Look Before You Leap

A sensible swimmer always assesses the water before diving in. An astute time manager first pauses and looks at the sea of options before plunging into chaos.

Here then is an important time management technique. Before plunging, pause momentarily and ask the instant time management question. It is, “What is the best use of my time right now?” Decide what it is, then do that thing first. You can use this question many times during the day to keep from drowning in a sea of irrelevancy. Try, it you’ll like it.
