Finding Time Where There Seems To Be None
While thinking of ways to increase my chances of learning and becoming successful. I realized that I would need to invest as much time as possible with my online endeavors. Now of course the same would hold true for any offline training or business. Trying to accomplish something new can take both time and effort. But what if you're all for the effort part, but there seems to be no time.
What I did was change my schedule in such as way as to make more time. For starters I changed my sleeping times. And have now arranged it so that I go to bed 1/2 hour later than before. And wake up 1/2 hour earlier. This works surprising well allowing me an extra hour without being tired upon awakening.
I have also made several other little changes. Every evening before retiring I write out a list of things that should be accomplished the following day. And I make this in the order I wish to do them. This is similar to how a secretary would make a daily schedule for his or her boss. At 8am do this, at 9am do that and so on.
This works whether one has a job or stays at home. Making a schedule and prioritizing will show you exactly where your time is going. And how much of your time is going to what task. Before long it will become apparent where extra time can be found. Such as watching too much television. Becoming unfocused while on the internet. Or allowing unnecessary distractions to divert you, while you're studying or working on your business. If you want time it can be found you just need to find it.

Glad this is working so well for you! I too have trouble finding mode time.mi can't cut out any more sleep and I am thinking I need to be more efficient with my time : )
I completely understand about not being able to cut out any more sleep. If you write out in a journal or just a note pad everything you're doing from hour to hour from the time you wake up. You'll find something you can do to grab a little extra time. Thanks for the post.
I totally agree! Time flies by very fast! Before you know it, the day is gone. And, sometimes we feel like we have accomplished nothing. Time management works very well.....Thanks for sharing! I think we all feel like this from time to time.
Yes time does seem to go by very fast. Especially when there's things you want to accomplish. That's why I'm now learning to keep a closer eye on where it's going.
Good points. It's called commitment. And that's exactly what you need to become successful in anything. Along with focus, persistence and patience.

Cacao,
I also use the same schedule that you use as well,
this is the only way that I can stay organized. It seems as if I have so much going on these days that if I don't make a schedule at night I will be all jumbled and nothing will be getting done!
I certainly know what you mean. Yes it really does help.
