Time management is the process of planning and
controlling how much time to spend on specific activities.
Good time management enables an individual to
complete more in a shorter period of time, lowers stress,
and leads to career success.

Failing to manage your time damages your effectiveness

and causes stress.

We are killing our time and not caring for it. But later
on time is killing us.

We should properly utilize our time effectively, not waste

our time.

Actually we think more and do little. “Time and Tide

wait for none”

We should prioritize our work.

It is important for us to understand, “what is important

and what is urgent” . We must do urgent work first.
