Time Management in the 21st Century

Time management has changed for ever with the advent of the digital information era. Never before has it been easier to control your time than it is now.

Gone are the days where you use a briefcase, Rolodex and a box of business cards. The clutter of days gone by is all over. When PDAs first hit the scene there were all the rage, but even they have seen their day.

Twitter has given us a whole new suite of tools to use to measure how effectively we do our timing. Outlook and other email programs have given us another range of tools to better manage our time.

To the new generation of people this is all comes as part of life. However there are many thousands of people of the baby boomer era to whom this is all new. The skill set needed to run these new tools are lacking so it is now catch up time.

Time management was always considered a really dry subject but this has changed as I hope to demonstrate in this book. The ability to track and order your day is now so much easier than it has ever been. There can be no excuses for forgetting to do something as it is all in your hand, and readily available.
