Welcome to Module 3!  Module 3 is focused on time management. You will spend a great deal of time (ha!) this week exploring time wasters and learning tools to improve your time management.  Effective leaders manage their time well and help others do the same.

John Maxwell is considered a leadership expert.  Maxwell's advice on time management for leaders is to stay productive and successful by following this list of don'ts:

1. Don't get sucked into social media.
2. Don't go through the day without a plan.
3. Don't do emotionally draining activities.
4. Don't worry about things you cannot control.
5. Don't hang out with negative people.
6. Don't dwell on past mistakes.
7. Don't focus on what other people are doing.
8. Don't put yourself last in priority.

What do you know about time management? Take a few minutes to tap into your prior knowledge and assess how effectively you maximize time.


Module 3 Lesson 1 Notes & Check Your Knowledge Quiz
Use the guided notes handout to record the information you learn from the Lesson 1 notes. When you are finished, take the Check Your Knowledge matching quiz on page 10 of the notes.  Screenshot your results and post.  The "check answer" button should work but if it does not, please screenshot your answers and I will grade.
Module 3 Lesson 1 Practice Activity
If you struggle with managing and/or maximizing your time, this activity is a great tool to help you figure out and balance tasks. You will learn how to determine what is urgent, non-urgent, important, and not important. Take this activity seriously and organize a week's worth of activities. Completing the Time Management Matrix will not only prepare you for Lesson 1 Assignment, it will help you look at how you spend your time differently.
