Tips to Be an Expert at Managing Your Time
Do you have too much to do and too little time?Of course!Actually it's the biggest problem facing most people today.The key to becoming more efficient（高效的）is the ability to set priorities（优先顺序）and focus on one task at a time.1.
Learn from the experts.
If you want to be a big success in any area,find out what other successful people in that area are doing.2.And do the same things until you get the same results.
Be open to new ideas.
The most foolish person of all is either the person who feels he has no time to learn about time management or, the person,who feels that he already knows all that's needed to know on the subject.3.
Develop a plan.
Successful men and women are both effective and efficient（高效的）.4.Develop a plan,then decide what is the most important thing to do and how to do it.
5.
Start with your top tasks.Focusing on your highest-value tasks is the starting point of getting your time under control.Although small things are easier and are often more fun than the big,important things.
A.Focus on the key tasks.
B.Start from small things.
C.They do the right things in the right way.
D.But never forget to learn from their failures.
E.However,the truth is that we have much to learn.
F.Study the interviews,speeches,biographies of them.
G.Here are several ways to get organized and get started.
I was headed out the door the other day with my two sons.We were going to drive to the local grocery store to pick up a few odds and ends that we had run out of during the week.I shut the door quickly because my dogs were already barking at being left behind in the house.We headed down the hill but when I reached into my pocket for the car keys,they weren't there.Shaking my head,I walked back up the hill and saw my keys still dangling from the hook（挂钩）where I always hang them.
This,of course,isn't the only time I have forgotten something recently.In fact,it seems to be happening more and more.There isn't a week that goes by that I don't forget something and then remember it later in the day or misplace something and have to go looking for it.The medical professionals all reassure（使……安心）me that this is a normal part of getting older.They say not to worry about it and to take it with a smile.I am doing my best to do so.
I think I will be alright with my forgetful mind too as long as I can keep remembering the important things in life.I don't mind misplacing my keys as long as I can remember that God loves me.I don't mind forgetting what I came into a room for as long as I can remember what I am in this life for.I don't mind being a bit absent-minded as long as I am being loving-hearted.
May you always remember the important things in life: You were created in love.You were created to love.You are called to kindness and made for joy.You can make a difference in this world with every choice you make.
