I trying to earn some extra cash online for a long but no hope for me, Internet marketing seems to be so hard and reaching targeted buyers are the most challenging part of it. It would be nice if you write some article about how to earn some extra cash online without invest much money on it.
Hi Joy,
Sometimes it becomes a lot difficult to manage time, but you have come with an amazing post. I really needed this kind of post for better management.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the great suggestions in time management. I’m trying to create a schedule and stick to it but being a caregiver, that doesn’t always happen. So I do a lot of work-arounds in getting things done.
I am enjoying reading your time management series. Have a great weekend.
I completely understand your problems sticking to a schedule when you’re a carer. We had some rough months with my poor Mum and obviously everything else took second place.
Living so far away from my Mum and Dad we had support with them that protected me from many of the problems, but I know you’re right there in the front-line. I really admire what you’re doing and you’ll never have anything to reproach yourself with.
Hi Joy Healey, Time is precious everyone should know about time management. Wasting time never come back as it gone is gone forever. People who give importance to time they always success in life. Thanks for sharing this great post
Given that we all have the same 24hrs in a day, how we manage those hours must be very important in differentiating the successful people from the unsuccessful.
I am one of the most unorganized people you will ever meet and it does affect me greatly. Some days I feel so busy even though I am not. I make it harder for myself. This article was just for me. I started making sticky notes, but I have slacked off a bit, but you have motivated me to start again.
There is never enough information to read about time management for me. You have given great tips here. My favorite is out-sourcing. It can be hiring a gardener to alleviate me for more time to spend on my business. Or one of my favorites…Fiverr…to do many of my images.
When I first started, I did hire a handy-man. He did all sorts of things around the house. It saved me many hours of time….raking leaves, painting something…you know…the house things.
I do try to bundle my online chores. Answering comments on my blog for two hours, then answering emails and so on. I find that I get into the ‘groove’ better that way.
Glad you like the time management series – because there’s still more to come LOL.
It’s funny, originally I felt guilty about having my gardener and cleaner, as if I were being uppity somehow. Then I decided that part of the reason for working so hard was to be able to afford such luxuries. I’m not a good gardener or cleaner, so it’s actually more efficient.
The next step I have to psyche myself up for is out-sourcing some of my online work. While some previous work out-sourcing ventures have been successful, most have not met with my approval. I suppose it’s working through a list of contacts to find those you trust.
Love this article, end of the day the most important is all in Time, most people don’t realise it until they lost, but it always great to start now. Thanks for this great post, it would definitely help people to change the way they’re consuming their time.
Some excellent time management tips. Time management is very important because when you start working more productively within the time frame you set, you earn more profit. Saving every minute can be very beneficial at times.
I liked the idea about going to a grocery shop that has nearby ATM rather than going to some other ATM first to get money, and then visit the shop.
I had a frustrating experience yesterday – I went out to the shop to buy four greetings cards, all at once. Then as soon as I got home I spotted on my calendar that I had missed someone’s birthday on Monday. So I had to go out again. If only I had checked first, I would have saved time.
And how did that impact on my income? Well, I could have been doing something more useful towards my business instead of repeating a job I’d already done 🙁
This is a great article – it’s good to think about time management for your whole life, and not just your business. I think many people think that outsourcing is not for them because they think it’s too expensive. But you really can get some good results done quite cheaply on sites like Fiverr.
On my computer, I like to use Sticky Notes for things I need to look at regularly, and for keeping motivational quotes. I also use Wunderlist for to-do lists, but my favourite tool is Evernote, which is great for storing and cataloguing almost anything you can think of.
One other thing I would mention is that “multitasking” has been proven to be counter-productive. So it’s best to assign time to doing (and completing) one specific task before going on to the next one.
I am experimenting with out-sourcing this month because there are just so many things I want to accomplish that I’m spinning my wheels. Which of course ties in with your excellent observations about multi-tasking. Yes, I must try and focus even more on one task at a time.
I like Sticky Notes and find it very helpful. EverNote is highly spoken of, but somehow I managed to get a store full of “stuff” but never did much accessing. However it’s so well spoken of that I’m sure the problem was mine! I hadn’t come across Wunderlist, so thanks for suggesting it.

Hi Eyasir,
Sounds as if – like I was – you are in need of some proper training! Don’t worry, it won’t cost you much money. I recommend my article https://joyhealey.siterubix.com/low-risk-businesses-to-start-from-home/ and look at the section on Affiliate Club.
Good luck, and do let me know how you get on, Joy

Hi Robin,
Thanks – I hope that some of the time management tips I shared will help improve income for both of us. It’s easier said than done!

Hi Sazia,
You’re right – time lost can never be recovered.
Given that we all have the same 24hrs in a day, how we manage those hours must be very important in differentiating the successful people from the unsuccessful.

Hi Fritz,
Welcome to my blog, I am so pleased you found me and I hope you will find plenty of helpful information here:-)
I’ll confess that part of the reason for writing this series has been to improve my own time management and organization 🙂
I use the sticky notes tool on my PC, and I also find Google Calendar a life-saver.
Hope your (and my) organization skills improve.

Hi Louis,
Yes, it’s very easy to waste time without realising it. You have to make a conscious decision – and the sooner the better.

Hi Atish,
Good weekend so far – hope yours is too.
I had a frustrating experience yesterday – I went out to the shop to buy four greetings cards, all at once. Then as soon as I got home I spotted on my calendar that I had missed someone’s birthday on Monday. So I had to go out again. If only I had checked first, I would have saved time.
