How you manage or fail to manage your time has a significant effect on your interpersonal relationships, self-esteem, health and overall performance.
Most proverbs usually discourage the wastage of time. For example, “time & tide wait for no man”, “he who hesitates is lost”, “time lost can never be recovered”, “strike while the iron is hot”, etc. therefore, time management is an essential life skill that every individual should learn.
Effective time management has a myriad of beneficial effects. For one, you gain a feeling of efficiency. This boosts your morale and enhances your productivity. In the end, you will feel more accomplished and attain a higher level of self-esteem. Having good esteem means that you will have more positive thinking, a good appetite as well as a healthier mind.

On the other hand, poor time management can tremendously enhance your stress levels. Excessive negative stress might overcome your body, making you temporarily immobilized. This can hinder the accomplishment of your aims. Subsequently, you might end up developing physical health issues such as heart disease, anxiety, lower immunity, etc. Other effects include subdued digestion, heart palpitations, as well as an enhancement in insulin levels.
One of the best methods through which you can lower your stress levels is through ensuring that you receive ample rest. You can as well identify positive coping mechanisms such as exercise, socialization etc. Practice whatever you feel works for you until it becomes second nature.
Most adults tend to sacrifice their sleep, especially during stressful or busy moments. Though the youth and some professionals commonly do this, your productivity will certainly reduce over time even if you accomplish all your tasks. Therefore, effective time management is essential in maintaining good health and optimum productivity.
Good sleep enables your brain to consolidate learned information, make sense out of your day’s occurrences. Moreover, you create a room within your mind to learn more information as well as to attain optimal performance.
Therefore, always remember to create an effective time-management schedule & stick to it.
