LEARNING TO UTILIZE AVAILABLE TIME
Time is a valuable asset and it is important to learn how to may proper use of it. Most of the times, we waste time on things that are much less important and yet leave aside what is important. This is while having a list of your daily activities prepared down would help in making proper utilization of time.
For the past few days, I have been very much unable to balance my activities and proper scheduling them. This is one of the few reasons why I have been most inactive on Hive. Yeah, I was sick last week but I feel I am quite a lot inbalance.
My friend today was discussing with me about managing time and said to me: there is no how a man cannot have enough time for everything that is important to him What that is just needed is proper balancing and doing away little things that waste the little time we have.
I thought of it also, if I can have a proper schedule towards how I plan my day, I would be able to make most of it properly. Yeah, but I feel I may not be 100% into everything I wish to but at least this may bring a little balance.
For me, I am lacking behind a lot of things in school and yet still trying to meet up activities on Hive and Church. I play the guitar in the church and attend rehearsals/programs 3-4 times daily in a week (Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sunday) which makes those days quite very busy for me. School comes by everyday with classwork, assignments and projects. Then the most important to me is Hive because it helps me survive the week financially. I would starve or be stranded and not be able to perform any activity including going to classes if not for Hive. This may sound like I am here mostly for the rewards but yet, I try my best contributing to the system in my own way.
Now, I am tasked to properly scheduling these my activites above in a way they would be balance and none don't lack behind. How well can I do? I don't know, I have been trying but let's see how this coming week would be.

Having a list is a good way to become more organized. I make them not to forget important things. However, many times I start checking them out from the less important ones and those that I can achieve more quickly...and what happens is that those important ones stays there as I eventually run out of time. How bad is this, heheh! So, in a list we should also establish the order :)
Balancing is probably another way to achieve the best results. I believe it is strongly connected with the above mentioned "order" in the list...
And what about procrastination? Do you face that problem? I do sometimes 😑 but I feel bad then so I try to do as many things as possible to make up that hole and we are back to the initial problem, running out of time 🤣🤣
Yeah, making a list is good. I going to be doing that but it very often to follow accordingly as planned. Yeah, procrastination is something that is very normal to people including me. I procrastinate a lot 😪.
Thanks for coming by, I really appreciate.
You are welcome, sometimes it is just the question of time (again that word) that we engage more or not. Luckily, my holidays started so I have more of that :))
Having to balance your schedule is not the easiest thing especially when you have a lot of things to do. But like you said if you can find a way to manage your time properly then you'll be able to attend to the important things.
Yeah... Thanks for reading through. Time management is something someone learn through a gradual process.
I always say if you love or value something enough you'll find the time for it.
You can almost always judge a person by the way he or she spends her time.
Wasting time is something I abhor. I am busy 24x7 x365. Yeah I am busy sleeping for 6-7 hours a day and working the rest of the time.
However, there is one thing I find hard to do, dividing time between my hobbies. I love them all and it tough to say which one comes first.
I need to balance that out.
Right now writing comes first. hehe
Yeah... For everyone, their hobbies comes first. It's always something more important to them. Thanks for coming by, I appreciate.
I will start by saying this is a nice article, getting to manage time to equal or suit activities call for being seriously minded and attentive at every minute to be able to know what to do next.
sometimes we all get carried away by activities we got fixed in our daily activities which may not be the main aim or goal to help achieve our daily goals and objective.
I agree with you on this making a list of daily activities ready. That will actually go a long way helping to call your attention at any appointed time for each activity once the hour comes because it will actually make one focus and not get distracted.
I always fall a victim to not achieving my daily activity due to the reason i got carried away and tend to do everything at once and at the end I fail with out completing my work task.
I will do my best to learn how to manage my time and also start by preparing my to do list for the day and follow it up, hopefully i will end up achieving something at the end of the day.
Thank you.
Yeah bro. This is common to me too. I get carried away with less important activity which is not really meant to be so. So listing would come a long way.

Sometimes you're just so exhausted you can't even do anything. Sometimes I can't even feel myself the whole stress sometimes makes it difficult to even be here, on hive but then, I guess we don't have a choice. Still have a lot of time to go through this. Hopefully you'll find a way to cope.
Bro you are saying exactly how things are for me. Most times, one just get very much exhausted that even coming on Hive can be quite tiring. Somehow, you get to understand the way I feel better.
Making a list is a good start. But let's go further. Try to make a table where you have 4 rows.
something like this one
This is a way to know how much work you have. In my previous work we all had such named "The To Do list". and it helped to do not miss the urgent things.
Wow, this makes a lot of sense.. I love this... Thanks for this input... Would put in to exercise..

"This is why having a list of your daily activities prepared down would help in making proper utilization of time."
You mentioned the major way already.
It happens sometimes that we can be very tired to do the needful. It's no crime. I rest and still do few inevitable activities instead of procrastinating or quitting, till i come back to full functionality.
Hmm... yeah you are right. One can be so tired and instead of wasting the time we can just do an activity that has a lesser stress. Thanks so much for sharing your point. I am very glad to have you here.
