Everyone gets the same amount of time each and every day, and it's limited, so it is important to make the most of your time if you ever want to be more than average as a Marine. Effective time management allows you to accomplish more with less effort. By taking control of your time, you're able to stay focused on the task at hand.

When you control your time and work more efficiently, you're able to learn more and increase your experience faster.
