Sometimes you don’t get a full 8 hours work in a day, especially if your kids are young, so you need to maximise the productivity of the hours you do get.
Luckily, many people find they’re more productive at home than in the office due to fewer interruptions, but you’ll still need to maximise the productivity of every hour.
I think the biggest work time wasters are: surfing the Internet, gossiping via messenger or email, and the use of social media. If you limit these activities to your break-time, you will find that your working day is much more productive.
I also think that checking the news at every opportunity is counter-productive. It takes up time, and is often depressing or worrying and so can affect your mood for the rest of the day!
This is a great post for all women. While I don’t have kids, I can see how time management can be so important. But with or without kids, we can all learn about how to best manage our time. Great post Clare.
Thanks Dee!
