Stop blaming time
It doesn't pay to be a time martyr, so break your habit of blaming time. (What did time ever do to you?)
Avoid saying things like, "I don't have the time." Or, "I ran out of time."
Or the worst… "I'm so busy." (Fess up: You roll your eyes when hearing others say that.)
Everyone's busy.
Nothing you say will change the fact that there are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour…and 90 days in a quarter!

Being busy isn't the same as being productive
You may think you're being productive churning through items on your ToDo list, but if that time spent is not aligned against goals, you'll always feel you're losing the time game.
Today, and every day hereafter, focus on these TM principles:
1. Align calendar time against your goals.
2. Chart where you spend your time…and learn from it.
3. Build a disciplined scheduling system…and say "no" willingly.

Forget trying to master time, just spend your day on your goals.
