We have a limited amount of time.  So, managing our time well is very important.  Good time management actually leads to happiness and optimism while poor time management has very unpleasant consequences.  Everygame Casino has said in the past that time management for gaming is no less important than time management for work and other more serious activities.

Isn’t Online Casino Gaming a Superficial Activity?

A person might say that to speak about time management in reference to online casino gaming is insignificant when we have to mange time at work and in our personal relationships.

This is a mistaken point of view.  In this article, we will see that online casino gaming is a wonderfully fun activity, well worth gamers’ time, how the elements of good time management relate to online casino gaming, and why wisely managing your gaming time is a super positive process.

First, a Word about ONLINE Casino Gaming

We feel that online casino gaming is a far superior activity to land-based casino gaming.  At a land-based casino, players have a much harder time invoking the elements of sound time management.  Land-based casino players also have a very hard time managing their money and we will talk about that in an upcoming article.

Here are just a few of the drawbacks of playing at a land-based casino:

1. People pay to travel to a land-based casino, often substantially.
2. People often go to a land-based casino for a long weekend, making time management extremely difficult.
3. After a few hours at a land-based casino, people often get bored but have little else to do so they spend even more time on the casino floor.
4. Land-based casinos calibrate the random number generator to pay out less to slots players than we do here at Everygame Casino and at most online casinos.
5. Land-based casinos often pay out less for a blackjack or for a full house and flush in video poker than we pay out at Everygame.
6. Land-based casinos offer free alcohol which reduces player’s cognitive skill and leads to poor decisions.
7. Because land-based casino players often use their time poorly, they can be said to be gambling, while sound time management at Everygame Casino leads players to become gamers and their activity at the casino to be gaming.

What is Time Management?

Time management involves dedicating the right amount to time for important activities.  It also involves devoting some time to less important activities.  We readily admit that for a person with responsibility at work and at home, online casino gaming is an activity with less importance.

This does not mean, however, that online casino gaming has no importance.  In fact, we contend that online casino gaming has great importance even as it ranks below work and family.

Sound Management Requires Skill at Prioritizing

We say skill at this important activity since prioritizing does not come naturally to people.  We want to play as much as we can and we can also fall into the habit of playing too much.  In the great movie, The Twelve Chairs, the lady of the manor tells her husband, “Hurry home but don’t gallop.”  Playing casino games for too long a time is similar in nature to hurrying home without galloping.

Self-control Determines Everything

We exercise self-control in so many areas such as eating, alcohol consumption, shopping, driving, and innumerable other activities.  Palying online casino games is yet another area where we have to exercise self-control.

We have reached a kind of hierarchy of elements that make up sound time management.

1. Developing skill at prioritizing.  This also involves becoming skilled at making decisions.
2. Developing skill at organizing the many things we do every day.
3. Recognizing the importance of self-control.

There are five important things that good time management leads to.  Four of these refer to a person’s status at work or within a group and one is a much more personal benefit.

1. Respect.
2. Being more productive, which we hope will be recognized by our superiors.
3. This leads to better chances to get promoted at work.
4. This leads to better chances to achieve our deepest goals.
5. This leads to a lot less stress.

Less Stress is One of the Great Benefits of Online Casino Gaming

A person comes home after a long day at work and needs to relax and unwind.  This is another way of saying reducing stress.  Playing the more than 300 games we offer here at Everygame for a very reasonable length of time can, and in most cases does, reduce stress.

The key is to play for a relatively short length of time.  Keep in mind that, as an online casino, Everygame is available to gamers every day, all day!  There is no reason to lengthen a gaming session for fear of losing out the next day.  At a land-based casino, the next day the player will return home.  At Everygame, the gamer is usually already at home.

Good Time Management Relieves Pressure

If a person absolutely must get back to working on a work project, they can reduce the gaming session from, say, 60 minutes to 30 minutes.  If you need even more time for work, you can chop off even more time from the gaming session.

You will always be able to play our casino games at a later time.

It will always be easier to shorten a gaming session if you have already formally determined the best length for a session.

Multi-tasking is Good and Multi-tasking is Not So Good

When we multi-task, we often try to do too much at the same time.  An online casino such as Everygame can welcome thousands of gamers and can facilitate them all playing the same game at the same time.  We can multi-task!

Most people have a very hard time doing two things at once.  If you absolutely have to concentrate on one task, we suggest not trying to play online casino games at the same time.  Of course, there are times when the ability to multi-task comes in handy.  But, for the most part, people should concentrate fully on the single task at hand, finish it, and then go on to the next task.

Here are a few ways that multi-tasking can be beneficial:

1. Listening to music, a book, or someone in the background telling jokes.
2. Listening to a sports event.
3. Baking and cooking at the same time.
4. Hiking and bird watching.
5. Taking notes.
6. Being on several social media sites at the same time.
7. Calming a crying child while attending to another child.
8. Reading while eating.
9. Helping two kids with their homework.

Gaming at Everygame Casino is a Singke-task Activity

This is why we recommend relatively short sessions.  The first rule of good time management may be to recognize that there will always be another time to play.  We offer over 300 games.  That means that we have hours and hours of happy gaming for time-sensitive gamers.  If you have not yet signed up to play here, may we invite you to…
