It's A Game Of Choice


It is a well known fact that our future depends largely on the choices we make in life. Whether it be with regards to our careers, our business or any common thing we do based on the perception of our minds and the zone of comfort we are in and what we wish to achieve, if it would mean stretching ourselves beyond this zone, would all determine the direction our life will take.

In my own personal experience, I have found and realized the importance of time management, how it largely influences our direction in life and by and large in a big way contributes to resultant success or failure in all our Endeavour's.

Endeavour's need not be large projects, but our day to day activities, success or failure of which largely depends on these small choices we make every moment. We are so engrossed in life, that we fail to categorize and prioritize our activities and in the bargain fail to even recognize which of these activities are unproductive and the worst part is, we do it repeatedly, thereby contributing to our failures.

These activities could be anything from finding time to look for a good opportunity or spending time with your family. These activities however small they are, contribute largely to our success or failure in life. I personally consider television serials an evil to society, which keep people engrossed, thereby forgetting their daily tasks and contributing to bad time management. I don't personally consider television as an evil, but better restraint in selecting your programs to revolve around your time instead of the other way round, will be a better way to manage time.

Although, I am not always consciously inclined to believing that TIME=MONEY, I think it is the most practical thing to believe and act on in these times, although time could also be planned for leisure as a reward for your excellence in managing it.

As an experiment, try and consciously analyze your activities on a daily basis for a few days and see the resultant effect it has on your small plans. This will give you a rough estimate on the things that could be achieved if you'd acted differently. Yes you are right, these small achievements contribute to larger achievements, which eventually make you a successful person in all spheres or tasks to take on.

This realization will obviously make you a better person and will also bring you to lime-light, thereby bringing people close to you and then you will win their admiration and confidence.
