Conventional time management (CTM) is about doing the right things, and Inner Time Management (ITM) is about doing things right. The essential CTM skills are to identify long-term goals, break down projects, prioritize tasks, estimate how long it will take to do things, and organize and schedule tasks. You can learn these essential skills by following these links and doing the exercises:
- Before working on goals and life directions, it's good to clarify where things are right now. To get a clear and complete picture of your life as it is today, do the Life Patterning Exercise.
- To see which of your roles in life are being exercised, stressed, or ignored, and to help develop balance among your roles, do the Role Cycling Exercise.
- To get more perspective on your values and long-range goals and priorities, try Reviewing Life
- To get a big picture of your objectives in the major areas of life, and to identify and prioritize these objectives, try this exercise: Lifetime Goals in Seven Areas
- Why should we set priorities and how can we do it? Take a look at Determining Priorities.
- Once you've determined some projects that you want to accomplish, what do you do? Take a look at Handling Projects.
- Done identifying tasks? Time for Scheduling
