Some simple tricks for finding time for yourself:

1. De-clutter your schedule

• Look at your timesheet for time wasters
• Analyze timesheet to find tasks you spend most of your time with least results/ satisfaction
• Try and be more efficient in selected activities
• Drop / reduce time for few activities which may not make serious sense

2. Learn to delegate

• Identify & delegate to others tasks which they can do better, not important to you or need early completion
• Coach/ train/ mentor people to handle tasks which you may want to delegate

3. Learn to say ‘no’

• Typical tasks which you may want to say NO to could be: Tasks not adding to your Goals/ KRA, Paucity of time/ preoccupation, You do not have the skills/ confidence to do, Not interested/ motivated to do the task
