Time Management Strategies for Night Shift Workers

0:01
with that comes time management um so
0:05
similar to the last slide we're talking
0:06
about mapping things out and seeing how
0:09
or where they can fit so for time
0:11
management I want to map out my wake
0:13
periods so knowing the hours when you
0:16
would like to be asleep so your ideal
0:18
sleep routine maybe right now it's not
0:20
where I want it to be but I know I need
0:22
to get six to eight hours of sleep that
0:24
time's blocked off and then knowing when
0:27
you'll be awake so you know what time
0:29
you have available um if I'm sleeping
0:33
from 8:00 am to 300 p.m then I know that
0:38
I have 3 to 7 or whatever to get all of
0:42
my other things done what can I
0:44
reasonably and realistically do in this
0:48
time frame so again maybe you pull from
0:50
your list on the previous slide and you
0:52
map out when you could do that if I need
0:55
to pick up soand so from school perfect
0:57
i could do that at 3:30 and then I could
0:59
come home and make dinner and then after
1:01
dinner I might exercise you know you fit
1:04
in what your priorities are and what
1:06
works for you and then adjust as needed
1:09
so the schedule that you're originally
1:11
making doesn't have to be fixed um
1:15
things can shift around and move you're
1:17
just making a schedule that works for
1:19
now based on the lists you've identified
1:22
things you do might change your you know
1:25
schedule might change um what you can
1:27
reasonably fit in or how often you're
1:29
sleeping you know all of those things
1:31
might change and so be flexible in your
1:33
list it does not have to be rigid it can
1:36
change as you need it to change
