Time Management

IMPORTANT TIPS
to help your stretch time

Use Waiting Time

Think of the hours spent in lines, between classes, etc. Use this time to read a book, jot down ideas, etc.

Know Your Instructions

There is no bigger waste of time than following the wrong directions for an assignment. If you're not sure, ask your instructor.

Take Care Of Yourself

Proper exercise and nutrition help you stay physically fit and mentally alert. Make time for both! (Consult your physician before you start an exercise program)

Tackle Hard Subjects First

The feeling of achievement can give your day momentum. Build on success!

Don't Cram

It's ineffective and inefficient. Have an organized way to study for tests - and give yourself plenty of time!

Avoid Perfectionism

Unless perfection is called for, don't waste valuable time trying to make every project you do letter-perfect.

Plan Creative Time

Schedule time each day to do things that recharge your creative batteries or help put your life in perspective.

Don't Over commit

Don't spread yourself too thin. Commit yourself to only those activities you can manage in the time you have.
