There are so many articles out there on Time management that I find it ridiculous that I'm writing one for this platform. I mean, just google it and you'll get tons of examples with similar advice all over because these are effective and work over and over again. But hey, I'm gonna recreate the arcane advice and hope some of you benefit from it, so here we go. 

1. Rise and Shine...early:  

I used to roll my eyes when my parents told me to wake up early so I can get more done and be more healthy in general but turns out it is actually true. I'm shocked that my parents, with their more than 30 years of life experience ahead of me, gave me accurate life advice. I'm shocked, I tell you. 

Seriously though, wake up early, it is good for your health and waking up early means you get more stuff done throughout the day. You will even have the time to go to the gym! Now that's the real shock right there. 

2. Know Thy Task:  

Whenever you're asked for a task, make sure you do not agree to it right away unless it is extremely important. Promise to look into the matter and do it anyway, this will save your time and also the person who's asked you to do it. Know thy task, know what you're doing before you attempt to take it on. 

3. Prioritise: 

Of course, the above point would be crippled without remembering the fact that you need to be able to prioritise your work effectively. Trivial tasks seem easy to conquer but that'll just cause you to push back on important ones which will cause you to panic and not focus on it properly. 

Honestly I still struggle with this, the information age has brought with it too many distractions.  

4. Say no:  

Your time is more valuable than you let on. Learn to say no early in life, it will help you, trust me on this one. Girls know this better than anyone else. 

5. Take breaks.. 

...that don't turn into huge wastes of time. Once again, the Information Age is here to ruin us all by extending our breaks into extended sessions of stalking our exes on Instagram and getting into arguments on Facebook. Don't give in to the dopamine rush of social media. Fight back, because you are harder, better, faster, stronger. 

I might be listening to Daft Punk as I write this.
