I have to say from working this first week with school, really getting things in control when it comes to time management can be extremely difficult. I’m not saying that I cannot do it, but I have to say that it is extremely difficult. Between the classes, the attempted social life, and the websites, it really can be difficult. But, there is a cure for this and I am beginning to come to the conclusion on what that cure is. Before I mention that, though, let me just say that things are beginning to look up despite the overload of work, so I am getting excited.

But, if I look at it, I realize two things: the first is that I fool around a lot on the internet and the second is that I get distracted in my dorm room. When I say that I fool around a lot, what I mean is that I go to DigitalPoint, read all these different blogs, check my earnings, go back to DigitalPoint, and the truth is, it gets really hectic and I tend to neglect my blog posts which is the majority of my work. Now, in the dorm room as I write this post, there is South Park playing. It is giving me a headache trying to focus on this rather than watch. The point is this: if I were to find a better place to work, I may be able to get more work done.

Time management is extremely difficult. It can be difficult to get things going if there are distractions. But, on top of that, it can be even more difficult getting so much done if there are distractions, books that need reading, tests that need preparing for, and then your websites. There are a few ways to help this out. The first is to really use time stamps. If you have the time to do extra blog posts, try and do tomorrows. Use each available minute. Furthermore, if you can get your work done before fooling around, you’ll find more productivity. And finally, if you set up a schedule, you can really get things done. Running a web network, studying, and having a social life is difficult; however, it is possible if done right. It just requires discipline and that’s what I am learning.
