Time Management

“All things are in rush” I told to my self as I cram for all the things in my life. The problem set, my article, I need to review for the quiz next day… Wow! Can I do all this within 24 hours? I feel pressured as the time goes on.
May be this is the usual scenario that can happen to a student who does not know about time management. But there are students who do not want to use time management at all the reason of disappointment. Do we really we want? I have some conversation with other students and I ask them “Do you use time management in your life or in your study?” Others say “YES” and the others say “NO”. The reasons why others say YES is because they preferred to be organize and they want to have an accomplishment at the end of the day. While others refuse to do so because they want to let heir self do things in natural way in manner of ”first thing, come first, do first” they don’t want to be disappointed if they fail to do all things hey set up for tomorrow.
Generally, time management refers to he development of processes and tools that increase efficiency and productivity. Here is the list of tips for those who wish to improve their time management skills.
1. Realize that time management is a myth. No matter how organized we are, there are always only 24 hours in a day. Time doesn’t change. All we can actually manage is ourselves and hat we do with the time that we have.
2. Find out where you’re wasting time.
Many of us are prey to time-wasters that steal time we could be using much more productively. Finding where your time is spent for nothing must be avoided. Remember, the focus of time management is actually changing your behaviors, not changing time. A good place to start is by eliminating your personal time-wasters. For one week, for example, set a goal that you’re not going o take communicate of nonsense through text while you’re in school. Focus in your study.
3. Implement a time management plan.
Thin of this as an extension of time management tip # 2. The objective is to change your behaviors over time to achieve whatever general goal you’ve set for your productivity or decreasing your stress. So you need not only see specific goal, but track them over time to see whether or not you’re accomplishing them.
4. Use time management tools.
Whether it’s a Day-Timer or a software program, the first step to physically managing your time is to know where its going now and planning how you’re going to spend your time in the future. A software programs such as outlook, for instance, lets you schedule events easily and can be set to remind you of events in advance, making your time management easier or for as student use a notebook where you can put your schedule for a day. Do this at night, when you can think of what you’re going to do for the next day.
5. You should start each day with a time management session prioritizing the task for that day and setting your performance benchmark. If you have 2 tasks for a day, how many of them do you truly need to accomplish? Try to do at least half of the set task for each day and then continue for the following day if needed.
6. Establish routines and stick to them as much as possible. While crises will arise, you’ll be much more productive if you can folly routines most
