time strategies

In my opinion, time management can make or break your college experience. I remember coming into college nervous for pulling all-nighters of studying and stressing only to find out that that doesn't have to be the case at all. Entering my senior year at OU, I have yet to pull an all-nighter...for studying.

The first article I read over time management tonight was: The Myth of Too Busy as I am a pro at "overbooking" myself. I am glad this one stood out to me as it made me reconsider how to look at my schedule. I also am guilty of always talking about how "busy" I am and I am going to make it a going to start saying that I am prioritizing my time in order to reach my goals instead. 

The next article I read was: Increase Your Creative Output With 14 Time Management Tips Just For Creatives. I was drawn in with the first tip regarding managing your energy as well as your time. I definitely do not manage my energy as well as I could be. I have bursts of energy when I don't need them that leave me feeling groggy when I need to be alert. I am excited to try adding energy output estimates to my daily task check sheets.
