Time Strategies

Time management strategies are essential and extremely convenient for a busy college student. As everyone knows, time goes by really quick, especially if you're spending it on things that are not useful and productive. College costs a significant amount, so anything that would increase your success in graduating should be a priority. The time management schedule for the 6 weekly hours spent for this course is a great idea. I plan on using my planned schedule for this class throughout the term. 

In 3 Steps to Recapture Time, Joynicole Martinez emphasizes being able to say no. I think this was the most important point in the article. Being able to say no is really hard, especially when you actually really want to do something else other than your priorities. Joynicole also emphasizes on the first 15 minutes of the day. In order to manifest the day, you want to have a right and clear mind. Priorities like school already come with stress, any extra stress is undesirable and should be removed. 

In Four Questions to Help You Overcome Procrastination, Peter Banerjea gives advice and questions to ask oneself to prevent procrastination. My favorite point Peter made in his article would be the question, "what will go wrong if I don't do this now?" Procrastinating priorities can cause extra stress because it will be caught in the back of your head. This will prevent you from having a clear mind and it will get in the way of your already set schedule. Nonetheless, procrastinating is a bad habit to practice, especially if you're running on a schedule of a college student.

Welcome to my life! My name is AJ Hernandez and I am 21 years old. My birthday is November 21st and I was welcomed into this world in 1998. I was born and raised in a growing city, Tulsa, Oklahoma. I lived in the same house for all 21 years that I lived in Tulsa. Fun fact, I have the coordinates to that house tattooed on my right tricep. Another fun fact, my sister's also have the same tattoo! The most important thing in my life would be my family. Both of my parent's and both of my sister's have contributed significantly to my life and I will forever cherish them. I grew up playing soccer and I played throughout high school.  Fun fact, I am 6 foot 5 inches tall. Now, back to where we were. Soccer has to be the second most important thing to me because I have always been around it since a young age. I was raised as a Catholic and I continue with strong faith! Religion has always been important to me because it helps me have a clear mind. Nonetheless, I was raised to be disc

100 Word Dabble: No Questions Asked Please The officer tells the adolescent, "I'm assuming you're quiet because you know that your actions were incorrect and require consequences." The adolescent continues to look out the window reminiscing on the way to the local jail. "Do you feel cool now? Was it worth earning a few bucks just to end up locked in a cell?, says the officer. His partner chuckled softly. The adolescent looks at the officer with pain in his eyes and replies, "I rather risk being locked in a jail cell than seeing my siblings starve for another day. Don't judge someone without knowing their story." Two Sentence Story: The Process What's more important? The flower or the soil that grows it? Bibliography: One Way Flight by Benny the Butcher (feat.
