John Kennedy said, "We must use time as a tool, not a crutch."...But he never told us how to do it...

I was driving home today from New Jersey and I was thinking about everything that I had to do when I got home...It was then that I started to get overwhelmed...I paused for a moment and thought to myself...Why do I feel the way that I do right now?? The answer to my question hit me...I am poor at TIME MANAGEMENT...I need to learn how to manage my day better...Do I time block...Yes, but is it effective...Obviously not!!! So I came home and Googled "the key to successful time management" I figured that was an appropriate term... I came across this GREAT article by Bobby L. Butler, in the intro there was a quote that hit me smack dab in-between the eyes..."Time is what we want most, but what we use worst."

What a quote...It really got me thinking...What can I do..What can we do as professionals to manage our time more effectively? Is that a question that I can answer? NO ABSOLUTLY NOT in fact...I was hoping someone who read this blog had this MAGIC ANSWER and reply LOL..

The drive home got me thinking though...Read this article and tell me what you think!!!!
