Working to a time frame improves my ability to focus. And with increased focus comes enhanced efficiency, because I don’t lose momentum. When I feel pressed for time and have to make a decision, I’m more likely to jump to conclusions without fully considering every option. This leads to poor decision making. Through effective time management, I can eliminate the pressure that comes from feeling like I don’t have enough time. I start to feel more calm and in control. When the time comes to examine options and make a decisions, instead of rushing through the process I can take time to carefully consider each option. And when I’m able to do that, I diminish my chances of making bad decisions.
I feel time management is the key to success, It allows me to take control rather than following the flow of others. As I accomplish more each day, make more decisions, and feel more in control, people notice. Managers will come to me when they need to get things done and that increased exposure helps put me in line for advancement opportunities.
