Time Scheduling

The difference between tight and flexible scheduling and which is better in use.
Time schedules that are flexible vs. tight schedules. Is there truly that much of a difference? I don’t really think that there is there is always going to be a time where things aren’t going to work out time wise and that there is not that much that can be done about it.
For tight schedules I do believe however that there is not enough time in each to do what we want scheduled and that just looking at a tight schedule is actually more stressful than most. Most of the time when tight time schedules are made there is a lot to factor in and takes time away from relaxation. Just taking the time to make the schedules is ridiculous and unheard of when trying to make sure that there is enough time to get things done.
Flexible schedules; are harder to follow knowing that there is that time to do things. Another thing that is also hard to follow about flexible schedules is that with everything one the list of to do’s throughout the day there still could be a few more items added. There is where both types of scheduling collides and creates a massive headache for anyone trying to plan their day out perfectly tight or flexible.
As time goes by you find yourself watching the clock to see if you’re going to be late for the next thing that needs attention. These schedules are often based on what is seen as should be done instead of the necessity. With that there becomes a sense of urgency to make sure that everything gets done that way there is no chance of the mistakes that are often made.
The large items like financial or home things that need to be done should be the first to be fixed into a schedule and that there is a lot that can be done from there. There is so much that we take for granted and time is not excluded. People who have tight schedules often forget to time themselves for some rest and relaxation and not just sleep, and the people that prefer the flexible schedules often forget that there are other things that they need to be doing.
Remarkably there are these two types of people out there. My husband and I are both of these people. I used to be the person running on a tight schedule all the time and the only thing that I would schedule for myself was sleep and only eight hours of it. My husband had been on the flexible side of the schedule also going “we have a few minutes, relax.” Between the two of us we have compromised how to work a flexible and tight schedule together. Where we both make sure that what needs to be done gets done and yet we still have time to make sure that we get the rest and relaxation that we deserve.
