Time Management Tip

To start, you need a monthly calendar where you record ALL of your appointments.  In order for it to work though, you need to refer to your calendar the night before.  As much as time management is something I strongly believe in and practice, I nearly missed an 8:40 a.m. apointment this morning.

 In general I don't make early morning medical appointments so I was fairly confident that my appointment wasn't until later in the day.  I am so glad that something compelled me to look at my calendar before going to bed or I might have had a charge for missing the appointment.

Time management is a critical part of being a good student.
