Time..Managed.

Let’s set the scene:

            You walk into your English class, sit down, and prepare to take notes, only to realize you had a three-page literacy narrative due that day, which you completely forgot about and never wrote.

Yeah, it’s happened to all of us.  We over-schedule and lose track of tasks that we have to do (some people more than others.)  This isn’t just college kids, it’s everybody.  Teachers, businessmen, and parents.  Flashback to the episode of Full House were Jessie promises to bake Stephanie cookies for her bake sale, promises DJ he would coach her soccer game, promises Becky he would go to her cousins wedding, promises Danny he would fix his car, and promises Joey he would help him write a jingle…all in one day.  I’m sure most people aren’t that extreme about it, but that doesn’t hide the fact that America, as a whole needs to learn how to manage their time. 

After doing some research, I found that the Mayo Clinic developed their own list of time management tips.  I suggest checking out the link to look better at the article but here are a few tips that I felt were the most important:

Plan Each Day.

Prioritize Your Tasks.

Take The Time You Need To Do A Quality Job.

Practice The Ten Minute Rule.

Get Plenty Of Sleep.

Take A Break When Needed.
