"If you don't know where you are going, you might end up someplace else." Yogi Berra's wise words can also be applied to time-management. In order to be successful at time-management you need to know where you are going, what you want to do with your time. After rating their time use, graphing their energy levels, setting and visualizing life goals, and examining some time-management tools, participants craft a time-management plan of their own.
