I've always managed my time well throughout high school, but once I entered college I gained so much more freedom and time on my hands. I instantly lost all my time management skills and had to start all over. One thing that I never lost touch with is my organization skills. I ALWAYS keep an agenda on hand with all my homework, important dates, etc written down and in addition to that I use Google calendar to organize my days as well so that I can visually see it. However, upon reading these two articles, 3 Steps To Recapture Time and 4 Questions To Overcome Procrastination, I learned a couple new things. First off is that the first 15 minutes of my day is the most crucial and should be utilized to plan out my day and say no to the obstacles that stand in the way of achieving my goals. Another thing I learned is that once I get started with something it gets easier and easier especially when you get a good portion of the assignment done. Finding out what your biggest priorities are and breaking them down into smaller steps is something that can be very beneficial to my courses this semester and for my future.
