My Dog Ate My Homework?

I know one of the things I say all the time is, "I don't have time." After seeing this quote, I never realized how that really sounds. So how do you manage your time wisely and stay productive? Follow these easy steps!

Establish a routine 
Try to do things around the same time everyday. Set aside time to complete the tasks you have to do.

Be organized
Plan out your day so that you don't forget to do anything.

Make your deadlines
Make your own deadlines for things. When planning your day, set time limits when you want things done. Don't procrastinate.

Take breaks 
Your mind works better if you take small breaks between work periods. It refreshes your brain and helps you from getting tired faster.

Stay motivated
Find a way to keep yourself motivated. Some people listen to music while they complete work, while others will reward themselves for staying on task.

Know yourself 
Don't push yourself too much. Know your limits.

Let's make this week a productive week and stop saying, "I don't have time." 

Hard Work Vs. Regret

As we approach the end of midterms week, I know that everyone is happy that the stress is over! Midterms week is one of the most challenging weeks in college. It seems like the workload never ends! Sometimes we just want to give up. I know I have been in that situation many times. Why have I never given up though? What stops me from giving up? One thing that keeps me pushing is my goals. I know where I want to be in life and I just keep that image in my mind. 

When I look at this quote, it really makes me think. My answer to this question would be the pain of regret. I never want to regret a situation that I had complete control over. Looking at this quote makes all our hard work not seem that big because the fear of regret affects us more.
