Many people get overwhelmed by time management, and for a good reason: managing your time in a world constantly throwing something new at us can be near impossible. How do you stick to a schedule that keeps changing?

“The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot.”
Michael Altshuler

What is Time Management?

Time management is the ability to use one’s time effectively or productively, especially at work.

  • Prioritizing tasks
