#13: Research by Zippia Reveals That 82% of Individuals Lack an Effective System for Managing Their Time

Feeling overwhelmed? Unsure how to tackle your to-do list? Sounds like you're one of those 82%. Luckily for you, we have the perfect whitepaper to help you overcome these issues.

Using this whitepaper you can become less overwhelmed, be more proactive, and finish what you start. If you’re looking to read this whitepaper then two things are true; you’ll have browsed the web for ideas, read books, posts, & articles, or watched videos on time management. All with a desire to get more organised, be less stressed, and get more done. In short, be a better Time Manager. And yet you are still searching for that special something that will make a significant positive difference to your time management.

I Don't Have Time to Make Time

People want to learn how to be more efficient and more effective with their time but they don’t have the time to!

Of course, this is ironic. A little like wanting to be better cooks. We buy the cooking books, download the recipes, and watch the chefs on TV, but when it comes to it, after a long day, we choose to heat something up, rather than cook from scratch. The only difference is that whilst home-cooked food is lovely, effective time management opens so many more doors.

The key to improving your time management is about making that critical choice early. This is the key decision. Not what do we want to change in our time management system, but how much we are prepared to go out of our own way, change, unlearn some stuff, and learn some new stuff. Each one of the 4 Learners below made their decision.

4 Different Learners

In our experience, people become one of 4 learners when they learn time management. Their choice is based on a subconscious decision they made a long time before they started the training course.

1. Learner A: ‘I’m just too busy for all of this’ - Those who believe that they don't have the time.
2. Learner B: ‘I’m doing most of this anyway’ - Those that are already doing all that.
3. Learner C: ‘I can do all of this, I know I can’ - Those that want to grab it all now.
4. Learner D: ‘I can do this; Slowly and Steady’ - Those that build their own system.

Don’t Be Jealous of Dave Allen, Brian Tracy, Tim Ferriss, or the Other Time Management Gurus

Their personal time management systems wouldn’t work for you. You have to create your own system. Of course, there are tips, parts that you could use, and bits you could add on. For right now your system is YOUR system and like your cooking skills, your ability to play cards, or how well you network, you cannot just grab someone else’s way. You need to build your system, your way.

If you complete all 7 exercises towards the second half of this whitepaper, over the next 7 weeks, you will become less overwhelmed, be more proactive, and be able to finish what you start. Also, you will be in the top 10% of effective time managers. Watch our 7 Week Time Management Challenge video to learn more.
