Assignment - Business Standpoint Essay
Description - Write a list of 15 or more specific actions you have taken in the past two days. (The actions are specific if someone could have recorded you doing them with a video camera.)
Write about what you have learned or relearned concerning your use of time. And as a result, what will you do that you have not been doing? Effective writing anticipates questions that a reader may have and answers these questions clearly. To dive deep in this journal entry, answer questions such as the following:
What exactly did you discover after analyzing your time?
In which quadrant do you spend the most time?
What specific evidence did you use to draw this conclusion?
If you continue using your time in this way, are you likely to reach your goals and dreams? Why or why not?
What most often keeps you from taking purposeful actions?
How do you feel about your discoveries?
What different choices, if any, do you intend to make about how you use time?
On a separate sheet, draw a four-quadrant chart like the example in the article. Write each action from your list in Step 1 in the appropriate quadrant on your chart. After each action, put the approximate amount of time you spent in the activity. For example, Quadrant IV might be filled with actions such as these:
1. Watched TV (2 hours)
2. Phone call to Terry (1 hour)
3. Watched TV (3 hours)
4. Went to the mall and wandered around (2 hours)
5. Hung out in the cafeteria (2 hours)
6. Played video game (4 hours)
