Often times, undergraduates get caught up with so many activities; academic, political, religious and social activities that they are still trying to make out time for but more activities keeps coming without notice. When caught-up with their project research; from choosing their undergraduate project topics to doing the actual research, students complain about having a lot to accomplish in a short time especially when overwhelmed.

If that’s you reading through, there are healthy habits you need to imbibe as an undergraduate discussed below for your digest and better time management.

Be a little more picky
When you have so much to do starring from your schedule, you may become totally unstable if you don’t take charge. How do you work that out? Just be a little pickier about what you do and what not to do. If going for a friend’s birthday party tonight will cut down on the time you need to write your undergraduate project research, then you have to choose between the party and the project research.

Doing a task half way without accomplishing it does not speak well of you; you don’t even derive any sort of satisfaction; it gets you more worked out, frustrated and discouraged. The message is simple, pick the task you do so you don’t accumulate more tasks than you can actually do per time.

Set priorities
Seems like they mean the same thing but not totally. Setting priorities make you set your activities and tasks in order of importance. This means that you will do the most important tasks first before others follow. That’s a cool way to accomplish much in a short time. As an undergraduate, we know you for making time tables; it is recommended that you also make a to-do list in order of preference to help you schedule and time yourself in your daily activities on campus and without.

Don’t wait to be told
Don’t wait till you loss out, you have to decide by yourself, discipline yourself and determine to follow the rules you have set for yourself. There are choices others make for you and there are some you must make. If it’s about time management, the choice is yours to make and it takes your decision, discipline and determination to make it work.
