Allah Who is the Time.’ Sahih Muslim.

narrated that the Messenger of Allah s.a.w. said “Two favors that many of
the people squander are health and free time.” (Sahih)

Indeed, mankind is in loss. Except for
those who have believed and done righteous deeds and advised each other to
truth and advised each other to patience.”
(Surah Al-Asr)

By using a physical planner book. It depends on people
on how they like to plan things. But for me, I like to write down things that
needed to be done so that it will stay in my head longer.
·
I don’t always bring my planner with me so what I did
was I kept thinking of things that needed to be done in earlier times. I like
to think/ organized things that matters in my head because it’s a lot easier
and safe time too.

Make the Prophet Muhammad and his companions as an example
of my daily life, and here’s a video on how successful people at the beginning of
time organized their time wisely.
