                                                  Power Tools for Time Management
                                   I hope that these general strategies and the practical tactics
                               I’ve shared with you help put you on the road to a more pro-
                               ductive, serene, and organizationally graceful life, one that fits
                               your preferred approach to work and life.
                                   Good luck in your efforts! You can succeed. Time needn’t be
                               your enemy. In fact, with the right techniques and tools, you can
                               agree with the words of poet Sara Teasdale: “Time is a kind
                               friend.”

                               ❏ Before selecting a timesaving tool, assess how its features
                                   fit your needs.
                               ❏ Make sure it’s user-friendly and reliable, and it will remain
                                   up-to-date for a reasonable length of time.

                               ❏ Arrange your files for logic, ease, and instant accessibility.
                               ❏ Shape your work environment for maximum pleasure and
                                   productivity.
