You Can’t “Save” Time
-
You can only reallocate your time usage from areas of low value to areas of high value. Herein lies the key to success, and the requirement for self-discipline.
-
You require tremendous self-discipline to overcome the procrastination and delay that holds most people back from great success.

Practice Single-Handling
Once you have begun work on your most important task, you must discipline yourself to concentrate single-mindedly, with 100 percent of your time and attention, until that task is complete.
It takes tremendous self-discipline to select your most important task and then to start on that task rather than doing anything else.
You will feel more positive and confident. You will feel happier and more determined. The very act of starting on an important task raises your self-esteem and motivates you to continue.
You automatically trigger these feelings of self-confidence and self-esteem when you discipline yourself to start work on the task that is most important to you at the moment.
Keep Yourself Focused
-
What are my key result areas? Of all the things I do, what are the most important results that I am expected to achieve in my position?
There are seldom more than five to seven key result areas in any job. It is essential that you identify yours and then work in those areas all day long.
-
There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important things.

Managing Your Time
There is a simple time management system that you can use to overcome procrastination. It requires self-discipline, willpower, and personal organization, but the payoff is huge.
The best time to make this list is the evening before, at the end of the workday, so that your subconscious mind can work on your list of activities while you sleep.

Think Before You Act
Lack of self-discipline in time management leads people to procrastinate their top tasks continually, causing them to spend more and more time on tasks of low or no value.
Many people have developed the habit of procrastination, of putting off their major tasks and instead of spending most of their time on activities that make very little difference in the long run.
