How Would You Like to Live a Better Life?

Time management is basically about being focused. The Pareto Principle also known as the '80:20 Rule' states that 80% of efforts that are not time managed or not centered produces only 20% of the desired output. However, 80% of the desired output can be generated using only 20% of a well time managed effort. Although the ratio '80:20' is only arbitrary, it is used to put emphasis on how much is lost or how much benefit comes with time management.

Some people look at time management as a list of laws that involves scheduling of appointments, goal setting, scrupulous planning, creating things to do lists and prioritizing. These are the core basics of time management that should be comprehended in order to develop a proficient personal time management skill. These basic skills can be further adjusted to include the finer points of each skill that can give you that added reserve to achieve the outcome you desire.
