Tip on How to be Organized

  1. In order to keep all your dates and parties, write them down on a calendar with the beginning time of the event.
  2. When studying, have a set time and place. It is recommended to study where one will be less distracted from others. It is also recommended to study around one's obligations like work and attending class. Note: Studying should be one of your top priorities.
  3. Have a schedule set up for to keep your extra-curricular activities, and parties. This is to prevent from not having time for yourself and overworking yourself.
  4. It is highly recommended that you keep notes and papers separated by different classes you are taking. Have a separate notebook and folder to keep all your notes and papers together. Also keep your notes in some type of order. This is so you may easily reference your notes faster.
  5. If you have a hard time getting up in the morning, have all your items that you need for school ready. Also to make things go faster in the morning, have your outfit that you are planning to wear ready the night before. This will give you little bit more time for you to sleep and less time worrying where your stuff is and what to wear.
  6. Keep your keys, wallet and other things you need for the day by the door. This is to keep you from forgetting anything when you leave your house. Maybe keep a small basket or designated area to keep your keys and other things so you won't forget.
  7. Write a list of things you need to do. Prioritize things that need your attention that day compared to other things you can do tomorrow or later in the week.
  8. If you have a tendency to be a pack rat, keep a box or other containers to keep them in and not on the floor. If you like to keep your all of your school papers, keep them in a box. That way they are off the floor and all in one place and easy to find.
