On the other hand, achieving a few simple tasks during the day can provide a sense Of accomplishment, especially when progress is slow in other work. In planning for the day, group similar tasks and accomplish them together. Also, divide and conquer. That is, divide large tasks into smaller, more manageable subtasks. move A permanent change-of-statio- n can be divided into many small tasks that, when performed over, several months, can remove the stress of moving. During the day, commit yourself completely and concentrate on what you're doing. Don't allow yourself to be distracted; if you've set time aside, strive to do what you've planned. On the other hand, don't be discouraged if you don't get everything done in one day. Situations arise, priorities change, and factors beyond your, control can shape your day. Time managment techniques can serve as valuable tools, but they should not dictate our every moment. the day can Attempting to be stressful and counterproductive. Human beings still need the feeling of freedom that comes from leisure hours. Manage your time effectively so that you can have those hours of leisure. by Capt. Mike Webb Offutt AFB, Neb. CTpoday, it seems there's never J time to do what needs to Ujenough be done, let alone what we'd like to do. . Indeed, in this hectic, hurried world time is a precious commodity. An often overlooked key to happiness, health and productivity is our ability to manage this fleeting resource. Taking time to manage time can be a simple process. First things first: Write down all the ; things you have to do and all the things you want to do. Write them down in whatever order they come to mind. Anxiety may rise as the list gets longer. But once complete, the list offers a sense of relief from uncertainty; you. have laid the foundation for a plan. The next step is to organize this list by assigning priorities. Many experts suggest assigning one of three levels of importance to each item; this prioritization is not an exact science, but a tool to help you evaluate your intentions. Having assigned a priority to each item on the list, select some number of the activities for the day. It's probably best to include items from each of the priority levels. Don't try to get all the trivial tasks out This is another in a series of messages from the leaders of Hill AFB units deployed in support of Operation Desert Shield. The messages originally were published and circulated to the troops at Desert Shield sites and are reprinted here. Editor's notes ; . over-mana- ' r-ar- I the aircraft maintenance community, om Lr It was noticeable from day one with our ability to show equipment. That is certainly still true today. That same cooperation has been evident as you pulled together to support details for the good of the wing. Your "can do" attitude has come through time and time again. That same emphasis of teamwork has been evident in our aircraft maintenance unit and operations fighting team. Building schedules on short notice, delays due to weather, and refueling -- all have been absorbed with a desire to complete the mission. As you look at it every day, it certainly is impressive. It certainly must be infectious, because I see the same type of teamwork throughout our wing -- all of us banding together to build sand bags, pull KP, work billeting problems and just get the job done. Everyone seems to have a positive attitude and a desire to do his or her best. Keep it up. It is the secret of success for the wing. Maintenance, again we are up working and getting more capable every day. We are ready to meet the challenge ahead as a part of the best wing team anywhere. Keep up the good work. ge Editor's Note: Captain Webb is a scientific in Command's the Air analyst Strategic Deputy Chief of Staff for Intelligence. , H3 ATTENTION: Mdilhandlor Participant Insurance covers 100 of our fee! 2 .
