I’ve gotten by pretty well up until now without using any formal time management tools. Why change now?

The benefits of time management include stress relief, greater self confidence, more free time to pursue interests outside of medicine, and more effective results from your time spent in medicine.

Managing your time better means you can pack more activities into your day, to cut your current activities in half, to keep your activity level the same, but reduce stress, meet deadlines, etc., to change from “I can’t do this now” to “how can I do this now?”  If you don’t manage your time you are relinquishing control of your life to outside forces.
