I am currently taking six APs including a science course that is both strenuous and time-consuming. Apart from the APs, I also have many extra-curricular activities that are very time-consuming. Although I usually make decent grades, my grades have dropped somewhat recently as the workload has become literally impossible with my current time management skills. The problem is that when I get on the computer, lose complete track of time, and it seems as if my mental processing unit just goes completely blank. I go to facebook, email, pointless games, etc etc, and end up wasting hours upon hours of time. How can I get around this horrible problem? I feel as though the computer eats up time I desperately need to complete other activities. In addition, it’s becoming increasingly hard to do things without the computer as most school assignments revolve in their entirety around the computer and internet.
put sticky notes around your computer that remind you what you have to do and that remind you to not procrastinate
