I want to manage my time better and make use of a day as much as possible. Are there any books you know that talk about good time management?

Your time management skill is one of the very greatest skills of your life, besides walking and talking. Time Management Skills are not so difficult to do, but they are terribly difficult to get. Not because they’re difficult to learn, but because they’re difficult to find.

This is a very helpful post, lots of food for thought. As a visual learner, I really appreciate the effort you put into the illustrations. Thank you

If you’d like a tool for managing your time and projects, you can use this application inspired by David Allen’s GTD:

You can use it to manage and prioritize your goals, projects and tasks, set next actions and contexts, use checklists, schedules and a calendar.

Evelyn, regarding the quote of “do the right thing”, I remember the metaphor that Stephen Covey used about “climbing the ladder that is leaning against the wrong wall”. I think that’s what it is: leaning the ladder against the right wall = doing the right thing (right). :)

Also, the difference between leadership and management is for me: leadership is all about doing the right thing, management is doing things right. We need both.

Another great post!

Main idea is to keep the end in mind. If you can narrow down your long-term goal to ONE thing, just ONE thing, and make sure you do something to get closer to that goal on a daily basis, the rest will fall into place.

I don’t think I’m very good at time management myself. I tend to be overbooked in my schedule. I sure like what you said about “I do the right thing and then I do it right”. I’m going to really sit down and think through how I’m allocating my time!
