How can you make extra time?

You may have noticed that people of great responsibility are often unhurried, well rested, and have time available. They also often appear relaxed and balanced and therefore have room to listen and give attention without running after themselves or anything else. That's because they make time. And if people who run a large multinational, a broadcaster or even a country can do that, then that is not impossible for you either. Follow their example, but especially the techniques below and you will find that you too can adjust the clock to your will. 

The 7 best time saving techniques: 

1. The one hour method.

Note, here's a really important one: with this method, you can make sure you get an extra month and a half in a year. From this moment on, your calendar year can last 13.5 months! How? Get up an hour earlier. On an annual basis, this yields 45 days of 8 hours in which you can work or do fun things. anderhalve maand extra in een jaar krijgt. Vanaf dit moment kan je kalenderjaar 13,5 maand duren! Hoe? Sta een uur vroeger op. Dat levert op jaarbasis 45 dagen van 8 uur op waarin je kunt werken of leuke dingen doen. 

2. The order mechanism.

Be neat. Create order. Everything is easier to find, if organised. Again, you win days on an annual basis if you don't have to search all the time.

3. The stop time trick.

Do a lot, do it organized, but not constantly. Schedule and take breaks. People who take breaks work much more efficiently and enjoyable. The only advantage of smoking is that you regularly walk away from your desk. Do it too, but without the cigarette. A ten minute break every two hours is the ideal ratio. 

4. The response policy.

Answer your correspondence, but not immediately. Email is a great tool, but master it and don't let it control you. Check it no more than twice a day. Please make sure to reply within 24 hours, or at least say when you will reply. 

5. The 1 to 10 method.

Before you make up your mind, wait. Count to ten. Certainly do not make a decision under the influence of emotion, all kinds of narcotics, stimulants or fatigue. 

6. The shutdown technique.

Turn off or turn off what distracts. The television, the telephone, your e-mail program, your child. 

7. The freezing method.

When cooking, try to prepare meals as if there were more of you. The operations are the same, but it provides extra servings that you put in the freezer and take out when you need a quick and healthy meal.
