Check out these time management tools:
- To Do Lists–Most people use Outlook for email, calendars and contacts, but that last leg of the stool is called ‘Tasks’. It is a very easy to use place to keep, prioritize and manage an ever changing to-do list. You can attach priorities to tasks and sync them with your calendar if you like. Google Tasks, does virtually the same thing, allowing you to manage tasks in the office or on the go.
- Goal Setting & Tracking–There are a number of apps you can use to set and track goals. Most allow you to set goals for the upcoming week, month or longer periods across a host of areas such as family, personal growth, financial, health, social, hobbies and career. You might try GoalsOnTrack.com or the apps: GoalTracker by Mobillion or ReachYourGoals by Appshive.
- Managing Priorities–Deciding what to do across the Urgency/Importance matrix is never easy and to be successful at this, one must make management decisions daily and not rely on a tech tool, but if you want to try one that aligns with this grid, try Priority Matrix by Appfluence LLC.
