1: Make a To Do List where in all the activities are listed which you want to do in that particular day.

 

Step 2: Prioritize the list as most important, important and not so important tasks.

 

Step 3:  Always do the most important and the big task at first and then small tasks. 

 

Psychology says when you complete your big task or most important task first then a signal goes to your brain saying task accomplished and it releases happy hormones because its a sense of achievement. You will feel more motivated to complete other tasks asap.

 

On the other hand if we start doing small tasks first then it consumes your time and we do not get that feeling of great achievement also.

 

Mayo jar activity in time management also suggest the same. Putting rocks first into the jar means doing your major tasks first, then put pebbles which fills the space between the rocks. Pebbles represents the not so important tasks and commitments.

Lastly put the sand into the jar. It fills the jar to the brim. It fills all the space left between rocks and pebbles. Sand mainly represents the unproductive tasks or distractions which consumes our time but we do not count them in tasks. Like social media surfing etc

 

Other Tips :

1.     Always try to do a particular task at the same time daily so that your mind is programmed for it. When your mind is programmed that way it will definitely find ways to take out time for that particular task.

2.     Always try to schedule a time for your top priority tasks.

3.     Try to make your To Do List before you go to sleep . Visualise it properly how will you perform all tasks next day and then go to sleep. Your subconscious mind is not sleeping during night so with this visualization you have given work to your subconscious mind to put things effectively and make your day productive .
