What is time management?
A useful definition of time management might be, The ability to use one’s time effectively and efficiently.

Now that’s sounds simple, right? If only accomplishing our goals was truly simple, all of us would likely be in better places both personally and professionally. However, the reality of our lives tends to create demands on our time that get in the way of effective and efficient uses of time.

A fact that is inescapable about time is that it is finite. We simply cannot “manage” more time out of our day or lives. A day comes and goes, and no matter how much we’d like things to be different, each day lasts only 24 hours. 

Therefore, in a very real sense, we can never “manage” time the way we manage other factors that influence our success at home or at work. We have to think about time differently if our goal is to be more effective and more efficient.
