| Have a daily manager and stick a schedule |
| Take advantage of 5-minute periods of time |
| Break assignments down into 15 to 30 minute segments |
| Many short study sessions are better that one large one |
| Schedule time for fun |
| Allow flexibility in your schedule |
| Set priorities and study the most important first |
| Set realistic goals |
| Take advantage of your best time of day for your most important work |
| Do not let the phone interrupt |
| Learn to say, "No." |
| Realize how you waste time and avoid these situations |
| Have and use a long term planner for more distant goals |
| Concentrate fully on the task at hand--write down distracting thoughts so that you may get back to them later when you have more time |
