It's very important to set goals, and not just work goals but personal ones as well. The goals provide a sort of life map. This can help to avoid work overload, and help to provide life balance.
Having the right people for each job is the first step in providing exemplary student service.
From this module, I have gained valuable insights into time management, productivity, and strategies for effective decision-making. I find myself relating to many of the issues discussed, and it has become apparent that I need to address certain bad habits that I may not have been fully aware of.
Figure out what I"m wasting time on and shift priorities.
I plan to review the discussion points and handouts to further self-reflect. I have also bookmarked several questions/reflections I would like to review within my team.
Time management will allow me to make more purposeful choices with the time that I have each day. I liked the quote "Live your days in accordance with how you would want to live your life."
I have learned to ask for help when needed and not expect myself to always feel pressured to take on the world.
Time management is key to a productive and effective work style.
I did not realize how poor my time management was. I was sure I was doing great but it started to show that I was not. This course helped me to realize strengths and shortcomings!
I've learned the importance of prioritizing goals according to the amount of resources needed to complete each task.
I have learned that I really am terrible at time management. I push myself to hard, I am overly tired, worried about work constatntly, answer emails all the time, and stress myself out. And I multitask.
I learned many valuable tools in this module from timeblocking and prioritizing my days into three main tasks and finding where my peaks and valleys are in my energy levels. I find value in being able to know yourself well enough to know what the best times of day will be to perform specific tasks or funcitons, such as more routine and monotonous tasks when energy is low and more creative or complex tasks when you have the most energy or mental clarity. In one of the linked podcast episodes, they spoke on creating a timeblock calendar to run by your boss to gather feedback on the most important tasks in a week. I think it's also important to schedule contingency time, especially in our field, becuase little fires or challenges can come up in a moment's notice. This way you still have time carved out to complete the tasks that you need to do as well as want to do.
I have learned to take mental breaks no shorter than 3 minutes, and go for a walk outside to help ease any burnout.
Time Management is important to have to complete all required task and complete.
I gained better perspective on how to manage time wisely. There should be a balance for work and play.
And the idea of incentivizing self is very motivating.
I have learned to better prioritize tasks for the day ahead based on what is most important. In addition, I will try to be better at paying more attention to when I might be trying to procrastinate or multitask and aim to focus my energy on one task so I can get it done effectively and do quality work.
It is always great to identify new strategies and refresh old ones that could help us manage time more effectively.
Simple, straightforward, practical session!
I believe that effective communication, direction, and the perceived outcome will help meet this goal of effective time management.
This is sssoooo important to being productive and the end result is success!
using one's time to the best your ability is imperative
