Step 1 - There's no such thing as time management!Have you been to a time management course? Read a time management book or an article? And how much of the system you learnt or read about do you use? If you are like most people you will be using less than 5% of what you learnt in your time management course.

Blaming your tools is not going to help you be effective. The key to creating an extra hour a day is changing your mindset to SELF-MANAGEMENT!What is self-management? Mark Victor Hansen, in the book The One Minute Millionaire, says it is "accepting responsibility and not laying blame." I believe self-management is about acknowledging we are responsible for our lives. It is your choices that have created your life. Not your boss or your parents or the government or the wrong time management system or anything else. Yes, those things have an impact, but how you choose to see the circumstances, how you choose to interpret and respond is what determines how effective you are and, ultimately, you determines your life situation.This is scary and exciting at the same time. It can be scary to think about being totally responsible for your life - but this means that you can choose to take control and create what you want in the future. To create and extra hour a day you need to start by adopting a mindset of self-management where you accept responsibility for your life, totally. Then you can start to see new options and opportunities that will create more time. Now you can choose to see those 'effectiveness tips and tools' as part of your self-management toolkit and choose what will work for you. Step 1 -- Not time management but self management. Actions: In the next 24 hours. Reflect on when you might have blamed others/circumstances in the last week & look for how you contributed to the situationClarify your goals and values. Are you really clear about what they are and why you want them?
