I personally love to make a schedule for myself and write down all the events that are coming up and what times and days I have them on, this way I can easily keep track of what's happening on which day and when I should go to sleep, exercise, do homework, make dinner and socialise.

I think the most important thing is to create a schedule and fully commit to each activity in its allotted time. It's such an easy concept but takes a big commitment. It also takes practice in turning off the endless questioning in your mind that makes you second guess what you're doing. Exercise and sleep both require routine - same time, every day. Once you get on that schedule, everything else will flow naturally. Homework takes discipline - start with chunks of time and reward yourself when you complete a given module. Socializing can actually be a good reward, if in fact it's rewarding for you. Be sure to celebrate moments of success with things that incentivize you to keep up the good work.

Setting schedules can really help. That way, you only spend a certain about of time working and you have a good balance. Try not to procrastinate when working and remove all distractions. Set yourself a target of how long each piece of work will take and follow it. Having a daily routine for exercise helps because daily exercise is important and how much exercise you choose to do is up to you. Try not to sleep in too much in the mornings because mornings are a good time to be productive. I like to try and do as much of my work in the morning as I can so in the afternoons I don’t have to worry about that

balancing schoolwork with all the other important things in your life is one of that hardest task students face - it's important to understand that social, personal, and academic growth are all very important during this time (which i'm sure feels to most more like a pressure than an aid) which is why it is important to learn to balance and keep each one in check, as to not overwhelm the others. making a schedule for the day can prevent you from both overworking and procrastinating; some people set times of the day to start certain tasks, others make checklists for the entirety of the day to tick off like a grocery list - choose a method that works for you :>

You can balance your homework with exercise, sleeping and socializing by setting up a timetable. Or you can also set reminders wherein you put yourself a prompt to complete a particular activity at a specified time limit. The reminders can be in any form, for example, alarm, sticky notes or writing up in the calender about the due dates which can be attached to the wall right infront of where you study in a way you can see that. Some people also get started with their homework as soon as they come home so that they can prioritize other activities later. Any of the way mentioned above is good enough as long as it fits you.
