Atricle Dump - Plan Your Time - Manage Your Time, Invest Your Time
During my 25 years as an advertising consultant, I had many husband and wife business teams as clients. In my mind, it was the good, the bad, and the ugly. I wasn’t necessarily referring to their physical attributes. But it usually did not lead to a positive outcome. Not that all of these type of partnerships are doomed, but the majority were less than successful. The reasons are varied and easy to enumerate here: You have a vested interest in the spouse, first, before work. It’s hard to separate business and leisure. How can you tell your spouse they made a bad business decision? If you have an argument at work, do you bring it home? You have no chance to escape talking about the job or company. Even if you say it’s work-related, it’s always personal. If you divorce, how do you divide the company? Can you fire your spouse if they are bad for business? What if one ends up doing all the work? Your personal issues, like adultery,
3) They don’t gossip.
4) They don’t blame TIME for their failures and frustrations.
5) They don’t mix their work with family. They don’t carry their work to home and don’t bring their family emotions and fights to workplace.
6) They don’t blame others.
Conclusion
Number of hours in a day will not change. There will only be 86,400 seconds in a day. It is up to you, how you manage and use each of those seconds. One needs to invest each second. As, it has been rightly said, time once passed will never come again. Busy people are very satisfied, happy and do everything that they want to do in their life. Those, who show that they are busy, end up with frustration, burn-outs, stress and most of the time failure in life and profession.
Before I sign-out, I like to share few examples to let you know the value of Time, I studied these examples when I was in school,
To realize the value of one year; ask a student who has failed a final exam.
To realize the value of one month; ask a mother who has given birth to a premature baby.
To realize the value of one week; ask an editor of a weekly newspaper or magazine
To realize the value of one hour; ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of one minute; ask the person who has missed the train, bus or plane.
To realize the value of one second; ask a person who has survived an accident.
To realize the value of one millisecond; ask the person who has won a silver medal in the Olympics.
Time waits for no one. Treasure every moment you have. You will treasure it even more when you share it with someone special.
Individuals not within their target career field may feel insecure, doubtful, or maybe even ashamed of their current job title. Career changers make up a large portion of the job-searching population. Although people (in general) are “creatures of habit,” they thrive for change – especially when unhappy in their current position or industry. Continuing with educational goals or transferring to another industry can alleviate these feelings, yet shouldn’t be the only remedy administered.This list of questions will allow you to soul search, discovering what your ultimate career goal is, and what to do once you identify it. Ask yourself the following questions:1. What do I like to do, or what am I good at? Write this title or job description prominently at the top of a blank piece of paper – preferably within a notebook or binder that will eventually transform into a journal.2. Do I possess skills relevant to this position? If yes, what are they? Place your answer under the title or job description, from question 1.3. If no
At one stage or another we all have heard or read all or any of the below mentioned, Time Related Phrases:
1) Time is money. Time is wealth.
2) Time is a river. Time is wind.
3) Respect your time.
4) Doesn’t matter what you do…time will just pass away.
5) You never know, when your time will change. (Samey bada balvaan hota hai)
6) Each year, each day, each moment is unique in its own way. Once it passes, it will never come again.
7) Respect my time and I will respect yours.
8) With time, all wounds will heal.
9) If I had more hours
10) I don’t have time
There are many more.
But, like money or wealth or your assets can you save your time for difficult days? No, you cannot. Your time is now, invest it or waste it.
We are living in an era where researchers, philosophers and historians are talking, discussing and debating about “Life Management”…”Plan your life”. Every individual should know what he want in his life? Where he see himself after 5 or 10 years? One should know what he or she is expecting in his or her life. Hence, Time Management is an important aspect of our life.
How busy are you? - Your daily Routine
Let’s see, what we (Most of us) do in our daily life. How we are managing our day? As an example, I will take my daily schedule and I am sure that yours too will be closer to that. We spend time in following activities:
1) Rest / Sleep – 8 hours
2) Health: Yoga, Exercise – 1 hour
3) Prayers – 1 Hour
4) Food (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner & Snacks) – 2 hours
5) Entertainment – 2 hours
6) Knowledge / Learning / News – 1 hour
7) Socializing – 1 Hour
8) Work/Profession/Career – 10 hours
9) Traveling – 3hours
10) Time for Family – 3 hours
One should do all these activities to have a successful, purposeful, stress free and happy life. If I calculate above mentioned time, it comes out to be 32 hours, whereas there are only 24 hours in a day. So, how to manage? I don’t want to cut any of the activity.
Manage your Time
One can manage his time by using following skills and tools

2) Once you come back from your walk, at the time of your morning tea or milk, you can scan through Newspaper or News Channels to keep you updated with the latest events and news. Can you?
3) While having your breakfast, you can also spend that time with your kids and family or listen to songs of your choice.
4) While driving or traveling to your office you can either listen to songs or use your mobile – phone to stay in touch with your friends and relatives through messages and calls. If you are at a senior level and really busy and your office is quite far away…you can also have one meeting in your car.

If you can solve a problem through a simple message on mobile phone or a simple e-mail; you don’ have to call for a meeting. So, use your mobile phone and internet to help you in managing your time.

Bookkeeping is a name given to the task that is undertaken to maintain records of the transactions that are done on a daily basis. Any type of business, whether it is large scale, medium scale or small scale, will not be successful if small things like bookkeeping records are not maintained properly. All these may appear to be small and trivial to some people, but business owners know that this is an important aspect of their business and must be handled carefully by experts. Bookkeeping services provided by several firms can help business to run smoothly by taking care of all their bookkeeping works.Bookkeeping is one aspect of the business that is really time consuming and difficult to handle.

If you don’t like the typical workplace, why not make a dramatic career change to a dream job that does not involve corporate life? This is even more important if you also hate your job.Fact is, you can be free of the 9 to 5 rat race if this is what you really want. Imagine, having work that you truly enjoy and not having to work for a nasty boss! Just as important, you can have your personal freedom.Clearly, you can’t be genuinely prosperous unless you have true freedom. You will have attained true freedom in this world when you can get up in the morning when you want to get up; go to sleep when you want to go to sleep; and in the interval, work and play at the things you want to work and play at — all at your own pace.The great news is that not having a real job — and creating your own dream job instead — allows you the opportunity to attain this high degree of freedom. The freedom that millions of individuals — including me — have attained by not having a real job offers a myriad of benefits, including a relatively stress-free li
