Happy Birthday 🎁 🎂 To Myself

We’re all so busy living out our lives. Time never seems to wait for us to catch up with her. I find myself standing at the door waving farewell to her every evening when I arrive from work and realize I only have a couple of hours left before lights out and am up again for work the next morning. We all have this favourite expression when it comes to being stressed out, and I wouldn’t bother naming all of them since it may also vary in different languages.

But when it comes down to it, I think that it is how we work or even relax, for that matter that triggers stress. Ever been stressed even when you’re well relaxed and bored? I know I have.

It’s important to find ways to decrease and prevent stressful incidents and decrease negative reactions to stress. Here are some of the things that can be done by just remembering it, since life is basically a routine to follow like brushing our teeth or eating breakfast. We can do a few of them in a longer span of time, but as they say – “Every minute counts.”

Managing our time

Time management skills can allow us more precious time to spend with our family and friends and possibly increase our performance and productivity. This alternatively will help reduce our stress.

Here are a few things we can do to help improve our time management:

1. Save time by focusing and concentrating, delegating, and scheduling a time for yourself.

2. Keep a record of how you spend your time, including work, family, and leisure time.

3. Prioritize your time by rating tasks by importance and urgency. Redirect your time to those activities that are important and meaningful to you.4. Manage your commitments by not over- or under-committing. Don’t commit to what is not important to you.
