Stressed and need better time management

My friends have told me that I have a problem with time management, and I think they are right. When I think about it, I'm always in a hurry and stressed because I'm always running late.

The problem is that I like everything to be perfect - I am a but of a perfectionist and I spend so much time trying to do tasks to perfection.

This is not just work (I work as an administrative officer), but is also about things outside of work, whether it is cleaning the house or my own appearance - I take ages to get ready!

Basically I spend so much time to try and make things perfect that I am hesitant to get ready for work or to do anything because the whole thing is really tiring.

Any advice for me so that I can reduce the time spent doing things? Thanks!
