Being able to see my week planned before my eyes really helps me organize my tasks and set achievable goals. A planner is a great tool for time management since it lets you break down big assignments into small tasks. For example, if you have to write an essay on a Friday, you can break down your task each day to maximize your productivity and creativity. For example, you can decide to make research for your essay on Monday, make an introduction and the first draft on Tuesday, write the main thesis statement on Wednesday and polish everything by Thursday! That leaves you with a large amount of time to study for other subjects and tackle other assignments. Also, a planner spread is the perfect way to incorporate your to-do lists in a realistic, academic environment. When you face all your mandatory obligations, you have to visually manage to write down your tasks on the space you have available – and that actually translates into real life. When I write lists in my planner, I like to use a bullet system and organize my tasks with symbols, using a triangle for priority tasks and a circle for non-priority tasks. A planner is also great to keep track of your goals. Writing weekly and monthly goals in your planner pages is instant motivation and works as an inspiration boost for the year ahead. Also, when looking back, you can keep track of all the goals you have achieved so far, which is a healthy way to keep motivated. Don’t forget to set achievable and realistic goals. Setting an unrealistic goal is one of the worst mistakes any student can make. Coordinating weekly, monthly and yearly overviews is also a good way to organize your academic life. I like to write in my monthly spreads my most important assignments as well as signalling specials weeks where I’m going to study a lot more, or I’m not going to be available for studying, which lets me organize my study sessions at a better pace. Finally, you need how to use your planner with intelligence while maximizing its abilities as an organization and productivity tool. First of all, you should write in your planner all of your unavoidable tasks – that means things like mandatory classes and things that you are determined to accomplish. From the moment you ink your assignements on your planner, you get a motivation boost to tackle them. That means that when you write with your best fineliners that you need to go the gym on tusdays and Fridays, you will feel much more inspired to do so. When you finish writing all the major tasks you can’t avoid, start to fill the time you have available with meaningful, productive activities. Instead of writing that you will “study” during the afternoon, describe all of the tasks you need to do, as detailed as possible. For example, write “study chapter 1”, solve exercises from page 45 or “create a comparison chart for chapter 12”. Don’t spend an entire week studying for the same class. Overlapping different subjects is great for your memory and is an instant flexibility boost for your mind. Don’t study for the same class more than 2 days straight, and, if possible, study a little bit for each class, every day. Try to schedule study sessions no longer than 45 to 1 hour min for each class and then mix and match them at your leisure. You can do a 45 min study session on maths, then one 45 min on English and another 45 min on math again, for example. +++++++++++++++++++++++++ SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL! -- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEHp_b02I0GvTYCBPX_0w1g?sub_confirmation=1 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Other videos you should check out: BINDER ORGANIZATION: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTOcjSgWeWU DIY PLANNER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6WsAJ5hObo TEXTBOOK STUDYING AND NOTE-TAKING: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XD3Dz2C12t8 40 STUDY TIPS AND TRICKS! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBt6UY9NONA +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA! ♥ TUMBLR: http://studywithalice.tumblr.com/ INSTAGRAM: https://instagram.com/alice_m_yt/ TWITTER: https://twitter.com/AliceM_YT PINTEREST: https://pt.pinterest.com/alicemqoliveira/ +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Thank you for watching! ♥ study tips; time management; time management tips; how to manage your time; time management tips; how to get organized; how to get organized; organization for college; get organized for college; get organized for school;
