Your weekly plan gives you a picture of what your week looks like and any quite spots that you can plan or simply rest and recuperate.

A good time management schedule is one that is flexible to the changing demands of your situation. A weekly schedule is a framework of the way you want to spend your time, however sometimes you can't anticipate a crises or a long-lost relative coming to town.

Your schedule should be able to accommodate the unforeseen.

Finally, a good weekly time management schedule should not schedule tasks so tightly that you are unable to unwind or relax. Your best performances do not occur when you are fatigued or under continuous pressure.

Your weekly plan can then funnel down into a prioritized to-do list which can keep you focused on what you have to do rather than the stress of having too much to do.
