One Pimple is One Too Many - Time Management

Hey Everyone!

How are you?
This week I want to talk about something VERY important -- time management!
This will definitely help you the older you get -- junior high, high school, college and beyond!

What is time management?
Exactly how it sounds: learning how to manage your time!

It's easy to slack off and just ~go with the flow~ but when it comes to important things (like classes, homework and working) you need to have enough time to get where you need to go and to do what you need to do before the next thing on your agenda :)

First,
Write out what you have to do. Chronologically would be the best but you can write it in whatever way works for you.
Once you've written that all out, organize it in a way that you'll understand.
Then, you're all set!

But it's not enough just to make a schedule -- you have to stick to it!
That's where wise time management skills come in!

If you have from 4:00 - 4:30 to clean your room -- don't slack off or talk to your friends after school... get home and clean your room! Believe me, it feels SO GOOD to have checked something off your schedule!

An important sidenote that will sound like a contradiction:
while it's good to have a schedule, remember that if your schedule gets thrown off -- IT'S OKAY.
You don't live by your schedule, your schedule lives by you!
By all means, follow your schedule and what you need to do.
But if things don't go according to plan, it's okay! Take a deep breath and keep on going!

Remember, time management doesn't just benefit you but the people around you. When you care about your time, you'll be more conscientious of the time of the people around you! :)

Hope you have a great week!

Ariel <3
