Time management is not a skill with which you are just born. You must take deliberate steps to get better at this. Here are a few things you can do to help you stay organized and on track with your online high school work.
- Make weekly to-do lists
- Schedule everything (this takes practice)
- Use positive reinforcements to help reward yourself for good behavior.
- Set time limits for yourself. This means only working on a particular subject or project for one to three hours at a time and not letting yourself work beyond that.
- Do not allow yourself to procrastinate.
- Realize you are not perfect, and you will not always be able to stick to your schedule.
If you try to implement some of the above suggestions into your everyday routine, over time, you will find that these tasks become second nature to you, and you will find it easier to manage your time like a pro and with time management comes self-discipline.
