24 hours a day feels insufficient? Here is how you can make the most of it!

Time is the most rational element in our lives. All of us get the same quota every day. 24 golden hours every single day. We have the same number of hours as Elon Musk and why aren’t we not hustling for our dreams? Maybe we are wasting more time than we want to. Unconsciously, there is so much of our time wasted performing unproductive tasks.

Time Management is a key skill that will take you closer to the life of your dreams. Let’s understand how to manage our time better:

1. Maintain a static schedule

You know how your brain works. There are time frames during the day or night when your brain is working at its peak. Fix up those slots as a part of your static schedule. Ensure that these time slots are blocked out every day for the most important tasks. These tasks are the ones that are going to make your life better than it already is.
Do not dilute these time slots. Do not compromise or ration the efforts you put in during this slot. Be disciplined and strict with yourself if need be to tick off the prime most tasks during this time of the day.

2. Have a dynamic time slot

You can take a breather here. These slots are quite flexible. These are time frames where we are neither too productive nor too lazy. Make sure you do not have a rigid schedule during these time slots. Juggle between a little to highly-interesting tasks during this period. For eg: Prepare for Language exams, write your record, etc.

3. Prioritise

Every successful person has decoded one thing in common. Prioritizing. It is important to prioritize your list of tasks every day. Preferably the night before. This will help you wake up with a purpose and start hunting your day down with determination and grit.
Make time for everything important and urgent. The ones that are least essential and not time-bound can be worked on at a slower pace. Prioritizing your tasks is the core aspect of time management.

4. Stay away from distractions

Multitasking is an appreciable skill but not when you are working on your dreams. Multitasking is risking multiple tasks at the same time rather than working on one. Focus on the task at hand to make the most out of your time.

Concentrate on one task at a time and eliminate all distractions. If you are studying, stay away from your phone to google stuff. If you do, you will find yourself scrolling through Instagram reels and 1 hour would have lapsed just like that. Anybody serious about their dream would never let that happen.

Engaging, networking, and interacting with people with the same growth mindset as yours will make you 5x more productive. Come be a part of Younity, India’s largest student community. Join us today!
