It may,however, be an automated voice telling you that you may be eligible for compensation for having been mis-sold insurance. That‟s not important.Going to the dentist regularly is：important (or so we‟re told).✧If you don‟t, you may get gum disease, or other problems. But it‟s not urgent. If you leave ittoo long, however, it may become urgent, because you may get toothache.✧Picking your children up from school is：both urgent and important✧If you are not there at the right time, they will be waiting in the playground or the classroom,worrying about where you are.✧Checking funny emails or reading Wechat is：neither urgent nor important✧So why is it the first thing that you do each day? Try to minimise distractions to help yourecognise and avoid other things that may distract you from getting your urgent and important tasks done.Group discussionNow list down the tasks that you need to accomplish, and then determine the tasks from the top priority A-level tasks down to the D or E level tasks.**34枚金币时间管理Strategy C:Make schedules:Relate the day‟s activities to the goals.Assign priorities to the day‟s tasks according to their contribution to your overall goals.Stay on track, using the plan to guide you through interruptions.Strategy D:Learn to say “no”Why?You can‟t do everythingDon‟t undertake things you can‟t completeRemain consistent to your goalsFirst 5 questions you can ask yourself (Why ask?)Am I already working on several important assignments that leave me no time for this one?Can I delegate some of my other work to make room for this assignment?Will taking on this assignment cause harm to my other work?Do I absolutely lack the skills necessary to complete this assignment?Am I the only person who can successfully complete this assignment?What do you think of the following Reasons to Say No ?The project looks too difficult.
