This happens to so many, with what seems like so little time in a day and with so many task to complete.
There would have to be 2 major reasons why you are running out of day before you are running out of activities and things to do.
1. I would hope not but you might just be over committing yourself to take on too much work, or perhaps be in too many places at once. This would be a problem and I will briefly outline in this article what you can do for this situation.
2. You do not have a daily hourly tracker. If you wake up in the mourning head on down to the office or workplace and dive right into your daily to do's with out a proper schedule or hourly progress chart system that is controlling your hours and time that is passing by can lead to a 8-10 hour day rushing by in what seems like minutes and leaving you feeling stressed and feeling like you ended up with more work then you started with.
So now that we have addressed the two most major causes of running out of day with activities that still need to be finished we can now look further on what you can do to help.
Step one- SLOW DOWN! Most times people get overwhelmed with work or task they have to do and literally get stuck, frozen. It has happened to me before in my early days I once sat at my desk for 5 hours fumbled around, stressed out, found other things to do that were not of importance. So, slow down write out your daily task and measure them down into hourly projects. Once you do this you will see a moderate change in the way time is passing by, but even more then the time you will see that instead of 5 hours passing by with nothing 5 hours will pass by with a heap of work that is out of the way that never would have been started let alone finished.
Step two- one thing you can also do is take up a relaxation breathing remedy. This can prove to release stress and free your inner mind of all worries. Take 5 minutes away from your work sit back in your chair and practice a deep breathing session. Inhale till you feel your lungs fill and release slowly do this for a period of 5-10 minutes and notice the difference in feeling. Make sure you take this into account and log in how log into your daily agenda you worked on your breathing exercises. This will help in measuring your hourly progress and not letting the day slip away
Step three- stay focused, its hard if you run or operate your own business to stay focus however, with the use of a daily hourly planner to track and update your hourly progress and taking your time to slow down and actually place your mind to your task and practice a deep breathing session can all prove to be the world of help to slow down your day and be more efficient.
By placing these specific strategies into your schedule you can help to slow down your day and work to be more successful at finishing activities.
Stephan Stavrakis the owner of "3D Thinking & Training Ltd"., has built a 6-figure coaching/training business from scratch with no credibility and no list and he states that success started happening when he made a decision to actually charge what he is truly worth. He says that 95% of trainers/coaches old and new are charging way below than the value they give.
