Two Great Tips to Make More Time in Your Day
Self Improvement October 9th, 2007
One of the most common complaints for people who operate their own
business is that there simply isn’t enough time in the day. Well,
obviously there is no way to add more time to our days, but there
are some things we can all do to have more working time in our days.
The first thing we can do is sleep less. For some people this isn’t
an option because they are already going on the least sleep
possible. But if you get more sleep than you need, then try staying
up an hour later or getting up and hour earlier. You just have to
figure out which one is for you. Some people are more productive at
night while others are more productive in the morning. So figure
out when you do your best work and extend that part of your day by
an hour.
You can also try adjusting your sleeping patterns rather than
shortening them. In other words, you can try shortening your day at
one end and lengthening it at the other end. For example, if you
are a morning person and you find that you can only stare at the
television and veg-out for the last couple hours you’re up, then
you should go to bed an hour earlier (rather than waste it watching
television) and then get up and hour earlier to work.
You do have to be careful when toying with your sleep though. You
don’t want to get so little sleep that you aren’t productive while
you’re awake and working. So make sure you still feel refreshed and
ready to go when you wake-up.
The second tip for creating more time in your day involves
something we mentioned in the first tip – watching television.
Television is a giant mind sucking machine that takes up more of
our time than any of us would like to admit. In fact, many of us
probably don’t even realize how much time we waste plugged into
something that does nothing more than (at best) entertain us.
Try this experiment, right down all the time you spend watching
television in one week. Chart every single minute. Then multiply
the hours by 52. Then multiply that by a modest income like ten
dollars an hour. What number did you come up with? Five thousand
dollars? Ten thousand dollars? More? Now multiply that by the
number of years you’ve been watching television as an adult. Make
you sick? Just think about what you could have accomplished or the
money you could have made while you’re sitting in front of the
television.
I’m not going to tell you to throw your television out the window
and never watch it again, because I do think it’s useful to help
people unwind and/or relax. But don’t spend more than an hour or
two in front of the television. Spend less if possible.
One more, big, no-no involving the television: Many people have
laptops that they work on while watching television. Others have
their desktops in the same room with the television. Do not waste
your time or effort trying to work with the television on. It might
make working easier but what you’re actually doing is making things
take three to four times longer. So when you’re working – work. And
then you can just watch television when the work’s done.
We all complain that we don’t have enough time in our day. But just
by adjusting our sleeping patterns and our television watching
habits, we can all create at least another hour or two of work in
our days.
