Time Management ( Journal#21 )

Sometimes we don’t notice that time runs very quickly, we can’t stop it, but we tend to spend our time as efficiently as possible. Time management helps us to organize our tasks and actions within a certain period of time. If people follow their schedules, people will become more organized. It is very important to be always on time: when you turn in your homework, research paper, documents and so on, when you have an appointment or a class, and when you have to do something before a deadline. When I try to organize my time I usually use following tips:

Prioritize assignments - you can begin with the most difficult or with the most important or with the most urgent subject. It is up to you. For example, if you have project assignment and the deadline is next week (Group Survey Project), it is better for you to begin with this subject.

Try to split your homework during the weekends. Don’t think that Sunday is an endless day and you can finish all your homework within one day. Usually it doesn’t work.

Write down things you have to do, and decide what you have to do now and what you can postpone for a later time period.
