      Introduction

      There are too many distractions in today’s world of business that few people manage their time effectively. Cell phones, PDA’s, email, RSS News feeds, the Internet, webinars, software updates, the telephone, conference calling, and online bill pay, all created to make our work more productive, can make time much less manageable if not used wisely.

      As people get lots of activities crammed into their lives in an attempt to accomplish more; scheduling, managing, and prioritizing tasks has become even more complicated.

      There is a broad difference between quantity and quality when it comes to managing the use of our time. Few Small business entrepreneurs give little attention to managing their own time compared to watching the activity of their employee’s time.

      Imagine the feeling at the end of the day, knowing you accomplished everything you set out to do and made the best use of your time.

      Imagine having a plan for each day that actually worked!

      One thing is common with humans and that is the fact that everyone has intentions of what he wants to do, be or have. But here's the thing; people fail, not because they do not have intentions. Majority of people fail because they do not carry out the intentions they have of them to achieve their dreams, goals and aspirations.

      The main reason for this lack of success is the lack of mastery of Effective Time and Life Management Strategies.

      This book is packaged to teach you the timeless principles and strategies you will use to achieve more in less time when applied.

      Effective Time and Life Management Strategies will teach you the techniques that will help you free up time for to achieve your most important outcomes, increase performance, take control of your career, and achieve more in less time!

      Chapter One

      The Secret of Getting More Time

      Every day, I hear people say I wish I had more time. They run through from task to task and event to event at light speed, trying to find ways to accomplish more.

      Few people seem to accomplish far more than others in their lifetime. Benjamin Franklin was a successful author, politician, scientist, philosopher, printer, inventor, activist, and diplomat. His accomplishments are astounding. He was a scientist known for his theories and discoveries and gained the recognition of fellow scientists and intellectuals. He was a political writer and activist, and served as a diplomat during the American Revolution. He was a newspaper editor, self published author. Post-Master General, and started the first American library. His credits go on and on.

      Benjamin Franklin is even credited for the statement; ‘Time is money.’ How did he find the time to accomplish all that when many people complained of I don’t have enough time?

      Time is the greatest resource you will have to accomplish everything in life. Whether you want to eat, play, sleep or carry out major projects; you need time. According to Michael Fortino, an expert in time management; an average person spends 7 years in the bathroom, 6 years eating, 5 years waiting in queue, 4 years cleaning homes, 3 years in meetings, 1 year searching for things, 8 months opening junk mails, 6 months waiting at red lights, 120 hours brushing teeth, 4 minutes per day conversing with spouse, and 30 seconds per day conversing with children.

      Time impacts on everything we do both in career, business and profession. Time affects moms and dads, infants and adults and the importance of time and life management is to create effectiveness in the ability of people to cut down the number of time they waste in carrying out unimportant tasks.

      Effective use of time will help you focus more on the things
