Prologue
- Introduction -
Hello, this is Tochamin.
I usually read for about 30 minutes a day.
In doing so,I have condensed the things that left an impression on me and the insights I learned
into tips for living!
I hope they are useful for your daily life too♪
This time,
it is about time management
that is conscious of priorities!
* Please also take a look at this article regarding the reasons for continuing to read and what I learn (^^)!!
Chapter.1

Chapter.2
- Prioritizing Top Priorities -
To bring effectiveness to your own management,
you must utilize your will.
Will is the ability to act according to what you have decided and chosen yourself,
without being influenced by others or surrounding circumstances.
Through every daily decision and act of will,
the ability to manage yourself
gradually develops.
Among these, effective management is
prioritizing top priorities.
By prioritizing what should be cherished in your daily life,
you discipline yourself and
act according to correct principles, your own values, and your most important goals.
People who can effectively manage themselves
are not swayed by emotions, impulses, or moods,
but possess the will and integrity
to prioritize their own values!
Chapter.3
- Spending Time in Quadrant II -
In time management, the factors that determine human activity are
urgencyandimportance.Dividing this into four quadrants
results in the following.
✅️ Quadrant I
[Urgent and Important]
Activity examples)
- Responding to crises
- Work with deadlines
✅️ Quadrant II
[Not urgent and Important]
Activity examples)
- Building relationships
- Preparation and planning
✅️ Quadrant III
[Urgent and Not important]
Activity examples)
- Drop-in tasks
- Meaningless social engagements
✅️ Quadrant IV
[Not urgent and Not important]
Activity examples)
- Trivial tasks
- Killing time
Among these, if you only focus on Quadrant I (activities that are urgent and
lead to significant consequences),
you will be dominated by the feeling
of always being chased by deadlines.
Also, people who spend their time only
in Quadrant III and Quadrant IV (unimportant activities)
avoid activities that lead to results,
and are living a fundamentally irresponsible life.
Effective people
spend as much time as possible on Quadrant II (activities that are not urgent but
important),
reducing the proportion of their life
occupied by Quadrant I.
By spending time on activities that greatly expand your capabilities,you achieve a P/PC balance!
Epilogue
- Summary of this time -
Through my reading today,
I learned about time management
that is conscious of priorities!
How do you spend your days?
To effectively manage your life,
prioritizing top prioritiesis important.
Do not be swayed by emotions or moods,
but possess the will and integrity
to act according to your own values.
Doesn't that sound like it would lead
to self-growth?
And the idea of dividing time into two categories: urgency and importance.
Which area do you
spend the most time on?
If you are always chased by
urgent and important matters (Quadrant I),
you will always feel like you are
racing against deadlines.
However, effective people
spend their time on things that are
not urgent but important (Quadrant II),
in other words, building relationships and preparation.
Doesn't it sound exciting
that by doing so, your abilities will grow significantlyand your life will become richer?✨
If you are
"busy every day and anxious about the future..."
"I want to make better use of my time!"
If you feel that way,
why not try reviewing your daily routine
with this top-priority time management technique in mind?
