Planning Your Tasks

Planning Your Tasks

September 14, 2010  |  Free Stuff, General Tips, Self-Improvement  |  No Comments  |  Share

If you want to succeed in college you’ll need to know how to plan your tasks. Without proper planning, you’re wondering about without any proper direction. Always make sure you have all your upcoming tasks planned, in reality you won’t be able to plan for them all but the more you plan ahead the better. There’s an old saying that says; if you don’t plan for success you are planning for failure. There’s no middle ground!

If you’re looking for task managers to aide you in this affair we suggest you first:

1) Sign Up for our upcoming online study calendar
2) Read the article on how to make a task list
3) Immediately start taking action. Don’t sit around and hope for a better future, engage yourself to try to reach a better future. The more organized you get, the easier it become to study.

Try to start small and then work towards bigger and bigger tasks. You don’t want to loose the bigger picture while at the same time not avoiding the lesser tasks. Aiming towards moderation is aiming towards perfection.

That’s about it. If you truly want to change you’ll need to start actively working towards change and important step towards that is planning your tasks property. Until next time, au revoir!

Today I want to speak to you about a topic that was discussed in a course I took this summer at Gothenburg University (GU). The lecturer, a professor emeritus by the name of Guy Heyden is somewhat of an embodiment of the generalist concept. He’s been active in more fields than I can pronounce, spanning everything from pathology, anthropology, histology, dentistry to sociology and oral health. Today’s article stems from the lectures that he delivered at GU a few weeks ago. Read More

As human beings we are constantly in one learning process after the other. One of the most active period of learning came during our early childhood. A child learns thousands of different concepts, impressions and words in a matter of months. To replicate that period of learning isn’t really possible. But what we can do is try to rekindle that thirst for knowledge as much as possible. If you want to learn and understand the learning process you have to be willing to buckle up and get down to business. Read More
