    friends,
    Am working woman and am very bad at time management. I donot find time for personal activities or ME-time.
    Can you please share how are you managing to manage your time.
    Please share your daily routine activities and the time required to complete that starting from waking up in mrg till going to bed. It will help many people like me to learn and get encouragement.

    Dear OP, for a working woman it’s very hard to find me time or personal time on weekdays in my experience. Morning 6 to evening 6.30 is spent at work & getting back. After that cooking, cleaning, putting kid to sleep, prepping for the next day. I pretty much find my me time for an hour or two after putting Dd to bed at 10. But that comes at the cost of my sleep , I try to make do with a 6 hour or less sleep during weekdays. It may not be ideal for everyone, but that’s my only personal fix!

    One more area you could make for personal time is if you had cooking & cleaning help, but I guess one would still need to supervise domestic help, so not much help there. So cutting from sleep seems like only option, though not healthy in long run.

    It is very necessary for all men to understand the power of women and let them go ahead to make themselves independent and power of the family and country. Very popular and Inspirational Woman speech
