Finding Time

Don't you wish that sometimes you could turn back the clock?  Everything just seems to rush together.  Your energy seems to get zapped away just thinking of everything that is on your plate.  How do you find time?

Try these few time-finders:
  1. create a to-do list and organize it in order of priority of NEED - then start
  2. look at the daily items you do and determine why you do them.  Is it really necessary to have a perfectly made bed everyday or could you use these 5 minutes elsewhere?
  3. try multi-tasking with the jobs you always put off   IE:  clean out the dishwasher while making supper - it will be ready to load after dinner
  4. try giving a job away to your kids, spouse/partner or team - give good direction and then follow up with recognition and other instruction if required
  5. (this one takes a little longer) make a list of what you do as a routine everyday and eliminate the items that don't make sense to do daily.  Do the same for weekly tasks, monthly tasks, seasonal tasks.  What, from the list, can you delegate to others?
See what works.  If you have other ideas, please share them here!
