If you improve your time management, you can improve your travel experiences and your travel business operations. So enjoy this brief layover with some short success tips from travel pros who know that time management requires basic management skills as well as learning more about timing issues.

Take the Helm – Just as a good ship’s Captain takes charge of operations, you need to do so, too. No matter whether running your travel operations from out of your home or not, you still need to take charge. Plus it’s equally important to be enthusiastic about your choices and travel ideas, because if you do not enjoy what you’re doing you may either need a break – a travel break! – or to rethink your career strategy and what you’re doing right now. Pros know that the more enthusiastic you are, the more you put into your client packages of yourself and the more you can get out of them.

Decision-Making Skill - You also need to make educated, prompt, firm decisions. Yes, you can change your mind, from time to time, but take a stand and make a decision, right or wrong. Don’t let things get in the way and bog you down. Start by getting more organized with a good planning system like Franklin Covey’s planners and planning software, compatible with Outlook and handheld unit so that you can prioritize tasks and actually complete them in a timely manner.

Know that decision-making is a skill and it can be learned and improved upon, like using tools to help and taking time to learn from past decisions. And pros know that planned are most often the wisest.

Stay Informed – It’s no secret that everyone has the same number of hours in a day and that it’s what you do with them that counts. So do like the pros and study what they do. Find a mentor or coach. Keep up with the travel industry and work-at-home industry and any other fields of interest to learn about any changes and news that may help with your day-to-day operations.

And finally, go back over these basic guidelines to help ensure your own success with time management. Keep up with the latest issues and don’t ever stop learning. Brush up on your leadership and your decision-making skills so that these will take your whereever you want to go.
