This week, ending 10/10/2015, we are sharing some time management tips and good time saving techniques for artists. More information can be found at www.activia.co.uk

This is the final entry to our Friday’s Time Management: Part 1 post. If you missed it, check it out and compare yourself to the 5 management personality types and common time management mistakes. There are even some time management tips that can help in becoming more efficient with your daily work routine. Being on top of management is not only beneficial for businesses but for all those who work within it, checking out companies like Bamboo Solutions can offer project management software for those that need more structure.

Coming up with solutions for managing time can be daunting, and sometimes even become one of the things that make us waste more time during the day. Places like Development Academy can help build personal skills, which involves time management, hopefully enabling you to succeed in your daily tasks. If you do not have a lot of time to sort this issue out then luckily there are a few different software that you can use to make your time management a lot easier. For even better news though, you’ll be pleased to know that Newswire announces another partnership with Profit.co and DigitalWinners meaning that you will get the most out of different time management software (such as OKR software)! Of course, time management is a skill itself, and it can be hard to make sure you stay on top of things. Maybe we are just trying to iron out a few things during the day. In the search for time management mastery, maybe we have accomplished daily exercise, eating a healthier diet, and keeping up with important tasks. Maybe, we just need to find an app or software to help us figure out what we spend our time doing most of the day. Today, we will focus on time management solutions to ease the daily workload.


Tracking Daily Activities:

Mind42 (mind mapping tool)

RescueTime (alerts when you spend too much time on certain things, blocks distracting websites, highlights accomplished daily tasks, tracks time expenditure, etc)

Toggl (time tracking app)

Managing Tasks:

Evernote (take notes, save information, make lists, create voice reminders

MyLifeOrganized (generates to-do-lists, organizes daily tasks, tracks daily tasks)

Remember the Milk (manage tasks, receive alerts, use with Google Calendar)

Zendone (integrates with Evernote and Google Calendar, task management app)

These are only a few tools to hep anyone become more efficient with time. Nowadays, everyone has a mobile device or computer with integrated calendars that sync to our daily routines. With proper training, these tools can help us visualize our time management skills, tasks, and activities. Try some of these out and see how you do over the next few weeks.
