In the span of two weeks I have realized two things. One, I eat pizza too much, and two, I tend to manage my time quite efficiently. I don’t procrastinate and put off my homework assignments till last minute. Instead, I use my time wisely between school and practice to finish my assignments and study. Although, I did find “hidden time” that I never knew I had. For example, After a while of doing homework, I tend to give up and watch Netflix to give me a break from the work. When instead, I could’ve spent my time continuing my homework assignments. I find myself stressed out at times because I think I have too many tasks on my plate. But the time management project actually showed me that I had enough time to complete all my tasks. I plan …show more content…
I value being successful, and in order to be successful I have to keep my priorities straight. I keep schooling first along with my family, then come my friends and social life. While they are all important to me and they all must be thought of, I also have to think of my own personal health. In the time management project I realized that I tend to eat a lot of pizza and I eat more snacks than full meals, but I end up balancing it out by working out. I have soccer practice every night for about two hours and that helps me stay in shape. Even after the soccer season I try to go to the gym and workout so I can maintain my personal health. My personal health is one of my values that tend to be forgotten about at times because I get caught up in other activities. Although during this project I realized that without soccer my personal health goals would not be achieved. If I had to do anything to improve on my time management it would be sleeping less when I could use that time for more important things.

I only need about 7 or 8 hours to be able to fully function throughout the day so the extra 2 or 3 hours could be used for something more important. In conclusion, the project has shown me how I could improve on my time management skills, and it also showed me what time management skills were

There are a lot of actions I could take to improve my time management. I could turn off my phone to remove the possibility of distraction. When family or friends invite me to go somewhere, I should go instead of passing up the opportunity. If there happens to be any free time, that should be used to study or train...not sitting on my phone. In a way, I can connect to Tom Benecke because we don’t value the things that are important to us, but we should. Time management makes us well-rounded individuals and more productive as a whole in

I work in the day and attend school in the evening so it is critical for me to know how to manage my time effecteively. However my workload at work had became extremely unpredictable and with the weekly assignments for the FOUN1019 course it was very difficult for me to manage my time. I usually create a list of task I have to complete with the date it needs to be completed, then work on them individually to meet the due date. I realised this alone was not a very effective method for completing my assignment or managing time because I did not consider the preparation some of the task required.

Time management cause major stress because half of the time it feels like there is not enough time to do anything that I enjoy or things that need to be done. I try to manage my time. The more I try to manage my time wisely I get stressed when things don 't get done according to the schedule or plan that I have planned for myself. Most people see it as controlling but I perceive it as working effectively. There are never enough hours in a day. Extracurricular activities, school, family, friends, church all take up time and it is very difficult to balance everything when there are only twenty-four hours in a day.
