Where's the time? When we have such a question, it means that our work has entered a stage where there is no goal and no focus. We are busy every day, but when we get off work, we feel that there is nothing important to do. At this time, we must stop and make changes in a timely manner. First, we need to manage time, so that we can do more fulfilling things in an effective time.
Post-it plan
This is a relatively old-fashioned method, using conspicuous post-it notes to plan the work content and working hours of the next day, and then post it on the most visible position in front of the computer screen to complete a complete time system.
Mind mapping to plan
The use of mind maps to manage time is divided into four steps: collection, collation, execution, and summary. It can also be called a combination of "Planning Law" and "Memorandum Law". Use the quick drawing website to create a plan list and plan ahead to do things.
Draw a complete mind map, and operate around the mind map in the work of the next day. If you feel that there is something wrong in the day, you can wait for the work to end and modify the mind map.
The use of mind maps for planning has great advantages: first, the content is highly complete and the levels are clear. The second is that it can be changed at any time during the editing process, which is more convenient.
Time "Four Images" Method
This method refers to a method of dividing work into two different levels of importance and urgency, and dividing tasks into four quadrants.
Not important or urgent
This thing can be done when idle and boring. For example: reading novels, watching TV, chatting in the office, etc.
Urgent but unimportant
You can decide whether to do it according to your needs. For example: telephone conference, visitors can count.
Important but not urgent
This can be a long-term planning process that has to be done but is not an urgently needed thing. For example: asking questions to superiors, self-study or work summary.
Urgent and important
What must be done right away is a time to test our judgment. For example: rescue and disaster relief.
The four-image rule is used to divide the urgency of things in the work, just like it is easy to change after the exam, and this method is step by step.
Self-setting time point
As the saying goes, there is no motivation without pressure. According to the difficulty of a thing, we set a deadline for completion. During this time, we must complete and ensure a high-quality completion.
This reminds the editor of a working method-the Pomodoro Method, chooses a task to be completed, sets the Pomodoro World to 25 minutes, and does not allow you to do anything unrelated to the thing during the work until the Pomodoro starts .
Take a short break and relax by watching the news. When you wait for the Pomodoro to sound again, you have to concentrate on the work and do the cycle.
This method is of great help to friends with procrastination patients and makes time tight. Only by recognizing these points from the heart can we take the work more seriously.
The above four methods of time management are shared. Do not blindly perform mechanized operations on the work every day. We must learn to use time reasonably and do more meaningful things in a limited time.
