I take time management very seriously. I read on the subject and take online courses to master the latest methods. When all my tasks are complete, I feel like a champion.
This year, there are more things to do. So I went in search of something newer, better. Timeboxing is regraded as the most useful skill. It helps you translate a to-do list into certain time on your calendar. In short, it gives you a plan for what to do and when.
Why organizing time in this way can help me improve our performance? Here are the reasons.
We all have to choose every day. With a timeboxed calendar, you don't need to make choices between tasks. This way, it creates more brain space for important work.
It enables us to wisely prioritize(优先处理). It is natural to pick tasks which need to be dealt with as soon as possible. A timeboxed calendar can help you decide those tasks wisely.
It avoids the "planning fallacy(谬误)." We may not realize how long the tasks will actually take and think we can get things done quickly. In fact, it usually takes three times longer to finish a task than we think it will.
Using a timeboxed calendar is a game changer for me. You can also turn your to-do tasks into achievements with it.
A. Finally, I found timeboxing. B. It saves the time and energy for choice. C. Then we can save lots of time to do other things. D. On a long to-do list, which task should we do first? E. Good time management gives me a sense of real satisfaction. F. Timeboxing helps you get better at predicting how long a task will take. |

As students, we have homework every day. Here is some advice for us to finish our homework well. Doing homework should be the first thing, and we should do our homework as soon as we get home. At the same time, it is fine to allow for a snack break and also for stretching(伸展) breaks. It is our duty to do our homework. Don't depend on our parents for help. Please try to find the answer by ourselves because we will learn much more in this way. When we have a question, especially something about science or maths, don't always turn to smart phone, iPad or computer! We need to think hard, then try to solve the problems by ourselves. We can also look at our textbooks carefully, or use some tool books. We can't learn anything without thinking. |
Finally, while doing homework, don't think about or do other things. Keep working. We can set a time limit(限制) to help with this. Different ages decide different study time. 10-15 minutes is good for a child that is aged 6-8. A time of 20-30 minutes is right for a child aged9-12. Kids can keep studying for 30-45 minutes at the ages of 13-15. What's more, the ability to pay attention and stay on tasks also decides the study time. So it is natural that some kids may be not good at it. |
