I like using Gmail Tasks because it’s simple and shows up on my Google Calendar, but Thomas likes to use Todoist. (More on that in Tip #2.) Add Tasks the Moment You Hear About ThemĪs soon as you hear about a new to-do, say an additional homework problem for your calculus class, add it to your to-do list or app. You can also break down any big projects or exam revisions into smaller chunks that you can work on throughout the semester. This means adding any project due dates, quizzes, exams and assignments to your calendar.
Here are some tips: Fill Out Your Calendar Completely at the Beginning of the Semester Get Your Task Management System in Orderįirst, you need a good way to get things into your calendar so that tasks don’t occupy space in your brain, because you need it for other things – like guessing which guy the Bachelorette is going to give the final rose to. Here are 3 things I’ve learned that can help you stay ahead of you schoolwork and finish semesters, just as well as you start them. So how do you fight back and keep it all up until all of your finals are done? Pretty soon though, you start compromising here and there – until you find yourself sitting on the couch watching Korean dramas, when you should have been working on an essay that’s due in a few days. But since the semester is long, your motivation and organization starts to slip, little by little. You start out the semester feeling motivated when you’re not juggling a ton of balls, yet. You’ve probably experienced something similar. Needless to say, I never got that Sony PSP. So I started spending less time studying, and more time on things that mattered more at the moment – like playing Digimon World 2 on my Playstation One. Well, I worked hard enough and was on track… Until I hit the mid-term mark.īy this time, I was tired of studying all the time and not having enough time to play… And that Sony PSP seemed like a distant prize. This meant that I had to have a 95% overall average in all my classes for an entire school year. When I was in the 6th grade, back when the Sony PSP was still the bomb, my mom promised me that she would buy me one if I made the honour roll for my grade.
