Time management strategies are often associated with the recommendation to set goals. These goals are recorded and may be broken down into a project, an action plan, or a simple task list.
For individual tasks or for goals, an importance rating may be established, deadlines may be set, and priorities assigned. This process results in a plan with a task list or a schedule or calendar of activities.
In relation with prioritization based on goals, there is a methoh called: POSEC is an acronym for Prioritize by Organizing, Streamlining, Economizing and Contributing.
The method dictates a template which emphasizes an average individual's immediate sense of emotional and monetary security.
It suggests that by attending to one's personal responsibilities first, an individual is better positioned to shoulder collective responsibilities. The acronym has meanings:
(1) Prioritize - Your time and define your life by goals.
(2) Organizing - Things you have to accomplish regularly to be successful. (Family and Finances)
(3) Streamlining - Things you may not like to do, but must do. (Work and Chores)
(4) Economizing - Things you should do or may even like to do, but they're not pressingly urgent. (Pastimes and Socializing)
(5) Contributing - By paying attention to the few remaining things that make a difference, related to Social Obligations. (Source: Wikipedia on Time Management)
