Eisenhower Matrix: Time management is hard work. But the 4 quadrants framework helps us prioritise this work. Once we have a priority, we can focus our energies on completing these things and managing our workload. The most important takeaway from the Eisenhower matrix is to ensure that we have created space and time for the most important things rather than merely the urgent ones.
Time management is about making the best use of time. Stress management is about managing your emotional health, mental peace and performing without being overwhelmed. The two are connected because sometimes when things don’t go as per time, missed deadlines have an impact. These potential impacts immediately cause stress making us think about the ramifications of not doing things on time.
We speak of time management as a mythical skill set. But at the core of it, time management is a simple exercise if we rationally follow a few strategies that help us be mindful of our time. It all starts with a brutally honest opinion about how our time is used and the knowledge of the things demanding our time. If we don’t have visibility of these things, there’s nothing to manage. Time management in such a scenario is a hoax. In this article, let’s talk about a few time management strategies that will help you stay on top of time and your priorities.
This quote talks to me about the simplicity and power of good thoughts and actions. One person may not be too big to make all the difference in the world. But one person can create a ripple effect by doing something that the rest of the world joins in. The beauty of this quote is not just in the humility Mother Teresa reflects in the quote. It is also about the belief in others and resonance that can create a ripple effect to cast a wide enough change for the world to revel in.
Swami Vivekananda’s quotes talk about the importance of self-belief, confidence and trusting oneself before thinking about the sacred realm. In this quote, the inspiration is to find ourselves and trust in our thoughts, emotions and inner power. Unless we find a pathway to do this, the conversations about god and spirituality are pointless.
Self-belief is sacred and pure
What you believe about yourself, the world believes about you
You project your thoughts – unless you believe, you can’t convince anyone else
