<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
1 - Think Happily</h3>
<br />
Remembering good times will reduce stress and increase your pain threshold. Positive visual images stimulate the brain.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
2 - Believe In Yourself</h3>
Look back over all your past successes especially times when you have faced and overcome similar obstacles to the ones you face now.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
3 - Make Time For You</h3>
<br />
Set aside 15 to 20 minutes every day to either meditate or simply relax. It is a vital communication towards the brain that you are in control.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
4 - Plan Always</h3>
<br />
Stresses come from within, not from the outside world. Work out what is stressing you, write it down, prioritize and come up with an action plan.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
5 - Repeat Words</h3>
<br />
Repeat simple and easy to remember sentences in your thoughts when going to bed. This slows down the brain keeping your attention off from any anxiety and setting forth for sleep.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
6 - Meditate Quickly</h3>
<br />
Concentrate on one object for five minutes. You can do this quick and will decrease stress both in the short and long term.</div>

Particularly, the tips in this presentation would be useful for students. As we know, students have lots of work to do, and without proper management of time on a daily basis, productivity could plummet.

<b> <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/biovictor/improving-the-time-management-skills" target="_blank" title="Improving the Time Management Skills">Improving the Time Management Skills</a> </b> from Dr.Victor</b> </div>
</center>
<br />
What presented by Dr. Victor here are clear tips and formula for managing one's time. Proper time management equates to more productivity, while poor time management equates to stress.
<br />
<br />
Let us face it. Many people are accustomed to last minute chores. Students do their assignment just before the period of that subject. Or, the most common one is, paying bills on the day it is due.
<br />
<br />
These are just among the characteristics of a or poor time management. When one forgets the last minute chore, stress and eventually lots of issues will come up. Then, one realized she/he was not doing it right. However, the next time, he/she does the same thing.
<br />
<br />
It is essential to note that, managing time is a part of a daily lifestyle. Wherever we are, time is with us. We cannot control it, but we can manage to do things in order, avoiding stress and troubles that will result of lack of time management.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
Recently, I stumbled upon this book summary called "<a href="http://www.ebscohost.com/uploads/corpLearn/pdf/Obstacles_Welcome.pdf" target="_blank">Obstacles Welcome</a>". I haven't read the whole book yet, as I don't have a copy of it. But, reading through the summary it's really interesting.<br />
<br />
Below are a few of the excerpts which caught my interest and I'm planning of having the book to read it in full. It's a story about Ralph De La Vega, the CEO of AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets.<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Confronting Obstacles and Recognizing Opportunities</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.rebootpartners.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Obstacles.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Welcome Obstacles By Ralph De La Vega" border="0" height="200" src="http://www.rebootpartners.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Obstacles.jpg" title="Welcome Obstacles" width="133" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span id="goog_457377706"></span><span id="goog_457377707"></span>Obstacles presented themselves at every turn, whether it was the disappointment of being away from the family or inability to understand a language, etc. Nevertheless, these situations forced us to look for opportunities to adapt his circumstances to something positive. We have to learn the importance of making sacrifices in the present in order to plan for a better future. It does not help to simply sit back and hope or wish for something better to come around; instead, it is essential to plan and to take risks to maximize opportunity.<br /><br />In business and in life, obstacles should be embraced, because any given challenge is an opportunity for growth. It is essential that we learn how to recognize pivotal points in life, those places where major challenges to our personal lives or our corporations change the directions our lives or careers take.</div>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
Pivotal Lessons To Recognize Opportunities</h4>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>Hope is not a substitute for planning.</li>
<li>It is necessary to take calculated risks, rather than simply going with the flow.</li>
<li>Our greatest successes in life come only when we recognize opportunities.</li>
<li>Obstacles make us stronger, wiser, and more capable.</li>
</ol>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Obstacles take many forms, and include things like large-scale change, general discouragement, a pervading sense of fear, and general adversity. Sometimes it is necessary to “unlearn and relearn.” As people, as employees, as managers and leaders, we have a tendency to get stuck into certain routines that have proven to be successful.</div>
<h4 style="text-align: left;">
How Adversity and Obstacles Present Opportunities</h4>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li>Hope is not a strategy. It is necessary to plan for success.</li>
<li>To achieve big goals and dreams, it is necessary to take calculated risks.</li>
<li>Big wins in life come from an ability to recognize opportunities. The most significant and important opportunities lie in problems that are waiting to be solved.</li>
<li>Embrace and overcome obstacles. Obstacles and adversity make stronger, wiser, and more capable leaders.</li>
<li>Be willing to unlearn old habits and relearn old lessons from life experiences.</li>
<li>Building winning teams involves effective, honest, and open communication.</li>
<li>The greatest successes always involve willingness to make sacrifices.</li>
<li>Leadership is not something inborn, but learned and practiced.</li>

Whenever we have complete control of our own lives, then we've got the capability to deal with whatever comes along our way. No person can deal with every factor of life, yet we could sustain certain control over what goes on to us. <br />
<br />
It is essential to remember that everything in life have an impact on us in some way, so when we're learning time management, we have to think about that. The whole process of time management is actually complex, yet once perfected, can make life easier. To be able to create a highly effective time management strategy, you have to think about every area in your life and examine exactly where your time and effort is actually spent.<br />
<br />
</div><a name='more'></a><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">In considering ways to improved control your time, you have to think about almost all aspects: time with family, close friends, career, yourself, and so forth.

