7 Steps

7 Steps to managing your time better

1.Being organized

Agenda book, calendar, binders, folders, tab dividers even a phone all helpful tools to stay organized.

2.Plan Ahead

There are always events going on around campus.  Check your avaliabilty ahead of time in case something pops up you want to do.

3. Prioritize

I treat all classes like they are the same whether a C is required to pass or not.  Although when it comes to assignments I try to look at whats do and get my main subjects out the way before I do my elective work.

4.Avoid Overload

Look at your schedule for next semester if you think you are taking to many credits you probably are.  Only take on what you can handle.

5.Study Techniques

Studying is not just looking in the book and reading.  Studying is doing practice problems, answering question anything to get you thinking.  Practicing study skills can help you prepare better for your test.

6. Flexible

When creating your schedule or looking at your schedule make sure you have some time aside to do extra things.  Or when you are leaving to go to class make sure you do not leave five minutes before class starts.  You never what what might happen.  You may realize you forgot your phone and have to run back and get it.  Or you make run into a few friends and want to chat.

7.Visualize

Don’t forget the big picture.  I am going to college because…………   Having a personal mission in mind do not worry about anyone else.  Not everyone has the same dream and aspirations in life.  Having a positive attitude will asure a great turn out.
