Tip of the Week - August 27, 2012

For students with the graduation year of:

2008-2012: Use daily, weekly, and semester calendars to keep track of appointments and assignments and to plan how you want to use your time.  Effective time managers don't rely on their memories to hold important dates and times. They write them down! This clears their brain for more important tasks like thinking.  Combine due dates for several major projects on a long-term calendar to help set and accomplish goals, plan and use time wisely, and avoid procrastination or last minute panics.

2015 & Above: Take responsibility for yourself.  Recognize that in order to succeed you need to make decisions about your priorities, your time, and your resources.  Center yourself around your values and principles.  Don’t let friends and acquaintances dictate what you consider important.
