Starting a business sometimes isn't the problem. Balancing it with studies always seems to be the stumbling block. Try this tips

1.Find a partner(s)
As nigerians will say ''chop alone, die alone'', this is partly true when you run a business alone. By partners, it also means employing your fellow school mates who are business minded. Remember, an employer always receive more than an employee.

Having a business partner will help reduce the workload. Your efficiency--when you divide your mechanical advantage by your velocity ratio, will be equal to 105%.

2. Multi-task yourself.
Starting a business in school will bring out the 'man' in you. You must be willing to be awake while others are sleeping. Multi tasking yourself also means managing your time judiciously. You should be able to do three things at a time. You can be eating and going through your notes. How's that?

3.Set course priority
Prioritize your courses. List your courses according to importance. Not every course has the same unit load. You must be able to sacrifice some lectures of those courses you know you can still do well by reading on your own.

Am not trying to say you should miss all your classes because of your business, sometimes the best time to do your business is evenings and during weekends.

4.Make good friends
Associate with positive minded people(most especially your course mates). Some people will do their best to bring you down or kill your dream. Make friends with those who believe you can make it, people who would love to see you grow-both academically and business wise. These people will put you through topics you were absent from.

5.Trust in God
The most important point. Trust in God. He is the only one that can guarantee your success in both business and studies--that's if you are hardworking. Commit your business and academics into his hand and he will lift you up.

Why not how balance a study and a girl friend.
