Making the Best of Your Time and Life

Businesspeople are used to quote "time is money". In fact time is much more than just money; it is life. Time is something that we all have little of; it only grows younger as we grow older.

We frequently hear people complaining "If only I had more time" or "I just don't know where my time flies". The truth is we can't manage time; but we certainly can choose what to do with the available time.

This Management Tool Kit has three phases.

Phase 1: Insight

• An initial questionnaire to assess your current knowledge level about priority management; it will also explore the extent of your understanding of most common time wasters.

• Time Log: this document will record all your activities for a week and help you perform an in-depth analysis of your usage of time to identify any wasters and examine ways for better time use.

Your enrolment in "Making the Best of Your Time and Life" learning lab will expose you to deep learning for the following topics:

We will walk you through the different time challenges you faced and track your progress.
