Improving Time Management Skills


12 years ago 0 11226 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0


In the past week, we’ve been talking about stress management. Stress maangement skills are important as stress can trigger a relapse if not on guard. A great preventative strategy for stress is to buff up on your time management skills. Here are a few tips:

-    Stop procrastinating: If it takes a certain mood to be productive, help yourself get into it. Turn on your Mp3 player, take a walk before you sit down to put your nose to the grindstone. Whatever it takes to get the project done now.
-    Plan ahead: Having a clearly written plan of attack for a project can be helpful and help you stay productive. It can also give you clear direction as to what step in the project to tackle next. Also don’t forget to allocate 1-3 hours extra of time just in case the project takes longer than expected. This will help you avoid turning it in late.
-    Keep a time log. This can be an eye opening tool! It allows you to see where you are spending your time, who interrupts you, etc…

How have you been managing your time during your quit?
