Time management is very important start by making a to do list and take breaks if needed
making a list allows me to focus on the most relevant topics first and assists myself in performing tasks in a timely manner
I am already a list maker, but I tend to rewrite them often. I like the idea of highlighting things from the original list and wasting less time rewriting them.
In order to take control of our time we need to have a goof balance of immediacy and procrastination while prioritizing certain tasks rather than completing the "easier" or "simpler" tasks first.
I fall into that 95% of occasional procrastination and mostly with my private life. I have always made "to do" lists but never thought about giving them numbers regarding their importance. I will have to try this in order to increase my time management skills.

Making a to do list helps with time management.
Growing up in a military household, I was taught time management from a very young age.
I learned that a "to-do list" has to be organized, too. Procrastination will cause more issues with time management.
To do lists helps to stay organized. I really like assigning "important/urgent" or "important/not urgent" etc to tasks so I can prioritize them.
I've learned the importance of time management, and the best way to create and utilize a to do list for maximum benefits.
