Being organized isn't hard, but it is a skill that needs to be developed and practiced.
Being organized makes your day run smoother and it saves you time. It also helps you feel like you are in control and on top of things.
Being organized will not only make you a better student, it will help you succeed in your career, and in life.
1. Set a schedule and stick to it. Setting a schedule is helpful in a routine. Make a To Do list. Put the most important tasks at the top of the list. If you have a lot to do, prioritize the items on your list to ensure that the most important things get done.
2. Create an educational space. Your study space should be comfortable, quiet, well-lit, and have a surface for writing. Equip your study area with everything you need (paper, pencils, pens, etc.).
3. Limit screen time. Start by setting some ground rules for yourself. Allow yourself to only use technology for an amount of time, or at specific times of the day--or only after all of your responsibilities (chores, e Learning, etc.) are taken care of. That way, technology becomes kind of a reward.
