3. Use a timer
Do not let social networks distract you. Instead of chatting on Skype do what you are supposed to do. If need be, use a timer. Set the alarm on your phone and do something useful related to your work.
4. Use Applications
If you a smartphone owner, make use of the apps the device provides. You can set up a calendar and keep appointments and other important information there. Some phones can help you make a shopping list, things-to-do list and a time log. The Lockbox app is good to store bank info and passwords. Also, you can download many other apps that will make your time management simple and straightforward.
