My Starting the Semester Tips

Here are some organizational tips I have to help make your semesters as smooth as possible!

1. Never try and squeeze all of your work into one day: It's really easy to lose track of time during the week. I am a clear victim of this as it happens in my life constantly. It's easy to comfort yourself and keep repeating the idea of doing it tomorrow. In doing this, it causes for a massive pileup at the end of the week and one is bound to be stressed out. Save yourself the trouble and space out your work.

2. Don't skip an assignment with a lack of a justifiable reason: This will do nothing but create bad habits. In dong this, you are promoting this action to happen again. It's completely understandable if you have a decent amount of extra credit built up and you can afford to skip an assignment. However, skipping several assignments may cause a snowball effect and these points add up faster than one may think.

3. Don't overwork yourself: This might be the most important idea to take from this post. There is absolutely no need to completely overwork yourself. If you are feeling stressed, take an hour long break. Get something to eat, drink, or go walk around. This will help you escape the trance state you may have been in due to hours upon hours of working.
