- Know what you need to do every day.
- Divide tasks so that they are completed on the specified day.
* Setting a time limit for each task:
It should be very clear when you plan your day by setting a time limit for each task, for example task A 10-3 because it allows you not to do the task on the other and eat on time and also do other activities.
* Reward yourself for any achievement:
If you do anything, try to celebrate it. The way you reward yourself is up to you to motivate yourself to follow the next day's plan. Helps you increase your time management skills along with the ease of doing other tasks.

When you are aiming to finish the task or goal at a specific time. Some may be late to finish the task but when you select an early time to finish the task you can accomplish it on time.

* Make a reminder on your mobile phone 15 minutes before the end of Elm: one of the most important functions of its calendar are reminders. If you have an important meeting to attend, you can set this reminder 15 minutes ago.
* Focus:
We mean the lack of multitasking and focus on the performance of one task at a specific time and then move to another task and the most important thing is to focus on one main task. It is best to close all applications you do not use, browsers and social networking sites such as Facebook to focus attention on what you do only and implement it efficiently.
* Avoid distractions:
What distracts attention from work? Is instant messaging? Phone calls? All of these things are deviations from your primary goal.

To learn how to spend your time, analyze your activities by writing activities that achieve your goals well and can be categorized as follows:
- Urgent and important things.
- Urgent and not important.
- Matters are important and not urgent.
- Things are not urgent and not important.
You may find this way that you spend more than 30% of your time in unnecessary activities that this analysis helps you to report
* Delegate:
We mean if there are things that someone can do better than others or that these things are not so important you can consider delegating someone else to do them to focus on important tasks.
* Do similar tasks together:
You can classify similar and related works together. For example, do basic groups (writing articles, books), b (training) and (workshop development) so you can allocate time to make phone calls.
* Eliminate Time-Lost Elements:
It takes a long time away from your business to surf Facebook, Twitter or check email. You can specify a specific time after the completion of daily tasks to follow up all these things and work to close them while doing the specific work.
* Leave time between each and every task:
Do not try to do all the tasks on a continuous basis, leaving a break time of about 5-10 minutes between each task and the other because this helps you finish the previous task and start the next stage in a good way.
* Keep working with you:
If you have extra time on an airplane or train or waiting for something you can keep working with you to do something at this time.
