4 :: Does Yes Really Mean Yes?
By saying 'yes' they will have to say 'no' to something that is important for their own happiness. Each time they give they may be cross with themselves for doing this and continuing this will create lowered self esteem, lack of confidence and even resentment.
5 :: How to Plan Instead of Procrastinate?
Identify what it is. The first thing is to identify the who, what, when, where, and how of the project.
Get it out of your head. Begin to write it down in a notebook or electronic file so you can get it out of your head. Your conscious mind is best used for focusing not for storage as David Allen will tell you.
Chunk it down. This is another way of looking at the who, what, when, where, and how. Don't let the monster take over. There are ways to break down any project into doable parts. Start to put your ideas into categories.
Prioritize. Keep asking yourself what is most important in the project and adjust things as you go.
Assign enough time. Often people don't allow enough time to complete a task. The rule of thumb is to add 50% more time than you think it will take. So if you think it will take an hour for a task, plan on an hour and a half.
Delegate. And, last but not least, delegate tasks to other people. There is always more that can done by someone else than you think. Take a moment to identify tasks and people who can help.

6 :: How You Can Succeed With the Enormous Benefit of Time Management?
Exercising time management requires--you guessed it--time. It appears a touch of an absurdity, doesn't it? To develop effective time allocation ability, you need to take more time out of your busy day that already contains more jobs than you have some time to do.
But the investment of time used to plan your time will create more time open to you in the future. So if you are already beaten down by your to do list, and you end up making excuses not to do what you know must be done, then you want some incentive. You'll be able to find that inducement in the Huge Benefit of resource management.

8 :: How You Can Get More Done in Less Time?
4 Key tips to help you with time management.
* The first thing you want to do is sit down and write out a list of all of your required responsibilities for the week so you know what you need to be doing. The things that you absolutely need to get done over the week. Things like daily chores around the house. Your family , work responsibilities ect... Then prioritize them in the order of importance.
* Next You need to know what you are currently spending your time on. You need to get yourself a daily planner and for one week write down everyday what you did and how much time it took to do it. I mean everything that you do. How long for cooking meals, time on the computer, tv, phone. How long it takes to get ready for work, traveling to work or school etc.... You want to study what you did for the week and how much time it took for each activity. Then anything that is not of immediate importance to your list you either stop doing that activity or greatly cut back on the time you spend on it. Things like time on the phone, computer, watching television.
* Now to get more done in less time you will start off your day working only on those items on your list and nothing else until those tasks are completed.
* The real key also is to not let any thing distract you and get you off track of your work. Example of this would be do not answer the phone either unplug the phone or let the answering machine take a message. Do not answer the door or if you do let who ever is at the door know that you are busy and this is not a good time. If you have a favorite show that is on early in the day when you need to be working on your responsibilities then tape it so that you can watch it later.
