What if there were time-tested methods that could help us truly maximize our time? According to Karen Leland, President of Sterling Consulting and Marketing Group, it’s possible to get the most out of the day as long as we’re willing to make some simple changes. Author of her new book, No Nonsense: Time Management: 50 Tips to Hack Your Time and Get Everything Done, Karen gives podcast listeners the scoop on time management techniques that will truly make a difference.

Takeaways:

• Most of us aren’t conscious of the many ways in which we waste our time, and we don’t see the consequences either.
• One way to realize better time-management is to take stock of where your time is spent; keeping track and labeling your activities will show you where your priorities are.
• Working toward a goal isn’t always “sexy” work; sometimes it means committing to completing mundane tasks until you see progress.
• Narrow your to-do list down to two achievable priority items so that you don’t end up overwhelmed by a list of unattainable tasks.
