Time Strategies

 Time Is Precious

Learning how to manage our time is an invaluable attribute to our academic and professional futures. Without developing time management and organization skills we will continually set ourselves up for failure. 

For me personally, I struggle with procrastination and in many cases will push of things until it comes down to the last minute to complete everything in a rush. This has proved to be a great detriment as my work does not always represent my best when it does quickly.

I learned a few tips to help combat against this by reading Caroline Webb's How to Beat Procrastination. 

One strategy I use quite often is that of writing checklists becuase there is something encouraging about being able to cross them off one by one until the whole list is done. It is very rewarding and helps to motivate me to get to work. It was cool to read the article The Psychology of Checklists by Lauren Marchese that gave some insight into why lists help to give us motivation.
