Time Management

My time is valuable, as is everybody else’s and so it is important to find a way to manage your time properly. When I started college I found myself with so much to do and not much time to do it in. There was a stage where I had 3 assignments due in close together and the time pressure was mounting up. I soon realised I had to manage my time effectively in order to get everything I needed to do, done.

Here are a few tips I found helpful for me;

1. Write a list of all tasks to be complete
2. Prioritise tasks
3. Break down tasks into smaller parts. If something is broken down it can be easier to complete
4.  Use technology to help you if you need to.
5. Ask for help if you need it, the less time you spend confused about your tasks the better!
6. Check tasks off your list as you complete them, visualising what you have finished can really help see how much you have completed.

These tips worked for me but as everybody does things differently it is important for you to find your own way of managing your time properly.

The internet is a great source of information about time management. YouTube in particular has a number of useful videos on the subject, here is the one I found to be most useful.
