Put More Time on Your Side is an excellent summation of her previous five books plus fresh insights ...
Dr. Jan Yager is a sociologist and author who got interested in time management the âhard way.â
At age 20, her 23 year old brother died from injuries sustained from an attempted robbery by a gang. Until that traumatic event, she thought life goes on forever until one dies of old age.
Dr. Yager authored six books on time management.
Put More Time on Your Side is an excellent summation of her previous five books plus fresh insights into additional ways to manage time when in a 24/7 device-connected world.
Below are just three of the many useful ideas this book provides:
Make Time Management a Conscious Activity.
Much of our time that we spend is based on habit or routine. Dr. Yager recommends you take the time to focus on how you are spending time. Improvement will be more likely if you focus.
But how should you focus?
Yager writes, âIf you really want to get ahead, you need to learn how to carve out time every day for your own priorities. It is the priorities you set for yourself and that you finish that will make all the differenceâ.â
Anton Chekov had a busy life as a physician and father, yet he made the necessary time to write the plays that would eventually be his legacy.
One of my favorite parts of Dr. Yagerâs book in the section called âLeaving a Legacy.â She provides five questions to focus on every day:
1. What do I want to accomplish at work in the next 12 months?
2. What do I want to achieve in my personal life in the next 12 months?
3. What relationships do I value the most that I want to put time into?
4. What is my purpose here on earth?
5. What legacy do I want to leave behind?
After you have answered these five key questions, you can then begin to focus on the number one time management skill: prioritizing.
But I Donât Have Enough Time!
Dr. Yager recommends placing a âDo Not Disturbâ sign on your door. Take thirty minutes to mediate, daydream, think, etc. Your day may involve getting lots of little tasks done. But you still need to ask yourself Dr. Yagerâs five questions every day.
Stuck in a cubicle? Take a walk outside the building. Try to leave your mobile device on the desk. Does the weather make it impossible to go outside? Try quietly sitting in your care for 30 minutes without your phone and focus on the five questions.
Dr. Yager recommends that you stop complaining that you donât have enough time to get done all the things you need to get done.
