When you offload the main points to keepin mind are that.
You don’t have to do everything everybody
tells you to do.
You don’t have to do everything the way otherpeople tell you to do it.
You don’t have to do everything according tothe other person’s time frame.
You don’t have to do everything yourself.
Being busy does not make u successful.
Getting things done does. You have to please others but first you have to
please yourself.

PICK AND CHOOSE WISELY When people start to complain that they
don’t have enough time to do everythingthey want to do, it is when they just havetoo much to do.
The number of things that a person wants todo is infinite but our time is limited. Wecan only accomplish so much in a givenday
To do this we have to pick and choose wiselythe tasks that are more important to us.

ELIMINATE USELESS OR TIMECONSUMING ACTIVITIES
Part of being a productive worker is avoidinginterruptions and putting in the necessarytime to complete tasks.
Sometimes when we have multiple
responsibilities, the solution is to get otherpeople to do as many of the non-criticalactivities that you are able to afford to giveup.

IF YOU WANT IT, ASK FORIT This principle – if you want it, ask for it – is
true in virtually every facet of life –marriage, childhood, parenting and timemanagement.
Ask for what you want. Demand for whatyou want. Insist on what you want. Notevery time and every situation. The pointis that unless you ask you will never know
whether you will get it.

A few points to keep in mind are:-If you need more time for a project, ask. You
just might get it.
If you don’t want to take on an activity, tell
the other person you don’t want to do it. That person might find someone else to doit or do it himself.
If a deadline, working arrangement, or
situation is not right for you, tell the otherperson so. That person often adjusts his orher needs to fit your preferences.
Need a break? Ask for one. You just might
get it.

ACT AS IF YOU HAVE ONLY ONE LIFE TO LIVE
If you don’t think that your time is limitedthen you have no reason to offloadirrelevant tasks and stick to priorities.
This mainly happens in our youth when we
feel no urgency in life. There was also thenotion of tomorrow.
All of that changes when we reach the ageof 40

We realize that we have another 10 to 20years to achieve our professional goals.
You concentrate more on what’s good foryou and less on what everybody else
wants you to do.If you can adapt this over 40 mindset even if
you are fewer than 40 then you can gaintremendous leverage in negotiating the
use of your time

The over 40 mindset helps you to realizethat you not have to please other peopleall the time

Use phone calls, faxes, teleconferences orvideoconferences more often instead of travelling. These not only save time but also save
money.If your family life is a priority have a family meeting
to discuss how much travel is acceptable. Discussthe results with your supervisor.
To avoid travelling on weekends, schedulemeetings only on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, or even late Monday or early Friday.
Tell your boss in advance when you can’t travel. Forexample, anniversaries, birthdays, specialfunctions, etc.
When you’re away take an hour each day foryourself. Relax or do something fun so you don’tfeel that you are working around the clock.
Bring family members along once a while. Turning

something that you continually strivetowards.

or to enjoy deep friendships. Others noteprofessional priorities like contributing tosomething meaningful with their work.
