Time management is very essential to us, depending on how your time is manage it affect everything happens later on. Finishing your task early or late can make a difference. If the task is finished on time then the free time can be done with anything, but if the task is finish in late then you have no free time but to suffer in depression and regrets. Now, because of the Covid-19 pandemic students are all taking online classes, this makes students less focus on what they should be, phones, computers and other electronic devices are in their hands so they can do what they want. This results some point in the future that students grade would rapidly decreased. The main point of time managements is self control, by meaning, take away the stuff that affects your focus on what you’re doing, bring it back when you’re done.

Personally I really have time management issue because I have to work from morning to 6 p.m. in the afternoon and I’m working 5 days a week so its hard for me to do homework from classes. What I can do the best is work on whatever i can when I’m done with my daily basis then work on homework or study. I have to take my phone away and turn off my computer at that point, because I know if both were on,then i can’t do anything and I won’t make any progress.

Time management

Time management is one of the most valuable skills that you can have if you are an online student.Due to Pandemic, when everything became online time management is very important for students. Especially if a student is adjusting to a full-time online program and balancing school and work, it is important to be able to manage time effectively. The better student manages his time, the easier it is to achieve his goals. Moreover, successful time management not only helps with your learning but can also make you more productive at work and in your personal life. There are some tips for online students who want to make effective time management.

4)         Block out distraction (such as social networks)

5)         Reward yourself when you accomplish your task

6)         Create balance between work and school 

I think that time management is the most important skill that person should have. By controlling his time and work and getting it done by time, a person can accomplish plans.

In my opinion, my time management skill is very poor. I have to learn how to fix my time management. In order to accomplish my classes, I have to find balance between my study and family. Most of the time I do my home assignments very late at night, that is not suitable for me and does not work. So, I want to fix my time management and learn to do my assignments on time. After reading this helpful article I will improve my time management and hopefully, I will be more successful in my study.

Time management has always been the number one priority to an everyday lifestyle with and without COVID-19, but ever since the pandemic hit, time management has been seriously important for both students and adults, especially those who attends both school and work. The main step into managing time is to one, plan ahead, make sure you have enough time to do the assignments and never wait to the last minute; two, don’t multitask, cellphones and anything in general like other assignments can be very distracting, so the best thing to do is get in the zone and focus on the bigger assignments first so it won’t be a hassle as the due date’s approaches. Steps three and four are similar, set up a space for yourself where you can block out distractions and focus on what needs to get done. Finally, reward yourself for all your completed assignments; create a balance; get use to the way you study and can get the work done. Lastly, get some rest, sleep is the number one rule above all, especially after a long day of hard work.

            Overall, time management is something I need to focus on myself. I am a huge procrastinator and I always have been. I’ve tried many different was to get myself so involved with work, I’ve tried timing myself, I’ve tried being in a quiet state, I’ve tried listening to calm music, nothing has ever seemed to work, I get distracted very quickly and I often hate it, but one thing I can say I do well is get my work done on time, unless I have a perfectly good reason as to why it’s late.   

Time management helps people to finish their task in time.  Time management encourages students to stay focused on one assignment at a time. Keeping the destruction away helps students to do the best work done at a shorter period of time. It is also important to reward yourself when you finish your assignment to avoid depression. It will also help to keep balance between study and other activities. Because of the pandemic all the college classes are online so it is important for those who are working and studying full time to create a schedule and try to follow them to stay focused and to reach their ultimate goal.

I don’t have any fixed schedule for my study, which I like to fix. Because of this, I struggle to finish my homework on time, sometimes I have to study till late at night to finish the homework before the deadline. Till the end of the semester, I want to make a to-do list and I want to follow it. I think it will increase my time efficiency and also help me to balance in studies and work. Another biggest problem I am facing now is a distraction, right now cellphone is the biggest destruction. I spend a lot of the day on my cell phone just browsing. I am trying hard to find a way to keep it away at least when I am studying.
