Making Your Time Count!

Time Waster # 4 - Wasting Your Resources

Are you always planning activities that clash with other people’s schedules? Do you find the time you allotted to make calls (such as lunch time) means you are not able to get a hold of anyone? Do you ask for help when everyone else is too busy?

Rearranging your schedule to make the most of your time will prevent you from 'getting in your own way'. Find the most opportune times for tasks and your day will be much more productive.



To avoid wasting time with bad scheduling try the following:

  1. Do you find more people available to talk later in the day? Make all your return calls then.
  2. Do you often need to ask for assistance with big projects? Plan ahead so that your project does not conflict with other people’s schedules.
  3. Give yourself extra lead time. Things don’t always work out like you plan, give yourself some extra time so you can make your deadlines even if you have setbacks. Check up on delegated tasks to make sure they’re on schedule and give them early deadlines as well.
