Umm as told by the facts that it is 1am and I am doing this blog post I am going to go ahead and say yes I have time management problems. There are a few things at lay here. The first is that I am defintely overextended. I enjoy being involved in a number of things but I also know how hard that is on my school work. My priorities are often not in the correct order and it is because I have so many things on my plate I get confused as to what should come first.
The second problem I have is that I have a lack of motivation when it comes to school work. When I cannot find a personal connection to something I can convince myself I don't want to do it. I am often frustrated with myself for not doing stuff early and not prioritizing but then come next time I do the same thing. It is something I will still be working on, most likely forever…
I know that in order to help these problems I need to work on the art of saying no! It is hard for me to say no because I want to do things so I know they will be done to my liking but I need to trust others. Once I have less on my plate I think I won't be so confused about my priorities. If I start getting my priorities in order I can make a to do list and check things off as they get done. After I make the to do list the only other thing I struggle with is allotting enough time to do each task. I sometimes underestimate and if I just did things early then underestimation of time wouldn't be a problem.
