How to Effectively Manage Time

General Tips: 

• Make a to-do list everyday. 
• Organize your tasks by how urgent it is. 
• Always start with your hardest task. 
• Set goals. 
• Make sure your goals arespecific, measurable,attainable, relevant and time-bound. 
• Be realistic about your goals. 
• Give yourself an incentive for achieving goals. 
• Set deadlines. Usually, I set my own deadline for many of my task 3-4 days before it really is due, giving me an ample amount of time in case of an emergency. 
• Break down large projects so they are more manageable and over a spread out. 
• Don’t over schedule things for yourself. Overfilling your plate will only stress you out more. Know your limit and how much you can handle. 
• Concentrate on one task at a time. 
• Take frequent breaks to prevent burn outs. 
• Keep a planner. Color code by class, work, personal so skimming it will be easier when you need to manage time.
• Create a time table. Designate a block of time for every task you do.
• Develop a daily schedule. 
• Schedule in study time. 
• Learn to be flexible. Not everything falls perfectly in place like you would like to, but that’s okay.
• Create “cushion time” to catch up with tasks that you’ve fallen behind on.  
• Use your time effectively.Although it is tempting to waste 4 hours on the internet, try to limit yourself to 1 hour of time on the internet not related to studies. 
• Turn off your phone when you are studying.
