Time Managment

"Time = life; therefore, waste your time and waste of your life, or master your time and master your life."  -Alan Lakein

           Time Management is a skill that is not just needed for college but beyond college. Many students are use to high school time management coming in to college. Once you get in college you realize that there are so many distraction between friends, internet, classes, clubs, sleeping and so many more opportunities. That your ways of using time management in high school needs to change in order to be successful in college. You also do not have your parents looking out for you and making sure you get your school work done. Many resort to ways to maintain all their assignments. Such as daily planner, to-do-list, calendar and other ways to jot down all assignments and class times to make sure you are not late or do not miss assignments. Time management is a hard skill to master but as long as you stay organized and know what is occurring in each class. "Planning out your semester will help you reduce confusion and anxiety be defining more exactly the demands you will face in each course. By anticipating and planning your approach to each course, you can plan your coping strategies" (http://www.arc.sbc.edu/timeplanning.html).  Time management becomes easier. Personally, time management is a hard skill but just trying to stay organized so far this year has helped me so much. Time management equals success because knowing how to manage your time and organization skills is the key. Organization skills help you to know what is due when. Knowing when things are due and setting aside the proper amount of time helps you to succeed in college.
