TIME MANAGEMENT
Does everybody likes
  to manage time ?

       YES
Five years back
     Try and answer these question!
How old were you five years ago?
What did you look like at that time?
What did you do then?
What has changed ever since?
What have you achieved in this time?
                And…….
How quickly do you think has the
time passed?
Five years back
No hesitation in accepting that TIME has
passed very quickly!

 TIME is a mystery phenomenon

It passes very quickly and no one seems to
know how!!
                     &
 Nothing can be done about the past.
Five years ahead
How old will you be 5 years from now?
What do you think you will look like at that time?
What do you think you will be doing then?
What would have changed by then?
What do you wish to achieve in this time?
                    And…….
How quickly do you think would the time
pass now?

Would it be slower or faster than the last
5 years ???
NONE OF THESE
The time would neither be faster nor slower.
The clock would move at the same speed, one
second at a time.
This has never changed and will never change!
What matters is how well YOU keep pace
with this speed!

24 hours is what all have in common.
Yet some achieve SO MUCH in this
time and some achieve NOTHING.
Does everybody likes
  to manage time ?

       NO
Those who would like to

    Take Lead
from others, would use their
time efficiently

   others will give
    Excuses
Not having Enough
Time
Time Management - Common Issue
I am very busy. The second crisis comes in
before the first has finished

Unable to keep balance between office work
schedules, family responsibilities, and other
social engagements.

I wish I have more than 24 hours per day
so that I can get more things done

The system overloads me with work. There
is no time to breathe
Time Management - Common Issue
There does not seem to be enough time for
everything I want to do.

I don’t feel I have achieved anything this year

I don’t have control on my life. Things pile
one on top of the other

     Mostly people think that time
      Management as scheduling
 appointments and making things to-do
Time Management
Time management is actually self-
management. Its interesting that the skills we
need to manage others are the same skills we
need to manage ourselves, the ability to plan,
delegate, organize, direct and control.
The Clock is Always
        Ticking!!!!!!
The moment you
decided to improve
your personal time
management skills,
you have touched a
new dimension of
solutions to many of
your life's problems.
