Now that we're in our second full week of school, the topic of time management seems like a good one to discuss. If you are a high school student, your school day is pretty well structured, and even after schools hours may already be filled with soccer practice, play practice, or dance rehearsals. Then there's the homework that needs to be completed, and oh, yeah, some time with your family and friends might be nice.
When you get to college, you may have only one or two classes day, so there will seem like there's plenty of time to get everything accomplished. But be careful! Sometimes having so much free time can backfire on you.
Regardless of how old you are, managing your time well will help you stay on task and still stay sane. The four great tips in this article can get you started on the right time management path, but I would add two more ideas to the mix: exercise and a healthy diet. Even a few minutes of exercise a day (maybe just a short walk around the block) plus not skipping meals can help you stay alert and focused on the tasks at hand.
So plan ahead! Use your calendar, and you might find yourself a lot more productive!
