In the immortal words of Benjamin Franklin, “time is money.” Spend it wisely.

You Will Need
An online calendar or day planner
A watch

Step 1: Prioritize and record(分清主次)
Schedule only commitments that are important and learn to say no to others. Use one main online calendar or day planner.

Schedule events after rush hour and other off-peak times so traffic doesn’t make you late.

Step 2: Set reminders(做备忘录)
Set email or text reminders at set intervals on your online calendar. Give yourself a reminder one hour before and 15 minutes before an event.

Step 3: Plan to be early(早点出发)
If you have a two o’clock appointment, enter it in your schedule at 1:50.

Have extra work on hand to keep busy if you’re early.

Step 4: Add more time(多留些时间)
Add 25 percent to the time you think you’ll need to get where you’re going or to finish a job.

Step 5: Plan ahead(提前做好准备)
Lay out your clothes, lunch, keys, and anything else you’ll need for the day the night before. If you wake up late, you’ll probably still be on time.

Step 6: Keep gas in your tank and money in your wallet(准备给汽车加好油,给钱包装好钱)
Keep your gas tank above one-quarter full at all times. Always have at least $20 on hand so unplanned expenses don’t hold you up.

Step 7: Wear a watch(戴着手表)
Wear a watch or bring your phone everywhere you go so you’ll always know the time.

Did you know? There are 17 million meetings in America on an average day.
