How Best To Utilize Time
http://az616578.vo.msecnd.net/files/2016/12/22/6361796709723034612039581096_time-7.jpg

Tick Tick Tick; that’s the clock moving in a progressive manner without taking a nap or a rest from its ever continuous work. 

Just as the clock moves non stop, so does virtually everything on the planet; nothing is constant. Plants grow, animals reproduce, technology improves, even the earth keeps moving.

> Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.― Mother Teresa

Time, when it is invested wisely in things that are profitable, it is one of humans’ free gift but it can in turn be a curse when used for irrelevant things. Time itself has no purpose for existence except to count ages but the process of putting it into a meaningful act gives it a purpose.

There are many fully grown, empty headed, time wasters roaming the street on a daily basis celebrating their birthdays (I don’t mean it is wrong to celebrate birthdays). Birthdays should not be the celebration of the day you were born, it should be the celebration of purpose, why you were born (this doesn’t apply to children) and the reason why you exist.

Time is the only gift that is given to us equally by nature; each human is entitled to 24hours a day which looks very little, yet some people tend to achieve a lot more than others. It sounds strange, but it all falls back to how well we make use of the gift giving to us by life.

# How Best To Utilize Time

## •  Organize Yourself
In other to achieve a 100% maximum utility of your time, you need to know how to organize yourself and make sure that you do not waste any of it. 

There is a difference between working hard and working effectively. Working effectively is based on how well you use and manage your time.

## •  Set Clear Goals
In other to get maximum utility from your 24 hours gift, you need to sit down and arrange your daily activity; fix the fixable and remove the unneeded. Separate time for fun from time for work and the same goes for every other thing that requires time to be a success.

## •  Prioritize Your Time
You should know what time to do things. All things are to be done, but not all things need to be done at a particular time. Split your activities into two columns **Urgency** and **Importance**.

## •  Shun Every form of Procrastination
Nothing destroys time as procrastination. Procrastination has cost a lot of things in life and I’ve vowed never to let it get hold of me again with the help of my **DO IT NOW** slogan. Never procrastinate it destroys life.

# Conclusion

Every man has been given the same  amount of time, no one has higher than the other. so why not start making quality use of your precious time and i can guarantee a positive change in all your activities.

* Do you think you use your time productively? 

* How often do you procrastinate

* What results have you been getting

* Have you ever tried to set plans and how has it been of help

Use the 80/20 rule, over and over.   What is the source of 80% of my results?  Focus on that.  What is the source of 80% of my problems/time wasting?  Get rid of that.

Had me LOLing.

> Every man has been given the same amount of time, no one has higher than the other. 

Very true. There's a book written by Seneca, On The Shortness of Time, and I never fail to mention it because it's so profound.

The core concept is simple: there's enough time for everyone, so don't lose it doing something unnecessary.

Agree with the rest of your points. Quite an enjoyable read there. :)

Thank you for sharing!
