Have you ever realized that you did not have time to do everything you wanted? This is probably due to following certain patterns or negative behaviors that we may have acquired, and we have to try to leave behind.
Before going on to see these 10 actions that make us waste time I invite you to watch a short video about this "wasting time."
Artistic video that beautifully but crudely shows what procrastination is:
I'm going to show you 10 actions that make us waste time:
1. Not getting up early
An adult person has to sleep between 6-8 hours. If we sleep more than that time, we will not only feel worse, but we will have less time to do everything we think about. Learn to get up early and when others start to get up, you will have finished your work.
2. Beware of multi-tasking
We think that we are capable of doing many things at the same time, but everyone has a limit. It's worth concentrating on finishing a task, and once it's done, then we move on to the next one. In this way everything will be well done and we will not be overwhelmed.
3. Not measuring the time available
It is important to calculate exactly how long it will take you to do a task. In this way we can offer our clients better times and organize a work task to optimize our time.
4. Not being organized
Getting organized is the key to being able to perform at your best. This way you will be able to know where exactly you have the tools you will need and not waste time while looking for them. Learn to organize your space and I assure you that you will save a lot of time.
5. Not learning to prioritize
Imagine that you have a client who does not mind waiting a bit and one who wants things for now. It is important to know how to handle these time slots, both in your work and personal life. There are some tasks more important than others and you must learn to prioritize them.
6. Distract yourself easily
One of the best tips I can give you is that, the moment you start doing your homework, you free yourself from any type of interference that could distract you. Turn off mobile phones, forget about the outside and only focus on what you have in front of you.
7. Follow a daily routine
Be part of the organization. Set fixed hours where you go to work and try, always as much as possible, to be able to conform to them. This way you will get your mind used to concentrating on a routine that will be very helpful to carry out any project.
8. Wanting to advance very fast
All things in this life have an associated time; if we try to go faster, the results may not be as expected.
9. Not checking your schedule normally
Reviewing your schedule or your agenda is key to knowing what you have to do today. If you do it in advance, you can prepare against any unforeseen event that you have not contemplated.
10. Have bad attitudes
Bad behaviors or bad attitudes (both with you and with your classmates) are only going to make the whole group waste much more time.
The one I have to apply the most is "learning to get up early" to make the most of the morning. I know that my main problem today is that I go to bed LATE, mainly to take advantage of time with my wife after work. A hug, Pablo
I comply with the 10 actions.
HOW IT HAS TO BE 🙂
