How to Manage Your Time Effectively

Every Sunday, I make a timetable of the week where I start with the classes I always have, and then add the new things that are just for that specific week. It's helpful to see the week mapped out so you know exactly what you're doing at each hour.

A good way to do this is by having a whiteboard in your room. Buy some different colored pens and organize it by color with uni work being one color, extras being another etc. You should be able to find everything you need for this at a good stationery shop.

Whether this is physical, or digital, it's good to have something you can have on you all the time to note down new plans and plan your time. You can then transfer this information to your weekly timetable when you get home. Look in shops for a good academic planner. Bullet journaling is also a fun way to keep a diary. Here's an example of a page spread:

For important events and meetings, you can set reminders on your phone so that you definitely won't forget to go. This is good if you've accidentally left your diary and timetable at home.

Hopefully these tips will mean you can organize your time well and manage to do everything you want to do. Got any tips of your own? Let us know in the comments below.
