TIME MANAGEMENT Team Meeting August 21st 2017

INTRODUCTION Time itself cannot be managed. It is constant and it always goes forward, never backwards. Everyone has the same amount of time in a day. What makes the difference is how each one uses their time. Therefore, if you are managing time, you are not trying to manipulate time, you are trying to make the best use of your time.
