  1. What does everyone think about this list? I believe its a great idea and will help me. I actually do this already at my job just not as organized as this. I am actually going to keep some copies of this to see if it helps! Do yall agree?

  2. The list is a good idea. But only if it can be followed. Sometimes certain, unforseen, circumstances arise and you can't keep up with it. Such as someone gets sick, has to go to the hospital, or the car breaks down on the way home. It did help me realize some of my faults in my time management. It showed me that I "am" a procrastinator! So hopefully I get my act together and work on this better.

  3. I think that this list was a great idea. It was an easy way to organize my day and help me get everything I need accomplished. I had just enough time to do everything. It also helped me balance out my work load so that I could do a little work here and there, instead of all at once. In order to succeed using this list you would definitely have to be very focused and determined.

  4. This list is a good idea. I believe it could help you stay on track after using it for a while. I tried using it but I tend to procrastinate and wait till the last minute to do things. I think if I continued to use it then it might help keep me up to date on what is due.

  6. I agree with Elizabeth and Noel, I too am unorganized and tend to put things off until the last minute. That and along with helping with the election, I completely forgot all about this assignment. I have placed it on my mirror, so hopefully I can keep up with things.

  8. I use a calendar with everyhting on a monthly page, then detail on the daily page. I like the idea of it, but I can get myself going better with one book I always have. I work a crazy schedule, have kids, and grandkids; I have to minimize what I have to keep up with.

  9. I agree with the rest of the class it is a great idea to keep your self orginized and to keep a tight schedule so none of your work will be late. I also agree with Jacqueline. A calander book can come in handy alot, and with one book you can keep your whole schedule in one book and take it anywhere.

  10. Time management has always been a weak thing for me. Even though at the beginning of this course I was enlightened and invigorated to do better. Life has its curves bumps and bruises between injuries and all other kinds of crazy life situations I find myself late on yet another assignment. Prioritizing is easy but saying no to friends and family members often becomes hard. Especially in situations when they feel they need you and all your responsibilities can wait. Even though all these people were here before this class and will be there long after. Its very selfish of them to expect me to put my life on the back burner for them. All we can do is strive to be better making the list and prioritizing.

  11. Time management is one my many obstacles that I will over come. Working and going to school is going to get tough but I am going to get tougher. One way that I can do this is learning to manage my time better and learning to say no to family and friends in a kind way. This assignment is going to allow me to visualize and stick to my priorities. I know that unexpected incidents do happen but I am preparing myself for success. So therefore I must also be ready for the unexpected and not let that interfere with my priorities. Making a list is going to help me because I am motivated and destined to succeed!
