A management dilemma that I am facing, one that my mother consistently complains about and one that I am sure many of my peers can reflect on, is how to efficiently and effectively manage my time. It may be hypocritical of myself to say that I believe that I am a very orderly and responsible person. I truly think of myself as so because I usually plan out my week in advance. I have been doing this for many years and it all seemed to work out. I never had any problem with it. Until just recently, especially the last semester did I see myself not carrying out what I planned to do. I think one of the primary reasons is my circle of friends. I have been dedicating too much of my time to them.
I always tell myself that I will do such and such a thing at a certain time. I try to determine how long it would take and find some time to either study or spend some time with family, which are the two biggest complaints that my mother dishes out to me. For some reason, I am always busy. Prior to the beginning of the day, I find myself at ease, thinking that everything will go according to what I had planned. However, it does not seem to work out. The thing that astonishes me is that I can't figure out why it went wrong. I don't really know what to do. I guess it's just forgetting and being lazy, but hopefully I'll be able to fix it soon.
