Time management skills are simple. The problem is all of us are different, and each of us has to learn which skill works best for us. Often when we fail, we feel discouraged, depressed, stressed, and our confidence is affected.

Failure is a state of mind however, and can be resolved rather quickly. It only takes a minute to screw up something, but it can take a lifetime to restore it. Therefore, simplicity is a state of mind we want to cultivate to manage our time wisely, as well as avoiding generalizing.
