rank your tasks according to their priority

For many people, stress arises or is exacerbated by time pressure; the feeling that there is too much to do in one day or week. Many claim that learning how to manage time is one of the most important ways to reduce stress, but I only partly agree with that, since time is not truly manageable.

Each of us has the same amount of time in which to live our life and do what we want to do. What really separates happy and successful people from others is not that they have more time, but that they are good at focusing on the right things: those things that really matter (as opposed to those that may only seem outwardly important or urgent).

Effective time management really involves prioritizing and planning your activities effectively, as well as thinking of creative ways to get more out of your day. Although this itself takes time, it is important because it will save you time and reduce your stress in the long run. If you think you could benefit from prioritizing and organizing those important things in your life, use the following tips and ideas:

List all the tasks that you think you need to do in a day (or a week or a month, depending on how skilled you are in forward thinking and planning); Then title those tasks as follows, in order of importance:

Tasks A: These are the important tasks that also need to be completed immediately, such as dealing with crises or projects that have a deadline set.

Task B: These are the important tasks but they don't necessarily have to be done right away. Such as preparing for something, doing research, or planning health or recreational activities.

Task C: These are tasks that we need to do someday but don't need to do now. For example, some phone calls, short business trips, long-term projects that would be nice to take on but aren't urgent and won't lead to any trouble if not dealt with.

Task D: All unimportant, non-urgent, and time-consuming tasks, such as watching TV and surfing the Internet.

The secret to managing time effectively, or as I put it, managing priorities effectively, is to allocate as much time as possible to tasks (A) and (B), and to reduce the time spent on tasks (C), especially tasks (D). Of course, you'll have to put some time into tasks C and D, and that's okay, but if you're looking for ways to be more productive, more effective, happier, and more successful, you can—unless you can afford to increase the number of hours in the day.
