Personalities and Time Management
The marketplace is swarming with topics on time management and
few include personality types, which amazes me, since our
personalities play a large role in time management. For example,
we have disabilities, spontaneous, and so-called normal
individuals, so how can one article tell us how to manage our
time? Extensively I studied human behaviors and learned that all
of us are different in more ways than science or researchers can
explain. None of us has all the answers, but some of us can lead
you on a path to time management if the right words fall into
place. In addition, if we have an idea of what type of person we
are, then we are well on our way to finding the solution for
managing time.
Time is complicated, since the bible shows us that one day to
God is a thousand years. Moreover, man has his own ideas of
time. So therefore, when time is used, we must ask ourselves,
"Is it used wisely." We can start by looking at our personality
to determine which plan works better for us in managing time.
Personalities:
>From beginning of time we all were created with our own
personality type, and some of us went astray with the
misguidance of researchers, experts, and so on. The basic rules
were laid out however, when experts, philosophers and
researchers set out to determine what types of persons make up
the world. Taking for example the spontaneous personality type,
we can see it differs from the neatly type. The spontaneous
types often are unorganized, and fail to plan. Spontaneous
individuals have an advantage since the focus on one day at a
time vs. living each day on a schedule.
The disadvantage is that the spontaneous individuals suffer
throughout their life, since a time management plan is not in
view. In order to cultivate a neatly individual, you would need
to work with the personality type, by allowing them to act as
themselves, but manipulating a neatly view in the plan.
Spontaneous individuals require the need to be free and loose.
So therefore there desks are most likely going to be free and
loose: papers flying everywhere. To put a spontaneous individual
in order, is allowing the person to work multi-tasking projects,
which often benefit these types the best. If the person is
multi-tasking, he or she is putting time management in focus.
Still, the focus is there, but the plans are not in action, so
therefore it pays to stay focus of your own individuality to
find out what works best for your personality type. There is no
single plan for these types of individuals that work the best.
The neatly types have very little problem in time management,
yet they have problems in other areas. Some of us may see them
as perfectionist, but in fact, the neatly types are
compensating. Regardless each personality type has its own
individuality and learning your personality is the open door to
a successful time management plan.
