Overcoming the Two Biggest Time Management Traps
Effective time management is among the most pronounced cases of a knowing-doing gap. That is, most everyone has a pretty good idea what they should do-but most of us just can't muster the discipline to actually do it. Simply stated, the two biggest time management traps are (1) failure to prioritize-that is, research shows that we often procrastinate and put off working on our major priorities in favor of more easily accomplished chores with lower priorities; and (2) we do not devote our peak productivity times to our most important tasks (for example, responding to our e-mail first thing in the morning).
Given that you want to be an effective manager of your time, identify three proven strategies, feasible for you, that will help you avoid the two time management traps that haunt so many.
