Time Management, Time Allocation & Time Discipline

Description

Time management is the act or process of planning and exercising conscious control over the amount of time spent on specific activities, so as to increase effectiveness, efficiency and productivity. Time management may be aided by a range of skills, tools, and techniques used to manage time when accomplishing specific tasks, projects and goals complying with a due date. A time management system is a designed combination of processes, tools, techniques, and methods. Time management is usually crucial in any project development as it determines the project completion time and scope.

Time management techniques typically involve setting goals, establishing priorities, budgeting the amount of time allotted to a given activity, and planning and scheduling the steps needed to achieve objectives. The theory is that once we master the time management skills, we’ll be more organised, efficient, and overall, happier. Personal time management skills include goal setting planning, prioritising, decision-making, delegating, and scheduling. Time is indispensable, intangible, irreplaceable, irretrievable and therefore extremely invaluable. It is the same for everybody. Time is money and also can be seen as a measure of effort.
