I’m someone that likes routine. Routine makes me comfortable and calm. It’s soothing. College is the first time in most people’s life (and last for some) where there is a lot of free time, and you may find yourself making poor choices on how to spend it.
Step one: Get a template
Print one and fill it in, use another website, ical, or google calendar.
Step two: Block out the classes
Plug in all your classes. You can choose to do this all in one color, or you can make each class a different color. It’s totally up to you. I prefer different colors.
Step three: Schedule your shifts.
If you work, plug in the times of your shifts.
Step 3: Schedule your bed time.
I know this seems insane, but you will feel so much better if you have a regular bed time and wake-up time. Trust me.
Step 4: If you are in any clubs, greek life, sports, etc. Put those in the schedule too.
Step 5: If you value your health, schedule time at least 3-4 days/week for a workout!
(Optional) Step 6: Schedule your study time. I personally prefer to just study whenever I have time, but if you have a really busy schedule, you might be better off scheduling set times.
(Optional) Step 7: Schedule meals and specific times to hang out with friends.
Congrats your schedule is done. Now you just have to stick with it!
