The elements essential for time management should include everyday tasks such as travelling as well as work and leisure. Failure to add mundane activities into a time management plan will result in failure or unsuccesful management of time. Assigning a specific time for each activity helps with planning and organizing skills. By doing this you will be able to prioritize important and urgent tasks.
