How to Manage my Time

I have no excuses since I am semi-retired.

I thought man o man when I retire I will have all kinds of time to do what I want.

You know what it is true, there are plenty of hours in the day. To do what I want.

That's were how to manage my time becomes a problem.

I do not know what I want to do.

I do know what I have to do.

When, I was driving a truck full time I didn't get the week-in off. So the week-in is mine for fun and family time.

I have to work on Rice Rentals. Or sell it and I don't want to do that. I have homes and apartments for rent they are worth more to me for the cash flow than selling them.

Doing what I have to do is easy.

It is doing what I want to do is hard.

Making a decision on what I want to do and focusing on them.

Do I want to take Rice Rentals to the next level?

Do I want to keep building Just Be Ready website?

Do I want to promote Wealthy Affiliate?

The answer to the questions above is YES.

So how do I do all that and still have personal and family time?

Self Discipline

I have a choice of doing some non-productive task or work on my business. I did allow for personal time on the week in right.

So I need to keep my leisure activities in the time frame allowed for them.

Stop Procrastinating

First I need to become aware of when I am procrastinating. Then it is back to self-discipline.

Do I really feel bad or am I procrastinating?

Do I really need to stop doing what I am doing or finish task at hand?

Am I making excuses and procrastinating?

I am guilty of Procrastination matter of fact it is one of my biggest

problems to over come. But if I become aware and practice self-discipline I can beat it.

Honestly I have been procrastinating for a long time on writing this post. I even done some procrastinating while writing this.

The Why you Want it

If you know the real why you want to do something then finding the time will be easy.

Lack of confidence

If my confidence is off a little it will affect me a lot and I will let procrastination take over. I don't have to do it perfect just do it and I will get better with practice and training.

Plenty of Time

If,I really know what I want to do.

If,I am passionate about it.

If,I know the real why.

Then scheduling the day, hour, and minute to do it will be no problem.

I have always been bad at managing my time. When,I am at work I do fine driving a truck time is of essence. That falls back to the have to and the want to. Maybe since I am writing about it will help me.

Do you have problems managing time?

Thanks: Joe

I can sympathize! I too am semi retired and feel I have less time now than ever, and it goes twice as fast.
I also have health issues that sap my energy.
We all just have to find what works best for us, continue to adjust as situations change.
Thanks for sharing!

Managing time can be a problem for everyone Joe. Especially when life begins to get in the way.

I am retired but I have less free time now than I ever had when I was working.

Hey Joe! Budgeting your time can be a problem, but just keep working at your site. Perhaps set aside a certain time each day to work on it. I have problems managing my time. Here is a link to a time management training here on WA. Best wishes,
Karin :)

thanks

Thank You for link it looks like an excellent training.

Don’t watch the clock; do what it does. Keep going.

People prioritize what is important to them. There's plenty of time in the day, we just have to use it appropriately.
