Time Management
“They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.”
–Andy Warhol
Time is the abstract currency by which we measure progress and achievement. Unfortunately, its inherent limitations and linear nature frequently clash with our self-knowledge and expectations inhibiting our ability to channel it in service of our goals. As you begin this new academic year, reflect on your relationship with time.
What keeps you focused? Motivated? What distracts you? How do you organize your week? Track progress? Create space for self-care? What time management successes have you had? Challenges? How are your priorities/expectations/goals reflected in the way you use your time?
As you consider these questions, spend some time reviewing the linked articles below. These resources provide various frameworks for reflecting actively on your relationship with time and the impact this relationship has on day-to-day experiences while also outlining effective time management strategies that you can harness to support your success.
