making better use of my time
I chose to read the article under "time" called "Some hints on planning a better study schedule." It's not that I am unable to get work done on time, but more that I waste a lot of time before actually working. Since the swimming season has recently ended, I overestimate how much time I actually have in order to complete assignments... so I thought it might be useful to learn how to manage my time more efficiently. Some useful tips I learned: 1) Study at a regular time and at a regular place-- establishing habits saves time! 2) Utilize odd hours during the day for studying-- especially useful for me since I commute and often have downtime between classes. and 3) Study as soon after your lecture as possible-- that way you will spend less time trying to re-learn everything!
So yes, I hope this helps those of you who waste as much time as I do!
