One of the habits of personal management is for you to continually focus on those few things that only you can do, that if done well, will make a real difference at work. Simultaneously, you must be continually using your creativity, not to find ways to do more things, but to find ways to eliminate, down-size and outsource tasks that contribute very little to your life or work.
The fact is that you can only get control over your time and your life, and increase your productivity, performance and output, to the degree to which you stop doing things of low value. This is the only way that you can free up more time to do those few things that really make a difference.
Your most powerful tool for success is your ability to think. Nowhere is this ability more important than when you use it to choose and decide what you are going to do, and in what order. The accuracy of your choices in deciding how you are going to spend your time and your life largely determines everything that happens to you. And you are always free to choose.
