Management is an outcome not an effort

When I ask somebody about Management, I get long definitions...Like ... It is a way we manage the resources. It's a way we manage the time, It's a way we get the work done. Management Is art and science (That popular MBA definition)

People usually think of management as a job. They think management can be only done during jobs by experimenting with resources and deadlines. But, What I think is Management starts from the very minute your alarm rings.

The way you manage after waking up from a tiring day. Management is, Scheduling the tasks for the day and accomplishing them. 

Timeboxing majorly helps in management. If the tasks are not time-boxed, we will never understand the value of time. Because we think, we have forever to accomplish these tasks...

Time-box the tasks... And you will be the master of each and every minute you spend in a day. When time boxing becomes a habit, management becomes the ultimate consequence. You don't have to manage anything. It gets managed itself

Management is not an art or science. It is the outcome of timeboxed habits. It does not require efforts, It just needs schedule to be followed

You have to become a multi-personality person at the same time  Thus constant observation is necessary. Until you reach the root of their behavior in different situations, Getting the work done by them is pretty difficult. I am still working on it as it is a very long chapter  2. Prioritization Your team is totally dependent on you when it comes to information. Whatever you communicate will be worked upon by them. At the end of the day, The output depends upon the inform...

EXPLORE YOURSELF

Life is full of wrong and right turns. You have to pass through these turns to get to the right path.  Sometimes na, it happens .... it happens that before getting to the right path, we take some wrong turns. It is called EXPLORATION You are probably in the exploration stage of your life , where you are taking turns, staying there for a while, and observing things. And now you have started feeling stuck.
