frame.
For Effective Time Management one needs to be:

Organized - Avoid keeping stacks of file and heaps of paper at your


workstation. Throw what all you don’t need. Put important documents
in folders. Keep the files in their respective drawers with labels on top
of each file. It saves time which goes on unnecessary searching.
Don’t misuse time - Do not kill time by loitering or gossiping around.
Concentrate on your work and finish assignments on time. Remember
your organization is not paying you for playing games on computer or
peeping into other’s cubicles. First complete your work and then do
whatever you feel like doing. Don’t wait till the last moment.
Be Focussed - One needs to be focused for effective time
management.
Develop the habit of using planners, organizers, table top calendars for
better time management. Set reminders on phones or your personal
computers.
