KNOW YOUR HABITS
The first step to manage better time is to get to know your habits. Make a schedule of how your days look like, and record the time you waste in each activity. After doing step number one, you need to look which are the activities that drag the most time of your day... the ones that waste the most.

PRIORITIZEIt is of extreme importance that you prioritize your assignments. The most important or difficult tasks are meant to be done first, and the easiest ones are going to be last. When doing your assignments you need to be a 100% concentrated in order to finish efficiently the tasks. This means that any type of distraction needs to be avoided, including cell-phones; one of the mayor distractors.
It is important to postpone unecessary activities until the work that you are doing is done. If the work is done in the stipulated time, the other activities will be more fun to do because you are not stressed and can enjoy them without worries. 1. Do prioritization Schedules 2.
