Happy Monday!
After two days of sleeping in and napping off and on, and a weekend where I got very little done, I’m up before the sun this morning and actually getting things crossed off my list already! I guess I needed the down time and I know I’d like more of that in the coming year. So, in today’s read I’m revisiting some time management tips and starting to look at where I can make changes to my schedule so that I don’t stress out over everything I want to do.

Because let’s face it, poor time management can cause extreme stress if you’re always running behind or continually pushing up against deadlines.
I’ve found, in my own struggles to deal with time management that there are a few things you can do to get a clearer picture of how you’re using your time and what you can do to improve that.
Here are 5 tips for realistic time management:
