Time Management

Procrastination has always been a big problem for me. I've never managed my time very well. But the Fritter Finder strategy actually proved to be very helpful for me. What I first did was I gave each course I was taking a colour, and then I decided that I was going to work from 9:00 to 19:00 every day. So then I highlighted all my free time on the weekdays that were between those times, and I decided what subject I would be working on at each time. It made me realise that I actually had a lot of time to work that wasn't at night or during the weekends. I really started to become more organised, because I wasn't up working until 3:00 anymore in order to wake up for an 8:00 class. I started sleeping better. And I had more free time on the weekends to spend with friends, and more time for myself.

  1. Hey:) This is Jinny. Your Fritter Finder schedule looks very neat and easy to see your free time by coloring the blocks. I think you used your time very wisely this week! It's good to hear that you can have more free time to socialize on the weekends.

  2. I like how you color coded your free times. You are able to dedicate each of you free time to each of your courses. Because you have a lot of time in between your classes and you are using that time to study, I believe managing time for you isn't a problem. After your classes end, you will be able to do other things besides focusing on your academics.
