Hello everybody,
It has been a while since I last posted (I’m sorry).
This week is reading week and I am really enjoying being
home and spending some much needed time with family, and hanging out with my
friends. I spent the last week of school before reading week doing lots of work
so I wouldn’t have to spend all this week doing work; but despite my efforts it
always seems like there is something else to do. Here are a few tips that to
manage your time well and get all of your work accomplished (ON TIME).
1.) Turn off your phone - I know that this is an obvious one
but actually following it is completely different. The next time you go to
study don’t take your phone and I assure you the amount that you accomplish
will be much more than if you were checking your phone.
2.) Reward yourself – Personally I find chocolate effective,
I will tell myself that I can have a piece when I finish a chapter of my
textbook readings. Splitting up the work into smaller pieces makes it seem more
manageable… and you get a snack!
3.) Take breaks with friends- Even fifteen minutes will make
you feel refreshed (and wake you up on those days you just can’t seem to stay
awake while working). Let’s face it spending time with friends is awesome.
4.) Make a to do list- Just about every day I write down or
make a memo on my phone of all the things I want to accomplish in the day. It
will help you prioritize what you need to work on, and it feels really good to
cross things off your list.
5.) Breath- Accept that sometimes you aren’t always going to
be ahead of the game. You won’t always have your readings done ahead of time
(or even at all). But no matter how busy you may feel there is always time to
sit down and get things done, don’t stress out just keep working!
