TIME MANAGEMENT

Introduction

There are only so many hours in a day. We may prolong these hours outside of our work time, but there could never be more hours in any one day.  Thus, the unending challenge of managing our time in the most effective way.  This is always relative to the ability to make decisions and choices and act in accordance with them.  It is the ability to act rather than be acted upon, to proactively carry out the programme or priorities that we have set for ourselves.
