Management in business is a term used to describe the techniques and expertise of efficient organization, planning, direction and control of the operations of a business, according to Encarta dictionary definition. But individually it’s essential for one to set out an aspiration that creates, by design, a chasm between ambition and resources (time), thus the need for one to manage his daily affairs. Of all the things I’ve done in life, the most vital is coordinating my talents and pointing them towards certain goals.

Time they say waits for no one. Time is a conscious experience of duration, a limited period during which an action, process or condition exist or take place. With 24 hours in a day, 1440 minutes and 86400 seconds, yet we still find time limited to conduct our daily affairs. With seven days in a week (168 hours of the week) it’s kind of difficult for one to tract his whole seven days activities hour by hour, then again nothing is impossible if one believe it’s possible.
Recording my daily affairs hour by hour for seven consecutive days wasn’t at all easy. At first I thought it’d be one kind heck of a job, but little did know is that it’d be fun along the way. Fun aside, doing this help me strategize and give priorities to my activities, especially my school programs. The first day of the week is Sunday, knowing that I thought its best I start recording my activities from the first day of the week. But since from childhood I believed Monday to be the first day of the week, and that mentality is still part of me. So instead of Sunday I’m starting with Monday.

Waking up 5am in the morning had become a habit in my life as a Muslim. Straight I’d head to the toilet after waking up, brush up my teeth and have my ablution, do my NAFILAS and

I then lay out my clothes for the day on my bed and walk to the bathroom to take a shower. I wash my hair, body, and face in the shower then get out and dry myself.

    Breaking Norms

    Sometimes we find ourselves stuck in an endless loop and continue to circulate our lives around a structured schedule. This “daily routine” we follow may dictate our schedule, but it also remains oblivious to our thoughts and stays put in the back of our mind. As a student, I can't help but to say that this is indeed true. Expectations of my day follow: waking up, eating breakfast, getting to the train on time, attending classes(trying not to fall asleep), disciplining myself to do homework and to getting to bed at a decent time. Maybe you follow my schedule, maybe you don’t but indeed, after reading this you could possibly ask yourself “Wow, is that really all I do?”. Indeed, it is. Breaking these norms can sound like a waste of time…

    In the mornings, I like to oversleep or stay in bed until the sun is high up in the sky. This laziness gives me a feeling of peace and quiet after a hard-working week. Saturday and Sunday are the only days of the week when I have time to have a nice rich breakfast, surrounded by my family. We have time to dawdle, to talk about our week and maybe read a newspaper or a popular magazine. Mum makes us pancakes and she serves them with chocolate and milk. This is the only moment when we feel spoiled by life and we like to take it easy, so that it doesn’t go away.…
