MYTHS about Time Management

 If you are EFFICIENT you must be EFFECTIVE too.  If you want a job done well, DO IT YOURSELF.  There is only ONE CORRECT WAY to do a job.  You can t be productive unless you are BUSY ALL THE TIME.

WHY DO WE PROCRASTINATE?
 Things seem to be UNPLEASANT.  I DO NOT WANT to do it.  If I PUT OFF something long enough SOME ONE ELSE WILL DO IT.  I do not know WHERE OR HOW TO BEGIN.  I fiddle around for hours doing easy or unimportant jobs.
PROCASTINATION IS THE THIEF OF TIME

OVERCOMING PROCRASTINATION.
 ADMIT the fact that you procrastinate. START DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT.  Take more POSITIVE ATTITUDE towards the work.  Accept that the job is not going to go away if you procrastinate.  Draw INSPIRATION FROM PAST SUCCESSES.
