Time Management

 

Well, I was afraid I would have to talk about this at some point.
TIME MANAGEMENT

It’s something I like to pretend I’m good at, but I’m really not very good at it at all. I’m not even going to try and give my own advice this time. This is going to be purely taken from this website. Whoever wrote it seems to know what they are talking about.

Apparently the first and most important thing to do is prioritize your tasks. Well I can safely say that I suck at this. I got through five episodes of Community (it’s a good show!) before I even remembered that I should be doing blog posts. The best way to do this is to develop long term time management plans. This sounds like it would be a good idea, but my brain says that this is too much work.

When I was reading through the webpage the next bullet point raised my spirits a bit. A good method of time management is to complete the small tasks first. I’m actually really good at this because I have no issue getting small little tasks out of the way. It doesn’t take much time, so it doesn’t matter as much to me.

Another good time management skill is to break the boring stuff into sections. Quite frankly, I’d rather get it all out of the way as quickly as possible, which it what I usually try to do. Which completely counteracts the next good time management skill….

Don’t try to complete an entire assignment all at once. Oops.

So to sum this all up. I’m not very good with time management. Since I had an easy and laid back fifth year of high school, I think I lost the small fraction of time management skills that I possessed. Regardless, I still get everything (mostly) done on time. Now that I’ve started University, I REALLY should learn how to better manage my time. It’s not really going so well at the moment though. I guess that could be one of my goals for the year: work first – watch Community later.

White text for nice spacing. I really need to learn how to fix this.
