Time Strategies

When it comes to time management, I am not really the best. I tend to procrastinate majority of the time. Sometimes I tend to finish my work early, so I can be calm, but that's only when I am motivated to do so. I do not do calendars, however I have sticky notes on my laptop, where I write out all the tasks I have to complete for each class and that really helps me keep track of all the things that I have to do. I get distracted easily while working, especially if I am working in a room full of people that keep talking. This semester, my small goal is to stay away from distraction especially when I have to get things done. I read Four Questions to Help You Overcome Procrastination by Peter Banerjea and 11 ways unsuccessful people mismanage their time by Áine Cain. Both of the articles helped me come up with strategies to make sure I do not over procrastinate. One of the best thing, I learned was to keep schedule of weekend as well with weekdays. Also, to get little bit done if you do not have time like going to gym. I usually go to gym five days a week, but this week I was only able to go two days due to work and classes, but they suggest to do like 15-20 min of workout at home before waking up or going to bed to feel accomplished, which might be a good idea for me to try out on the days I am not able to go to gym. I hope this semester, I keep up with all my to do tasks on stickies but also try a new thing like planning out each day. I hope to stay on top of all my classes and also other work outside school with the schedule I create.
