Time Management

Summer is when I feel that time flies. By planning the day, I think we can find our time being used better. Also, time management can help reduce stress. When you have a set goal of what you need to accomplish for today, you can get rid of the stress that comes with leaving everything to the last minute. All it takes is a little bit of planning and effort. Click here for some tips.

Here are your check in questions for today:

What would I like to spend my time on? What do I end up spending my time on?
What is one area of my day that I feel productive? What are the times of day that I do feel unproductive?

Activities

Breaking up your studying

For me, a lot of stress comes from feeling my study time has gone wasted when I’m not very productive. In order to not waste a bunch of time on one task, taking breaks and learning how to study effectively can help reduce this stress.

Taking a break with meditation

Again, in order to make the most of your studying time, it’s important to reset when you need to to avoid burning out. Check out this list of meditation activities and exercises for when you need to take a break.
