Unless it's down time you've established, any activity that doesn't produce a tangible result or lead you to success is most likely a waste of time. This does not include meaningful time for reflection, which is key to getting your life back in order. Simply choose which things in your life are important to you and which are not. First, make a list of things that you normally do on a daily and/or weekly basis and write down how much time you spend on each activity. Then, take the items on that list and cross off the things that are useless in your life and you spend too much time on. Make a do and don't list. Look at the things you crossed off and what you still have on your other list. Does this seem reasonable? The main goal is to get you to stop spending so much time on useless things. Now that you know what to avoid doing, replace them with more productive activities. For example,  going to the movies or browsing on the computer half as often will give you more time. Or, if you watch TV for 5 hours a day, you're definitely wasting some time in your life. Some people are big on having as many windows open as possible when they are on the computer. They say it helps them to not forget important tasks and to stay on track. But if it sounds like you, you probably notice that the notification figures are constantly flashing, and before you know it, you're distracted by tweets directing you to another great article, photo updates about dinner selections, and an irresistible yet pointless online argument. Shut these social communities down and take control. Figure out times of the day to check back in. Take advantage of the useful time management tools out there to schedule updates for the day. You'll soon be so busy being productive that you won't notice that the social world you were so heavily immersed in has disappeared. Take advantage of the energy that comes with the rising sun. As many people are still not up and creating chaos in the world, it's a great time to be highly productive. Leave the social sites and personal emails for later. Begin with a short morning meditation that centers you and focuses you, and make a list of what you would like to accomplish. Then start right away on the work that will help you achieve your goals. Choose that this will be a good day.   Though you can also use part of this time for meditation or exercise. Meditation can help greatly to clear your mind and to help you feel refreshed and relaxed again. If you set 5:30 to 7:30 a.m. aside each morning, this will give you a solid two hours of concentrated work. It's incredible what you can achieve in this time. There are periods in life when it's nearly impossible to keep up. There are meetings, dinner dates, parties, conferences and all kinds of other situations that demand our presence. It's great to feel wanted but at what cost? Trying to go to every single thing will almost definitely have a negative effect on your productivity. Say no to things that aren't absolutely essential. By doing this, you will be opening the door so that more important opportunities can take priority. Ask yourself: How will saying yes help you to improve the most important areas in your life? If it doesn't, then say no.
قم بتقييم الطريقة التي تقضي بها وقتك. تجنب النشاطات التي لا داعي لها. قم بغلق مجالات التواصل الاجتماعي. استيقظ مبكرًا واستخدم تلك الفترة القيمة للتركيز. قل لا عندما لا ترغب في فعل شيء ما ولا تشعر بالذنب بشأن ذلك.
