iscover right now that there are only 3 possible keys to all time management.
It seems that when we try and organize time, we over-complicate things beyond usefulness.
Notable figures of history, philosophy, technology have shown that the best explanation is very often the simplest.
“Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler”. Albert Einstein
I am certainly one for intricate detail. However, the central guiding principles are almost always simple, short, and powerful when understood clearly.
Here in this article I present my 3 timeless keys to organize time.
And first I review 4 approaches to organize time that is taught out there in the big complicated world.
As I researched through many time management courses, home study courses, etc I noted 4 levels of how good they were.
Organize Time Level 1
The lowest level was where the program gave a very clear, vivid description and expansion of the problems and frustrations and all the many areas where loss of time, time wasting, or difficulties with time would come up. Then there would be some scattered tips and techniques at the end of each section on how to actually organize time.
Organize Time Level 2
The 2nd level are programs that explored the possible reasons behind difficulties with time, along with a ton of tips and techniques that would gain great results, provided they were applied, which would take discipline and effort to do for sure.
Organize Time Level 3
The 3rd level did that review of time difficulties, as well as the causes, but gave a streamlined approach to the steps to take for getting priorities controlled, and a selection of more efficient methods to organize time.
Organize Time Level 4
Now comes the 4th level of technology to organize time, which utilizes today's modern computer capabilities, along with eliminating all the dead old inferior and unintegrated techniques.
You can check out my own painstakingly developed groundbreaking Organize Yourself | Organize Everything Folderarchy Solution which in my research is the tightest, most efficient approach to organize time.
The 3 keys that I teach to organize time are Desire, Mindfulness, and Willingness. Remember and carry these concepts with you always.
- Desire - clearly identifying your intent for what you want. The easy bit right?
- Mindfulness - preparation and organization to set you up to achieve. A whole new level of insight.
- Willingness - actually doing the next steps of all your projects. Precise mechanism to control your actions.
By focusing on those 3 keys you can not only organize time, but you can dominate time.
Time is our most valuable commodity.
Everything is done inside of time.
If you lack control over time, if you can not properly organize time, then far less can be accomplished, contributed, created, or enjoyed.
But how is it actually done?
My 2006 groundbreaking Missing Principles Handbook will show you how. And for the time being (I must have lost my marbles) you are entitled to one copy without charge.
