Get Control of Your Life

March 1, 2010 · Print This Article

In order to achieve goals and become your best, you need to gain control over your time. It’s well understood that having a sense of control over your life is the foundation of happiness, confidence and well-being.

Use every time saving skill or tool in your arsenal to gain mastery over your day. Discipline yourself to work on your most valuable tasks first, while your energy is high.

Changing your life to increase time mastery often requires making new decisions about how you will spend your time. It may require you to learn a new set of skills or learn a new way of doing an old thing.

The truth is, you can’t manage time, but you can manage yourself. Plan your day in advance — the night before. Make a list of what you need to accomplish the next day and let your subconscious have some time to work on it while you sleep. This is covert learning at its best.

Don’t be surprised if, when you awaken the next morning, you have ideas or insights that help you check off items on your list!
