The following tips will help you in managing your time effectively. You need to plan your day. Quite a few of us allocate our time according to whatever events that take place during the day. And we end up making the fatal mistakes of dealing primarily with problems rather than opportunities. State each day by making a general schedule. Give emphasis on the two or three major things you like to accomplish. Set deadlines with sufficient safety margins so that you complete your tasks before time. Studies confirm what common sense tells us: the more time we spend planning a project, the less total time is required to do it. Of all the principles of time management, none is more basic than concentration. People who have serious time management problems are invariably those who try to do too many things at once. It is the amount of uninterrupted time that is spent on a project which counts for its success. To work for long periods without taking a break is not effective use of time. Energy
decreases, boredom sets in; physical stress and tension accumulate. Changing of work or even changing position can relieve. When the work area gets chaotic, take time out to reorganize? Put the highest priority item from your pile over your desk, then put everything else out of sight. Remember, you can think of only one thing at a time and you can work on only one task at a time. So, focus all your attention, on the most important.
Answer all the questions:
1. How do people end up dealing with problems than opportunities?
2. Why is concentration necessary in doing anything?
3. How can stress and tension be relieved during work?
4. Why is it necessary to order a sequence of activities?
5. Give a suitable title for this passage
