The sound of unlimited earnings could be overwhelming. So everytime we heard of a new earning site and see payment proof, we hurriedly sign up or start working with them. We keep on clicking, reading, writing, surfing, posting and doing everything in the name of cash. There's nothing wrong with it as long as your personal life, social obligations, job description and the like are not affected. There could be times that you feel tired at the end of the day after long hours of being in front of your computer. Have you ever asked what went wrong? Maybe, just maybe, you are overworking...

The good thing about homebased jobs is that you work on a flexible time. There are no deadlines to beat, and you can earn without limit. But how can you maximize online profit by investing time? Simple, TIME MANAGEMENT.

According to Wikipedia:
Time management refers to a range of skills, tools, and techniques used to manage time when accomplishing specific tasks, projects and goals. This set encompass a wide scope of activities, and these include planning, allocating, setting goals, delegation, analysis of time spent, monitoring, organizing, scheduling, and prioritizing. Initially time management referred to just business or work activities, but eventually the term broadened to include personal activities also. A time management system is a designed combination of processes, tools and techniques.

Let me share you the simplest TIME Management Matrix that I usually use to avoid cramming. I have learned it from someone in the Leadership Training. Since I'm dealing with my ONLINE TASKS, let us first list each one of them in no particular order:
