Here's an excerpt from How Can I Get Myself To Do What I Need To Do?

How often have you heard the phrases: “I don’t have time” or “I have to make time?”… I know what you’re thinking, “I just said that today.” We’ve all heard these words so often that we never take the time to listen to what we’re actually saying.

We hear and use these words so frequently that we never question their accuracy. Instead we convince ourselves, without a doubt, of their truth. I want to make a point here and now:

You cannot “make” or “manage” TIME. You can only create and manage personal events.

Webster’s dictionary says, “To manage something is to ‘handle,’ ‘direct’ or ‘alter’ something for a purpose.” You cannot manage time because you cannot handle, direct or alter time for any purpose. You cannot speed up time and you cannot slow time down.

You can only control and manage the events that you personally carry out in the time that already exists.

So, the next time you hear the words, “Time Management,” remember, there is no such thing as “Time Management.”

“Event Management” is the only way to successfully pretend that you are actually managing time.

By the way, organizing your daily events in segments of 15 minutes or less throughout the whole day will give you the perception that you are actually capturing and slowing time down.
