High school, most people are in different clubs, extracurricular activity like orchestra, band and more. With school starting, many will be trying to find time into their busy life schedules and try hard to fit everything in. Being in extracurricular activities, going above and beyond means that it requires work and commitment. It is important to fulfill these commitments, but it’s not always easy to balance everything. To fit everything into your time, it is important to stay organized, know when things are due, and stay on top of things. An easy way to keep track of everything is to have a planner. Writing down when things are due helps not to forget the work that needs to be done by a certain time. It also encourages to finish things every time the planner is looked at. Also, do not develop bad habits like procrastinating. It will only add onto the stress and might even interfere with the quality of work. Make sure to complete work on time, and if there is anything that you are unsure about, don’t be afraid to ask others. Make sure to not accidentally sign up for too many things that are too hard to handle. At the beginning, it might be easy to think that joining a lot of extra activities are a good idea, and that you can handle it, but in the end, all the pressure might too hard on a person. Only do things that you can handle. Like many would agree, naps are truly amazing. Naps are so tempting after school, to just relax and give those tired eyelids what they deserve. Although naps are great, it is best not to take them after school. Try to do homework or work that needs to be done right after school, so that you can just go to sleep early. Try not to go on your bed after school in general until work is finished and you’re ready to go to bed. Time efficiency is everything. Why spend 2 hours on something when you can only spend 30 minutes on it? If you can multitask and kill two birds with one stone, do it! Free time in class? Catch up on work that needs to be done! Most importantly, make sure all the extracurricular activities that are done are enjoyable. What is the point of doing extracurricular activities and struggle to balance work when it’s terrible and miserable for you? Try to have fun and loosen up a little bit! Comments are closed.
