13 Time Management Tips They Didn’t Teach You About in School
Time management is the act of planning and exercising control over the amount of time and attention you spend on specific activities in order to increase effectiveness, efficiency, and productivity. As a college student, you are probably juggling coursework in several different classes along with home and work duties. Time management is an important skill for you to develop as it will teach you ways to successfully balance all of your responsibilities.
1. Use a calendar for appointments, due dates, etc.
2. Use a daily/weekly “To Do” list. Write down “To Do’s” immediately.
3. Be aware of your management of time. Keep a time log for one week.
4. “Divide and Conquer” principle. Divide your large projects into smaller segments.
5. Notice how others misuse your time (time bandits). Learn to say no.
6. Conquer procrastination.
7. Utilize waiting time or “dead time”. (e.g. time between classes)
8. Build a study plan and know your priorities.
9. Avoid scheduling “marathon” study sessions.
10. Use a regular study area (away from distractions).
11. Balance time in all areas. “All work, no play, makes Jack a dull boy.” “All play, no work, makes Jack flunk out.”
12. Learn to take good notes.
-- Dr. Val McLean, Allen
