This text discusses the concept of time management, focusing on three key components: Goal, Direction, and Process (referred to as GDP). The author emphasizes that while clock time is irrelevant, real time is mental and relates to how we think about and manage our time. The narrative begins with a story about a newly educated MBA who encounters a man relaxing on a hammock on the beach. The MBA questions the man's lack of productivity, suggesting he could fish and accumulate wealth. The man reveals that he already owns the fishing boats and is relaxed because his sons manage the business. This highlights two purposes of time management: the "Joy of Doing" and the "Sense of Fulfillment." The author argues that enjoyment in work leads to a sense of satisfaction, fulfilling the purpose of time management. Additionally, the text introduces the concept of direction in time management, using a metaphor of traveling from Mumbai to Sri Lanka by ship, emphasizing the importance of having clear goals and direction in managing time effectively.
