Final Answer : E, Explanation :  Good time management involves prioritizing tasks and focusing on the most important and urgent ones first, while also managing interruptions and distractions. However, delegating tasks and leaving appropriate details for others to address is an important part of managing one's time effectively, not something to avoid. Therefore, option E, which suggests not leaving details for others, is not a part of good time management.
