Shall we do time management or activities management?

Recently, I have  learned a new idea on productivity improvement from the 11 forgotten laws. That is: we should perform activities management instead of time management.

Do you have such experiences? when you are absorbed in doing something, the time flies relatively slower. You perhaps used only half of the usual time to complete the same thing.

Paying too much attention to time will bring nervous to some of us, if so, just let go the time management. Focus on your activities, especially those relating with your goals.

Anything which makes you feel stressful will not work for you. We use time management just to finish our activities, so why not directly manage activities?

Time can’t be managed, because unexpected things will always interrupt you. Once you can’t finish your segment-goal in planned time, you will not feel comfortable. You now know, uncomfortable feelings will bring more of the similar if you don’t take measure to change it.

There is no absolute right or wrong for time management or activities management. The key is your feelings. Do your time management go well these days? If not, try the simple activities management.

How to do activities management – an overview

It is also a big subject for activities management. so here we only share the basic steps for it. But they do work.

1 make to-be list

This is the first step to a successful activities management. We don’t want to manage all the activities, instead, we only care the important things.

But what are the important activities? Let us make it clear from your to-be list.

to-be list is a list including what you want to be, have or own. It can mean the physical things, character or spiritual improvement.

Sit down quietly and write down the list, or , you can make it in your mind and see it using your mind eyes.

Visualize every thing in the list, attach your emotions and enjoy the feelings of being in it.

This step is like what mentioned in “make inspired plan“, but it goes further.

2 make to-do list

We are all familiar with this step. just listing the things to do is easy, but to list the important things to do is not so easy.

Make you feel good while listing your things or activities. Once you finish the first step, you will connect with your inner self and focus on your goals. Close your eyes and pay attention to your feelings, every thing which doesn’t fit your goals will not make you feel happy.

Review the things in your list and feel them. Don’t make too much things in the list. Generally speaking, 6 is more than enough.

It is worthwhile to spend minutes on these two steps, because they are making you rushing on the right way.

3 visualize to confirm your to-do list and affirm it

With the two steps above, you are advancing towards your goals in the right direction. But do you want more guidance so as to reach there in less time?

Visualization and affirmation will do.

I prefer to visualize for I can easily attach my emotions during the process. and I take the words in the visualization as affirmations too.

For each thing in the to-do list, visualize what you will do or have when you complete it. Be in the feelings and be one with them.

Always value more at the result than the process. We can have more than one way to the desires. for me, I tend to make clear the end result, I describe the details of the result in my mind and try to be in it.

Love you.
