The Secret To Good Time Management

“How did it get so late so soon? Its night before its afternoon. December is here before its June. My goodness, how the time has flown. How did it get so late so soon?” – Dr. Seuss.

The passage of time goes unnoticed most of the, well, time. Yet once we realize its transient nature, there is no hiding from this bitter realization – time flies by and does it too quickly for comfort. Because for us, humans, time is the only absolutely unredeemable asset. Yet it keeps pouring through our hands like water leaving us with the thought of how much time was lost – on what, exactly?!

The modern life presents us with hundreds if not thousands of opportunities to lose time. Each task or a thought bites its little chunk off our time. So if you want to do more in less time – effective time management will be the key.

Modern technologies did wonders to help us with that, tracking amount of time we spend on each particular task, making our hectic and busy living more organized, orderly and thus simpler and easier for us.

However, even though the purpose of all these numerous applications and gadgets is to save us time, they make us spending more – just accessing and using them. Just try to note how long it takes to use an app or a gadget. With a phone app it goes like this: reach for the phone, unlock, start the app, do your thing by typing a command or a note, close the app, switch off the phone and put it back where it was. Sounds pretty fast and nothing to worry about, doesn’t it? Now multiply it by the number of times you repeat the procedure during the day, it starts to look rather worrisome.

Yet once you do it with MYLE, using our most natural way of data input – our voice – the whole routine is cut to 5 seconds. Tap, say the note and get back to what you were doing, allowing MYLE to complete all tasks in the background – automatically. Additional boon is that all can be done with a minimal distraction from your main activity, be it work or play.

1. Time, spent two hours on emails, 30 minutes talking with the boss, 10 minutes on coffee break.
2. Schedule, meeting with Jim, this Friday 10 am, remind 10 minutes prior.
3. Shop list. Buy milk today on way home.

MYLE will automatically save your note as an audio file, convert it into text file and push it to an appropriate app based on the key words that you teach MYLE to know. The built-in activity-tracking feature will analyze your active time and how you spend it using its powerful algorithms to make the personalized suggestions based on your past records.

It will learn your behavior and adjust the predictive analytics to tell you what you could do to maximize your productivity and efficiency. And it will not bite any time off your busy day to achieve all that.

Use Technology to Spend Less Time Working

Everyone has been in this situation; you look at the watch without a clue as how could the time pass so quickly.

It would seem that you’ve recently arrived at your job desk and about to start working, however, it’s already 5 p.m., and you’re not even done half of your tasks.

You’re thinking, “where is that lost time? What could be the reason for such a poor productivity?”

The reason could be hundreds of the emails you were supposed to reply on from your laptop; or dozens of messages from your financial department that your cell phone was receiving; or notifications and phone calls from the CEO and clients that you’ve forgotten to schedule a meeting with all of them.

Meanwhile, you’ve got a brilliant million dollar idea on how to make a winning marketing campaign, but it happened so that this routine caused you to forget your fabulous idea.

These tasks of constantly switching from your laptop to cell phone to communicate with different departments simultaneously writing down your ideas and notes, are driving your attention and productivity away leaving you in a situation of total madness and uncontrolled processes.

However, your tasks are not over yet, because you have a report that’s due tomorrow morning for the meeting with a CEO. Then you start realizing that 5 minutes required to finish your routine tasks, apparently have taken the entire day. You forget about your leisure time and staying up until midnight at your office desk.

It’s a reality of the modern person. We’re all stuck in this routines funnel where escape is only possible through the use of contemporary technologies.

“When you kill time, remember that it has no resurrection.”
― A.W. Tozer

It’s true that we cannot redeem the time and opportunities we wasted on useless things. Remember, perhaps you thought about it at least once, “Only if I had had more time, then I would’ve changed everything to better.”

We tend to spend senselessly our time doing what we make ourselves believe in – doing important things – when in reality we are disconnecting from our lives.

Today’s reality – we have the full spectrum of opportunities to influence the time with a maximum outcome.

Technologies are called to save our time.

Today’s market has produced thousands of devices and apps that aim to make people’s lives simpler through automating their daily communication and other processes.

Look, for instance, at Slack, their slogan is to simplify the working lives by making them more pleasant and productive. Slack eases the entire communication process within large teams in the most time efficient way. However, Slack is one of the thousands of different tools that strive to simplify people’s lives.
