Introduction

Time management is the process of consciously planning and controlling time spent on specific tasks to increase how efficient you are. You may be familiar with setting deadlines, writing to-do lists, and giving yourself small rewards for accomplishing certain activities. It is the practice of planning and controlling how much time is spent on specific activities to be more efficient, effective, and productive. It can apply to work, social life, family, hobbies, and personal interests.

The primary goal of management is to create an environment that lets employees work efficiently and productively. The benefits of good time management include: Greater productivity. Less stress. More opportunities to do the things that matter.

Goal setting therefore, is the process of defining and planning objectives, and creating strategies to
achieve the time management objectives. Goals should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART). Once a goal is achieved, it usually inspires a person to set a higher goal, which improves work performance. When facing a heavy workload, a daily routine can help with organization. When a person develops a daily routine, it helps to balance the amount of time that is dedicated to each task or work project.
