THE POWER OF TIME
Harvey Mackay said that “Time is free, but it’s priceless. You can’t own it, but you can use it. You can’t keep it, but you can spend it. Once you’ve lost it you can never get it back.” Time is very important to us. With time, we can manage our life easily and we must appreciate every second that we used it. So, many benefits we get if we manage our time wisely.
Proper time management allows us to take some measure of control over our life. By planning our activities, we can help our days to become ordered. Things come up and we may be forced to change our plan at times, but for the most part, we need to achieve each day and having a plan to ensure that these things get done, will help us to control our destiny. We also can make time table to make our days easy and we must follow the time. If we not, we failed to manage our time. In Life’s Little Instruction Book, compiled by H. Jackson Brown, Jr, it’s said “Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresea, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.”
Furthermore, proper time management gives us confidence. This is partly because we have taken back control of our life. Checking things off our to-do-list will cause our confidence to soar as we realize that we can finish what we start. As our accomplishments grow, so will our confidence. It means that when we follow our time, automatic we feel confidence because we can do the job in the time. Confidence is important especially when interview because they will see our positive perspective.
Productivity . The time management can make a person become productive. When we don’t properly manage our time, we often have too many activities and not enough day. Time never wait us.When the time period is up for each activity, move on. Like Dale Carnegie said “Do the hard jobs first. The easy jobs will take care of themselves.” Doing this will mean that we at least get some things finished and have moved towards completing the other activities. Avoid to postpone the work or assignment that given to us because when we postpone, the work will become more and more and stress will come.
The other reason why time management is important is that we will get more done in less time. When we plan our time, we will see the amount of work that needs to be tackled. Inevitably, we will know not to waste our time away. “If you want to make good use of your time, you've got to know what's most important and then give it all you've got.” said Lee Iacocca. So, we can use the free time with other activities like rest or exercise outdoor. It will make our mind rest and relax.
Time management is a huge part of managing ourself. If we cannot manage time and won’t manage our limited resources, how do we plan to achieve our goals? We find that learning to manage time helps to discipline ourself. With the rules of time that we made from the time table, little bit make ourself to become discipline and good in do our work. “Once you have mastered time, you will understand how true it is that most people overestimate what they can accomplish in a year - and underestimate what they can achieve in a decade!.” The quote is by Anthony Robbins.
No principles of time management can be highly effective if we don't use it wisely.Time is needed to all person. So, use time perfectly and manage our time wisely .Be the best person.
Lastly, Benjamin Franklin once said that you may delay, but time will not.
