The Myth of Time Management

How often have you fallen into the trap of making time tables, setting up a routine and trying hard to meet up to the timelines?

Am sure at least as a student... at least for once you made a time table for studies or for your daily routine and tried to meet your expectations. How successful was the attempt? Did life become easy? Did it work out in your favor? Was the schedule too robotic, too monotonous to follow... maybe even too boring? Or were things which were out of your control always altering your time-table?

Time Management... really? Can you really manage time?

Time... its eternal, it just goes on and on... in its own fashion!!! You can't manage time... it will happen with or without you taking any action. It is a flow... endless. You don't know what's next... you don't know the next second... you don't know the future!

No one can add more seconds, minutes, hours, days to whatever time it is... All anyone can try is utilize each moment they are living. How can anyone manage time itself?

All you can is - manage yourself, the direction of your thoughts and your actions.

Self-awareness, Self-management?and Self-control are the real concepts to master. What you are doing in this moment is the most important thing that you will ever be doing. Read that again... because your life can change this moment.

Your life is just about yourself and the moment you are in... nothing else is in your control... and definitely not TIME.

Some questions to ponder upon -

Do we need to stop wasting time on Time Management and start managing ourselves?

Is Self-Management the real concept that needs attention?

Is what we are doing taking us further in the direction we want to go?

Do we even know where we are headed to?

What if our goal was clear and the path determined... would that make life meaningful?

Can a life coach, a change agent... a Catalyst... be of help?
