Time Management
Time Management is the single most important resource available to career searchers. It was once said in the movie, Star Trek: "Time is the Fire in which we all burn!"
Simply, managing our time puts us on par with the Rich and Famous. Why? Because we all have only 24 hours within a day. Moreover, The Donald (Trump) has said that he doesn't 'multi-task.' He is Single-Focused. Oh, by the way, Mr. Trump is a Billionaire (capital 'B')

Time Management 101: Make the Most of Your Day, Life
(NewsUSA) - Procrastination might be the subject of many
jokes, but wasting time is no laughing matter. Every person is equal in one thing -- a limited amount of time. How people use that time determines their lifestyle and income, separating the
Oprah Winfreys and the Donald Trumps from the rest of the rat race.
In an interview with SUCCESS Magazine (www.successmagazine.com), Dr. Mehmet Oz, vice-chair and professor of surgery at Columbia University, writer and a regular on T.V. and radio, said, "It's not about time management. It's about energy management. The things you
do should give you that zest for life."
If you love what you are doing, you are far more
likely to do your job efficiently and effectively. Darren Hardy, publisher and editorial director of SUCCESS Magazine, suggests approaching time management as an investor, and looking to get the best return on expended energy. "Your management task," says Hardy, "is to spend more time on what gives you energy and to guard against, eliminate, delegate or mitigate your time on those things that take energy away from you."
America's Ambassador of Possibility Whether you want to write or promote a book, create a speaking career, market a product or a business, or create wealth in general - here is an offer you won't want to miss.
Hardy offers the following advice for Americans looking to
use their time more effectively:
-Discern wasted time. According to one study, American
employees working 40 hour weeks waste 50 percent of their time on unproductive, low-priority tasks, and then another 37 percent working on personal business, surfing the Internet, eating lunch,
taking breaks and chatting. Most people are productive for only 10 hours each week.
Take an honest look at the amount of time you waste, and imagine what you could accomplish with those extra
hours.
-Prioritize energy. Urgent tasks are deadline-based, and important tasks are those on which you want to utilize your time. Finish urgent tasks first. If a task is urgent but not
important, try delegating it.
-Set standards. Life is a series of trades -- we trade time
for money, work time for family time, gym time for television time. Define your values, and always trade your time towards those values.
