Between classes and extra-curricular activities.
Between a 9 – 5 job and another part time job you do for side income.

Everyone can get easily overwhelmed when they are too busy. Therefore, we need to have a game plan ready to be stress – free, especially when you have a lot to do. You can get things done in a more efficient manner if you know how to prioritize.
Admit it, most of us usually just mentally list down what needs to be done the next day, because it’s easier that way.
Easier, maybe. Efficient? Definitely not.
Think about those times that you thought you have done everything on your to do list, but then realized you haven’t done the most important thing like, getting yourself a new toothbrush or return a parcel. Sound familiar? Exactly.

However, when you find ways to prioritize, you might find that some things are more important than others, and that some can be crossed off your list completely. It’s all about knowing what needs to be done and finding the most efficient way to do it.
