Priorities, Time Management and List Building Skills in Your Life and at the Jobsite

Time is all we have in life. It can be said as a truism that we get too late smart in life. Time management is like that. We only have a limited amount of grains of sand in the hourglass sundial clocks of our lives. Eighty percent of the results of all efforts and projects all depend on only 20 % of chosen actions. Thus you have to focus on the meaningful productive and well chosen components of all your plans and planning if you want to get anywhere and ultimately anywhere in your life both for yourself, your family and co-workers on the job or jobsites.

It has been noted and observed by many tem management consultants and "efficiency experts" that some , if not a majority , of people are way to pre occupied with just too many , if not ultimately trivial if not inconsequential things. Look at the amount of people that you will meet in your travels whose only focus is either "American Idol", the TV "Soap Operas" or worse. That these people cannot seem to find the time or effort to even plan or too coordinate their day and daytime periods may be plain just out of your comprehension and the way that you conduct yourself on planet earth. Lots of luck you might think. Hopefully they will get over it, seek maturity and get on with their lives and careers. I would not bet good money on that proposition.

Some of the people that you will meet on the "street" or on the highways and byways of life may simply that they are just "too busy" to take that extra effort simply to even make a list , or a series of "lists" of their daily tasks to be done. Yet the statement is more than true that if "You do not place your actions to be on paper, then they Just Do Not Count". Ultimately you can bet that hence these essential activities will not get done, by the end of the day.

Why is list building and priority ranking just so important when it comes to productivity and efficiency? Imagine a large ship without a rudder. Without a navigation devices and a rudder to point the way, and maintain that tack, the ship would simply be aimless, traveling, making speed and headway, well at least to untrained, non- expert observers. Yet to a trained agent - they would realize that the vessel was to speak -"lost at sea". All efforts and all energies would simply be wasted - a full and vast waste of time. The ship will flounder around - its sailors working hard, to their greatest energy and energies. Yet the ship will in the end never finish its journey, it will not reach its goal, its cargo will not be delivered successfully, it will never reach its port of call. That boat on the high seas will be like "a ship without a rudder".

Without a routine, and the employee of lists, priorities and schedules you too can become an aimless soul. To become productive and efficient at the workplace and to your family friends and communities, plan ahead, prioritize and employ list building skills to their successful fruition and full process.
