Balancing things is difficult especially when you have lots of thing to do. i create my time table, after my work i find time to reach old friend and my office mates then the next day i set time to study.i also spend time 15 to 30 mins of working out or walking and during Sundays I sleep a lot .

I struggle with this from time to time. For me, it is a matter of making myself a schedule. I have found that having it written down and keeping notifications in my phone are very helpful for me.

I try to make homework a priority which means that it is the first thing I do when I get home. If it is a bigger piece of work, I usually save it until I have more time. Even though socializing is a big part of human's life, I put it a little aside when I have too much school work and keep it for when I'm at school or another activity!

The best thing in this case is: planning properly. You can set yourself an agenda to be able to know what times you assign yourself for everything.

While completing homework is definitely a priority for me, other things, such as exercise, sleeping, and socializing are just as important. I make sure to give myself adequate time to finish whatever assignments I have (this means trying hard not to procrastinate!) so that I can enjoy socializing with friends or other activities that I like doing. I try to use those other activities as an incentive to get my work done. For example: Have I completed what I needed to today? If so, then I can go to the movies tonight. If not, then I haven't earned that free time. However, health above all else. Regardless of how much work I still have yet to finish, getting enough sleep and exercise is of utmost importance. Brains don't typically function well otherwise. So sometimes, sleeping early even if I still have work to do, is a lot more productive than staying up late to finish and can often provide me with new perspective and renewed energy in the morning.

I love making sure my diary is well ordered and layer out. I make sure that I put in all my appointments and schedules including how long I plan to study, workout or take time off. Although life gets a bit hectic and you do need a day off every now and again, by sticking to a schedule, I find that I stay more focused and don't procrastinate as much.

Homework takes a lot of time and energy to complete, particularly the higher up in education we go. Much like a job we would go to for set hours, study time can be scheduled as well and be held as just as important. Getting up to move around at least every 45 minutes can reduce the intensity of the study because it gives our minds a break and gives us time to get a drink, run to the restroom, grab a snack, or even take time to give attention to your pet. Having a list of what you need to do readily available that you can cross off would be helpful, or even a time schedule of all the events you do over the 24 hour day. These are just a couple thoughts that have worked for me during college, work and volunteer time.
