Step One: From Theory to Practice
First of all the specialist who has just started his career has to be extremely careful, he must keep all the necessary information he receives at his new working place. What did we all lack at the universities? Certainly we lacked practice. The high degree of academic education suggests a great amount of knowledge, that are often separated from the object of investigation, that is why a young specialist always lacks practice. He knows theory, but he doesn’t know how to apply it in practice. That’s why the first job must provide the employer with practical information, which together with theoretical information prepares a real professional in his work.
Firstly, it is important to have a diary, where you will record all the information that will seem useful and interesting to you. It is desirable to record all your assignments and tasks in it and plan your day according to the diary. It is very important to record the purpose, even though we see it on paper, the achievement of which will seem possible and feasible.
Thus, the first step in making an order in one’s working schedule is to buy an electronically notebook. Adjust them for yourself in order it would be convenient and comfortable to use them. Write down all the important aims and objectives taking into account the peculiarities of time management that will be disclosed below.
Step two: Finding the purpose
Thus you bought the diary, and began writing down in all the things and useful information, but a few days later you discover that you can’t find the most important tasks as it is completely filled with small, ongoing and not always so important tasks. Consequently the question arises what you should have to do.
During the working day you manage a great amount of tasks, assignments not thinking how important they are. Why waste time and energy that are of no practical use? That’s why the following advice is actual: try to independently carry out all the goals set by the head of the office. Of course, taking on you such a great amount of work you may wallow in small details that later on will prevent from achieving the goal. What should you do in order to prevent this happen? The second principle of time management planning will answer this question.
