Reap Lifestyle Rewards from Improved Time Management
Increase your motivation to improve your time management. Provide yourself with more time for family, fun and recreation. Transposing your success of managing your business activities over to your non-business life can reap surprising rewards.
Someone once said, “kindness will go a long way when it should stay at home.” The same can be said of time management methods.
Time with your family requires effective time management. When there are more than one loved one in your family circle, it’s more rewarding when you allocate more one-on-one times with each. Your spouse appreciates and values the private time you devote to his/her needs and concerns. Children, especially, cherish the moments which they do not have to share with siblings and others.
The more you value your time devoted to your business or professional activities, the more it is appreciated by your loved one. Quality time with your loved ones rewards you with a greater stature, a greater sense of well-being and extreme pride.
Adjust your time managing from time-with-the-family to time-with-a-family-member. You and each member will be glad you did.
Fun-loving people enjoy more success. People respect those who optimally manage their fun time. Since people like to have fun, they admire and follow those who are skillful at optimizing their time for fun. Include FUN in your time management improvement program. A fun-filled life is a healthy life.
Strive to make your fun time more efficient, rewarding and inspiring.
Recreation is different from just
having fun. While it’s obvious that recreation time is a time to recreate, we often neglect this objective when managing our recreation activities. Well-rounded individuals are admired for the balance they achieve in their mental, physical and spiritual development. Again, it’s obvious, such achievements take time to develop and time management to make them happen.
Apply your improved time managing techniques to true re-creating activities.
Manage to do the things that make you and others feel good.
Strong friendships develop over time. This can evolve through happenstance or it can be managed to fulfill your dreams and desires. Selecting, recruiting and nourishing a friendship needs orchestrated, caring and purposeful actions.
Manage your time for treating other people the way they like to be treated and they will become fast friends.
Self-actualization is at the pinnacle of Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs. He suggested that few people reach that peak. That form of serenity is not desired by everyone. Besides, a person usually strives to satisfy other needs such as food, shelter, security, love before aspiring to self-actualize.
Doesn’t such a quest benefit from the application of time management techniques to a more enhanced lifestyle?
