Time Management Programme
November 11, 2003
I think the single biggest problem facing me (and all new business owners) is that there is simply not enough time in the day to do everything.
Or rather, because I am doing everything, I find that I'm working increasingly long hours just to deliver to my clients and get things done.
That is why I'm following a time management system starting this week. I've got a sheet that's broken into 15 minute slots and I have to allocate a letter to each slot according to what I did with it. So C is for work done on behalf of a client. M is marketing...D is distraction, A is admin. Now I've added a few of my own, E for eating, and B for blogging. But even after using this system for 1 day, it's made me incredibly aware of how effectively I spend my time. Or not.
If you would like a copy of this time management sheet, I'd be happy to provide!
