Steve Pavlina talks about how to make accurate time estimates.

I am usually pretty good at doing my own time estimates, from estimating project and task times, to knowing how long it will take me to shop, or getting to a meeting 15 minutes ahead of time. In fact, when I was at a beginner’s improv class and we were asked to estimate how long it took us to a series of scenes while verbal instructions were given, I was only off by a couple of minutes, while the rest of the class thought it was half the time, having been lost in all the emotions and actions. I was, too, but my internal ticking clock was right there with me counting while I was in ‘other worlds’.

Anyway, I’m sure the link above would prove useful not only for managing your work and business estimates, but also for personal time management.
