And if saying that to you makes your suddenly realize, "oh my god he's right, what am I doing? "I hate this job". If you disagree totally with them then you're probably in the wrong job, just a thought. By the way, I would hope that there is some correlation between what you think is important and what your boss or your company thinks is important. But really underneath it all, it's about deciding what you think is important and then making sure that at least a little bit of each day gets spent on that. And yes you need to juggle the urgent things and keep your boss happy. Yes you need a job to do this in order to juggle all the small stuff without forgetting anything. And that's what time management is about, fundamentally. So the game is to think about what's important and then find ways to spend more time on those important things. So the one point of being efficient is to use up less time on the unimportant things so that we have more time for the important things. And therefore the objective of time management is to maximize the time spent on important things. But given that time is finite, why organise it better? What extra things would you do if you had more time? Well I think the answer to this is that it's the important things that we'd like more time for. Certainly we'd all like more time so that we could get more done. Why bother to be good at managing your time? What's the point of being more efficient.