</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">One spot where it is possible to focus on determining your time is at work.

Taking charge of your time will help you to undertake much more important tasks and become much more appreciated being an employee.

One particular preference just for accomplishing this will be to always keep a log or perhaps notepad along with you through the day, in the time span throughout which you will likely be executing the listing.<br />
<br />
Utilizing both the back and front of a plain notepad within your log, draw twelve rectangles, several inches wide. Every rectangle could stand for 1-hour of your time, in a standard twelve-hour day. Tag every rectangle with per hour batches, for instance 7:00AM to 8:00AM for your initial, 9:00AM to 10:00AM for the next, and so forth. You'll repeat this daily for 1 week.<br />
<br />
Every block is actually reserved for you to list the routines which you complete in that particular period of time. <i>For instance;</i><br />
<br />
<u><b>Monday - Friday @ 7:00AM to 8:00AM</b></u><br />
> Take The Shower</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">> Make and Eat Breakfast<br />
> Brushing Hair<br />
> Brushing Teeth<br />
> Dress For Work<br />
> Apply Make-Up <i style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">(For Women)</i><br />
> Drive To The Office<br />
<br />
Create records as frequently as possible and be particular on the information which you log.<br />
<br />
By the end of the week, start looking back using your log making list associated with a blocks of time you could make a lot better utilization. Quite a few amount of enjoyment as well as spare time is essential for your overall wellness as well as well-being, however, if you observe there are constant blocks of time which are not indeed being handled prudently, this is an excellent starting point to create a few modifications in your everyday time management routines. </div>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863940040099105824.post-61108292056907585162011-02-08T00:13:00.000-08:002011-02-08T00:13:00.490-08:00Simple Steps To Master Time Management<div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Time management is among the least learned and most wanted skills within a busy modern society. It is truly important to getting productive, accomplishing all you desire to and having ultimate success.<br />
<br />
Here are 3 simple things you can get started to master time management;<br />
</div><ol style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;"><li><b>Get rid of time wasters</b>. Time wasters are usually stuffs that disrupt you as well as you devote more time to engaging in, and you would not have preferred to accomplish all of them given the option. Getting rid of these kinds of time wasters is crucial when it comes to time management:<br />
<br />
<ul><li><i><b>E-mail</b></i><br />
If you're investing a lot more than half an hour daily on e-mail you're spending far too much!<br />
<br />
</li>
<li><i><b>Telephone</b></i><br />
Should you answer the telephone in excess of five times each day during your productive time you're compromising time management as well as productivity. Whenever you answer the telephone, you disrupt your existing productive stream which destroys your efficiency.<br />
<br />

<li><i><b>Television</b></i><br />

</ul><br />
</li>
<li><b>Create a list regarding what's really important in your life and simply begin doing those things in your list.</b> One of several secrets of time management is prioritization, you must learn what you need to achieve then go get it done. Modern day society offers a lot of interruptions so when you permit those interruptions in becoming top priority, you compromise time management. Here are a few suggested actions to follow along with;<br />
<br />
<ul><li>Make of list of what you need to complete</li>
<li>Established deadlines for completing every item</li>
<li>Arrange the items in order of significance</li>
<li>Develop a strategy with respect to accomplishing each of your goals in its individual deadline</li>
</ul><br />
</li>
<li><b>Start focusing on time management all through the span of your day.</b> Your constant concentration should be upon dealing with your time. Once you've established your goals as well as your priorities, begin concentrating on basically having those things accomplished. In the event that something is not in your goals list due to this week, do not do it right up until all of your goals are finished. Whenever you put in priority every disruption occurring and set your goals go on, you won't achieve your goals. Rather, you'll be a servant to disruptions and in all likelihood feel as if you won't ever accomplish good enough. </li>

Each bit of the task need to be carried out by means of a exact deadline. In time boxing, work deadlines are not flexible but everything else within the project is flexible.<br />
<br />
In time boxing, an extensive process is split up into various parts. Each individual section has detailed directions for their achievement.

One example in this variety of time management technique to a script for a movie. Usually the scenes are actually arranged in boxes with 5 or 6 scenes to be performed at each final target time. Once the deadline gets near one of scenes could be dropped, so as to complete that section of the project on-time.<br />
<br />
Time boxing doesn't work in every single instance. The key component for this strategy of time management is the due dates or deadlines. In some cases whenever the due date is not attained, the actual whole task is scrapped accordingly.<br />
<br />
The system is most effective when a strict budget must be followed, thus preventing the extending of deadlines, in order to finish the job.</div><div style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; text-align: justify;"><br />
