I feel as if I'm always behind and have no way to catch up. I'm always rushing. 5. I feel I'm working long hours. 6. I constantly feel overwhelmed by demands and details, and feel I have to do what I don't want to do most of the time. 7. I am late for meetings, and don't prepare for them properly. 8. I take worries and problems home with me. 9. I miss deadlines. 10. I feel listless with many slack hours of unproductive activity. 11. I put off carrying out unpleasant but essential activities.

25. Time Management Assessment • Work out your score: • 3 x #Often + 2 x #Sometimes + 1 x #Seldom = If you scored 10 or less, you may benefit from learning additional time management techniques, but your day-to-day stress level is probably not significantly affected by time pressure. If you scored 11 to 24, you could use some time management training to significantly reduce time pressures. If you scored 25 or over, your life may feel out of control. People who score over 25 usually "don't have time" for training in time management!
