Abstract
Time is your most valuable resource. Managed poorly, “lack of time” will be a source of frustration, stress, self-doubt, and reduced productivity. Managed well, “extra time” will result in a productive career, possible leadership roles, and the ability to engage in things you enjoy outside of work. Becoming better at managing time, just like any behavioral change, requires effort and persistence. Using a behavioral change framework, this chapter gives you a roadmap to becoming more effective and efficient with your use of time.
