Ship of Courage
Wednesday, January 26th, 2011Most of the students think that schoolwork is the reason why you are running out of time to do the things that you need to accomplish; but oftentimes, the problem is not just because of the lack of time because a recent study showed that there are two major reasons why students have problems with their academic aspects and these are poor use of time and lack of organization. College students, when given a big project such as making an artist website, they tend to be distracted and their time in doing other things online such as updating their social networking accounts. So that you can be organized, you need to have a pocket size note book so that you can list down all the things that you need to do and record every assignment, projects, call, idea, or errand even if it is just a small task or detail; you may find this suggestion very overwhelming at first but later on you will realize that your schedule can become a very manageable one. Do the things that are more important and focus your time and energy in finishing the tasks; eliminate the ones that are not so important and those you simply you do not have time to do. Have a written schedule and transform it into a plan of action, and a pocket calendar may serve you well in this regard; this schedule is not restricting your from your freedom of doing the things that you want but instead, this will enable you to have more control on your time. Be realistic with all your work and do not afraid to perform trial and error.
