When I think of time management I think of all the things I could have done if I had been given more time. While in secondary school you could say that your day was in some way 'planned' out for you, you had class at certain times throughout the day, break and lunchtime at the same time every day all year round. This prepared you for the outside world as some would say. When it came to exams and projects while in school I would always leave things to the last minute and it never worked out to my advantage, but yet some people say you work better under stress...I'm yet to find out !
As you grow up and start college and things become some what more serious then in Leaving Cert you begin to realise how precious time is and that managing it has to be done in the proper way so that it will benefit myself and others. Recently I was given as essay to do for disability studies and me being me I left it to the last minute and had the positive attitude that I would get it done...little did I know how much research let alone the writing it up that had to be done, there was a few all-nighters pulled that weekend and I learnt my lesson.
At the end of the day there is only 24 hours in a day and its how we use them that counts, subtract your recommended 8 hours sleep each night and your left with 16 hours and you will be amazed how fast time goes.
The video below shows you the effect of bad time management but in a funny humerus way :)
