There is only one key to
success in life, that is to take control of life, and in order to become a
successful person you should take control of time. Prosperous person makes best
use of time and he has all the time in the world to perform while abortive man
has always excuses of time shortage. There is no shortage of time for anyone. In
fact we have to search for time and time does not wait for you. Triumpher has 24
hours so an unsuccessful person has also the same time but it depends on the
person how he materializes these 24 hours. A happy person puts effort only on
momentous tasks and gets best results while the unhappy has reasons of failure.
Time is such an invaluable that who manages the time becomes prosperous. Time is
estimable than money, the most expensive jewel of the world. Time is like an ice
which is thawing all the time. If you cannot make proper use of time it will be
over for you.
The importance of time is estimated by the sayings of our Holy Prophet (PBUH).
“Even on the arrival of judgment day, don’t waste your time and plant an
offset”.
We can use time for success. Time is a wealth, and uses it like a wealth.
Following points should be considered seriously in order to get success.
Important tasks:
Use your invaluable time for the most important jobs. Set your priorities, the
most important task needs your attention first. So when you start a new task,
always raise a question whether it is towards your goal or not. Also raise
another query that if this job is the most important or top prior job is waiting
in queue.
PLANNING:
In order to use best of time, you should always plan before starting a new job.
Make upfront planning. The key to success based on how much you are focused on
planning. Research shows that 1 minute planning saves 10 minutes practical work.
Planning helps you to think and understand the things better. Plan in writing
form is a better option. Always start a new day with a plan in your mind. So as
plan entire week before to start a new week. Some experts say that weekly
planning is better than day to day planning. Planning covers the routine jobs as
well two or three important tasks which will guide you through to the
destination.
One Task at a Time:
People try to perform multiple tasks at a time, as a result they fail to
complete neither of them and finished the job despairingly. Basic principle of
time management is to do one work at a time, especially most important job needs
full attention.
Set Dead Line:
Another important rule of time management is to set dead line for each task.
According to a research, time is being adjusted according to time, for example
if you set 10 days timeframe for a job it will be completed in 10 days. Allocate
proper time for every task and then follow the procedure strictly.
Use time waiting in a Positive Way:
Time wastage is a common practice In our society. Especially in marriage
functions which always start ignoring the importance of time. Salesman waits for
a long time to meet boss. You will be on time but have to wait for other person.
Sometimes you are standing in a long queue and so much time wastes. This time
can be saved. You should read book, prepare notes or plan your future. One of my
cousin , is an officer walks to the office instead of using car. During his walk
he always plans the entire day’s working.
