Time Strategies

-
I am usually that person that takes on a lot of the time so time management is crucial to me. Overall, this semester is a busy one so I am working to create a schedule that I can work with so that I can succeed. I read the article about setting small goals and I think that that is something that I am working on this semester. Previously, I have always thought long term and that can be slightly hard to fulfill when life happens and so many other responsibilities come up. This summer a lot piled up so I had to set up a schedule which I am currently trying to implement.
For this course I was able to spread the time out based on my class schedule. The days that I only have one class on campus which are Monday and Wednesday, I am able to put forth more time for assignments. Tuesdays and Thursdays are busier so I set aside a shorter amount of time because that is what I can be realistic about. I also love to say "I am too busy" but after reading the article, I realized that I just need to prioritize and things will become easier. This class makes it so easy to be successful but at the same time I realize it is up to me to fulfill my time commitments.

    Hi Catalina!
    I think we read the same article, and I'm with you 100%- it's so easy to default to saying "I'm busy" when time management can be particularly demanding. I love the graphic you chose- it definitely resonated with me. It's awesome that you're implementing a plan you've been working on since the summer- best of luck with the semester and everything you have going on!

My name is Catalina Cardenas. I am a Senior at the University of Oklahoma. My major is Health & Exercise Science along with pre-nursing. I am also in the National Guard so I have been looking into the PA program offered through the military. I spent nine months on deployment in Kuwait and it was definitely an experience. That slightly set me back in school so I am slowly started to catch up. The image above is a photo I took of a bazaar in Kuwait.   I started out as an education major since growing up that has always been a passion of mine but then I veered away from that after my first semester of college.   This past summer I took classes nonstop since the end of spring so I was not able to travel. I have a couple of trips planned throughout the rest of the semester and also at the very end. Every winter break I am able to travel back to visit family in Mexico so I will be visiting there also.  I was able to maintain a 3.5 GPA last semester so this semester I ...
