Top Ten Time Saver

We have learned about time saver to save us from the time killer. Let us look on our time savers. In this article we will learn more about our time savers.

Phones

Surprise Surprise, we had included phones list of time killers, but phones are in fact one of the best time savers that man has invented. Imagine the time you get to save by just making a telephone interview.

Suppose you have a business lunch (sometimes called a working lunch) with a major customer. Obviously you have to book a table at your favorite restaurant. Now imagine you have to go there personally and get things done directly. The task would easily take away at least two or three hours of your time when you take into account routing, traffic and all that. On the other hand, it is something you can easily do over the phone while you are comfortably seated in your office.

So phones are certainly one of the most time savers in this world. But of course, it all depends on how you use your phone.

Computers

We do not think enough can be said of the time-saving roles computer. But we do not think we need to say much. We assume each will agree that computers are actually time-saving machines.

Elevators

Next we come to the lifts and elevators for we know save a lot of time that we would other wise have to spend strenuous up and flights steps. Elevators save not only time but energy as well. But one annoying thing about elevators is that sometimes even f we punch the button repeatedly, the elevator takes for ever to reach or floor.

Now if you just go two or three floors up or down in such cases it is always better to take the stairs instead of waiting ten or fifteen minutes for the elevator to get to your floor. It is better for your health also top climb a few stairs every day.

Fax Machines

Like telephones, faxes also save a lot of time by giving us the opportunity to send important documents across the continents where it is necessary and it is also within a few seconds.

Internet

It goes without saying that the Internet has revolutionized our perception of time itself. With facilities like e-mail, scanners, voice mail and video conferencing, even fax machine obsolete. Talk about fast.

Coffee Machines

We did it on purpose. When people see that a coffee maker on the list over time savers, they tend to screw up their noses and raising their eyebrows. But would you believe that earlier, before the coffee machine had been noticed in offices, people used to take coffee breaks, which lasted up to half an hour?

Bulletin or notice boards

Bulletin and message boards is very time efficient way to reach large numbers of people. Instead of conducting one of these long meetings, where all you get a chance to go on and on is the game to get the message through bulletin boards and newsletters that can be displayed at a place accessible to all. Oh yes, then comes the question of how to ensure that the message is read by all interested parties.

Simple, include space communication where interested persons can put down on their initials as proof that they have read the message.

From this article, we learned how the time savers can be so useful for us, especially in our busy lives. They are not only helping us to perform our work, but they are also easier for us to achieve our goals in our lives.
