Time Management

Time Management

  • Make a "To Do" List Every Day. 

Put things that are most important at the top and do them first. And don't forget to reward yourself for your accomplishments.

  • Use Spare Minutes Wisely. 

Get some reading done on the bus ride home from school.

  • It's Okay to Say "No." 

If your boss asks you to work on a Thursday night and you have a final exam the next morning, realize that it's okay to say no. Keep your short- and long-term priorities in mind.

  • Find the Right Time. 

You'll work more efficiently if you figure out when you do your best work. For example, if your brain handles math better in the afternoon, don't wait to do it until late at night.

  • Review Your Notes Every Day. 

Reviewing your notes will reinforce learned materials. So you will need less time to study and prepared for any pop quiz.

Learn to Say “No”

Learn to Say “No”

  • Dedicated students and active members often overextend themselves in activities and outside commitments.

  • Successful students know how to say no in a way that is both graceful and humble. Saying something along the lines of “Thanks so much for thinking of me, but I don’t think I have the time to do justice to such an important role right now. Please do check in again". These statements lets people know that you appreciate the opportunity and might be available sometime in the future.

Peer Pressure

Peer Pressure

  • Peer pressure is when an individual feels the need to do the same things as people their own age or in their social group to be liked or accepted.
  • Why give in?: To gain that affinity and respect.
  • Negative peer pressures can make a person feel bad about the things they are doing.

What is positive peer pressure?

Positive peer pressure

  • Positive peer pressure is when someone’s peers influence them to do something positive or growth building.
  • For example, peers who are committed to doing well in school or at a sport can influence others to be more goal orientated. Similarly, peers who are kind, loyal or supportive influence others to be the same.

Advice from a peer is often more influential to a teenager than advice from an adult.
