Reserve Your Study Time

My neighbor had a problem this weekend. She had planned to hold a garage sale for weeks, and she set aside time Friday night and Saturday morning to set it up and manage the whole affair. The problem was she needed the help of her son to carry it off. That really was a problem, because he had planned to spend the same time studying for finals.

If you have a big project to work on or a few finals to prepare for in the coming week or so, don't assume that your time is all your own. There are many things that can pop up and require a few hours of your time. Sometimes we just don't have time to give.

Plan ahead and reserve a time that you need to spend on school work. Mark it on your family's calendar and inform every that this is your time. Don't get caught up in a time crunch that causes stress and worry for everybody!
