Calendar Reflection

After completing my weekly calendar, I learned that I should have plenty of time to complete all of my coursework. For this class specifically, if I dedicate one hour a night to homework I can easily meet the weekly deadlines.

I seriously doubt that I will ever do it in such an effective manner. Two hours on Fridays and four on Saturdays is a lot more accurate.

I do plan on picking up a couple clubs and intramural sports though. Factoring that in, I will need to be more diligent about spreading out my work. Since my Tuesdays and Thursdays have significantly more classes than my Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays I will do what I can to spread out my coursework on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

EDIT:

After reading Sam's and Evan's posts on time management I realized I need to be more on top of planning time to work. Both of these posts had great plans laid out to more effectively use their time. I should add similar structure to my life to ensure I get everything done in a timely manner. Buying a weekly planner or calendar would be a great way to start planning my days more effectively.

  1. I also have a lot of time to focus on my coursework and plan to spend at least an hour a night working on English. Try to fit even 15 minutes in a day during the week to complete a few parts of the assignment so that it does not take your Fridays and Saturdays. I hope you find the time after all your activities.

  2. Coming from someone who is really busy and doesn't have a lot of free time, don't put things off. Calenders like these can be very beneficial because they can show us how much time we don't have. But, when we see that we have lots of extra time, people (at least I do) tend to push things off thinking "they have time." So even though you think you have a lot of time, get things done early! Then you don't have to worry about them, and you don't push it off to where you have to rush it because you waited to long.
