Before we start…
This session is not meant to be a comprehensive alternate to
the ubiquitous trainings / resources on time management
I strongly urge you to spend some time seeing this
YouTube video from Tony Schwartz – “Manage your energy,
not your time”
Seriously commit to applying some of these practices in your
daily life – Else this session and these resources will not
improve your life
Many of the techniques mentioned in this session can be
easily converted to habits
This session applies equally to professional and personal life

Not all jobs need this skill

Important Don’ts
Over-schedule your day – you become
inflexible and stressed
