41. Don’t let others steal your time ! Do you know people who want to talk all the time, just for the sake of it; people who just want to be around for no reason and prevent you doing things you want to do ? Nice as you may be, there is only one solution because your priorities have to come first ! Don’t let them waste your time if you are getting nothing positive from it. If they are wasting your time, avoid them like the plague, either totally, or at periods when you cannot afford to waste time. For some, full time avoidance is the only answer. Let them waste their time if they wish, don’t let them waste yours. How you give them the message will depend on your personality, but you have to for your sake.

Conclusion There's a time for love and romance for jubilation, and for sorrow Time to relax, and a time to catch up with the running moments What is important is to be in control of time No matter how pressured or tight any situation might be To be on time for everything, under the natural conditions of things, on a normal flow of moments Don’t have paper mountains ! Blow up the electronics !

Time management, like any other skill, is not hard to develop Don't look upon this training unit as a one-shot deal Look at it as only the first step Second step should be taken immediately before you toss the materials aside Schedule time in your planner Time should be kept not as an enemy, but as a companion towards your destined paths
