Attaining Objectives through Effective Time Management



I would suggest you would need to consider 5 factors to reach an effective way of managing your time :

1.Take control of your mind
The mind is fickle , unsteady & restless . It tends to worry about the past and become anxious about the future. The mind needs a powerful intellect to focus its attention on the present occupation. It is thus important to develop and strengthen the intellect to be able to manage the wavering mind. 

2.Set up objectives
What you are inherently strong at is known as your svadharma while what is alien to you is known as paradharma. You have to decide whether you wish to be an accomplished cricketer , a footballer like Messi, a top oncologist pursuing cancer research or a business development expert using cutting edge technology. You need to figure out what would make you stand out of the crowd and what you enjoy doing .Even a 5% edge would give you a headstart.

3.Identify quality & quantity of resources
Once your objectives are set determine the resources and the number of hours and special training you require to attain your objective. This could be field infrastructure, coaching fees and hours, time required, the books you need to buy.You must also consider a suitable peer group who would strive towards a similar cause. 

4.Plan your life’s project backwards
Assess the years required to complete your project.If it requires 30 years break up the project into two parts of 15 years each. And to complete the first part of the project in fifteen years ,you must decide what you would like to complete in the first 5 years .Then break up your targets in 3 years, two years and a 1 year timeframe. 

5.Effectively Maximise utilisation of 24 hours
Every human being is composed of three different mental temparaments – Sattva, Rajas and Tamas.
Sattva is the state of mind in equanimity, and serenity. It is free from worldly entanglement and consequent mental agitation.
Rajas is the state of mind replete with desires, passions and agitations. This entangles one with the affairs of the world.
Tamas is a state of inertia appearing a lethargy, indolence and indifference. Tamasik personalities have no intellectual conviction to pursue, no emotional feeling to manifest .
The law of nature suggests that the sattvik temperament in a person surfaces in the early hours of the morning between 4am and 6am .Rajas manifests between 6am to 6pm and tamas emerges after 6pm. For best reflection, planning and programming your work you must make best use of the time between 4am and 6pm when you are calm, composed and reflective.
