Time is the only thing we, as humans, can own and that is also the only thing that we cannot control. What we can control is what we do with the time that we have.
You might hear this often, “Rummy is so time-consuming!” or “I can’t stop playing Rummy!” or “I don’t get time to play Rummy!” All of these problems are rooted in the lack of time management.
When you play Rummy, you learn a lot about how to execute your strategies quickly and confuse your opponents.
However, in this blog, we discuss the time management aspect of your day in order to play the optimal amount of Rummy and not completely lose yourself in the game.
Importance of Time Management in Rummy
Your time should be very important to you, and hence, this blog aims to help you find a balance between your work life and Rummy.
Two major things that usually happen:
- You don’t get enough time to play Rummy due to your profession or household chores.
- You get so engrossed in playing Rummy that you forget important work that you have to get done.
Both of these are the reasons why you must concentrate on managing your time effectively in order to get enough time to play games and work together.
Especially, being so engrossed in the game that you start seeing negative consequences can hurt your mental and physical well-being. If you start seeing signs, you should get to the management part immediately.
Tips For Managing Time While Playing Rummy
● Understand Priorities
If you have 8 things to do in a day, you must organise your activities according to their importance. These might include things like day jobs, family chores, household chores, family time, eating and sleeping, Rummy, errands, etc. Allocate your time to these jobs accordingly.
● Schedule Your Day
When you are done understanding the priorities of your to-do list, you will have to make a schedule. Make a list by writing down these things in an ascending sequence of importance, i.e., high priority to low priority. This will work as a morning reminder of your duties and responsibilities.
● Use Timers and Reminders
Setting a timer for when you play Rummy will help you a lot more than you think it will. Rummy is an extremely engaging game and will have you hooked for hours without you realising it. If you want to keep yourself from doing that, ensure using Rummy apps with time reminders.
● Implement Stringent Discipline
Ensure that you are following all the disciplinary rules you have put on yourself. Without that, managing your time will only remain for planners and schedules.
● Set Realistic Goals
When you set unrealistic goals somewhere deep down in your mind, you already know you won’t be able to complete them. So, you avoid following the schedule. However, setting realistic goals will help you get over this difficulty.
Final Thoughts
Time management in Rummy requires conscious effort. Since the game is highly engaging, you can easily lose track of time. This can interfere with your other responsibilities, so following the tips given above is important.
Taking care of your time is like taking care of yourself. You should be able to control the narrative around playing Rummy and not the other way around.
