Time

Between class, studying and everything else that needs to be done, time is a scarce commodity. Below are some time saving tips. Have an awesome time saver? Add yours.

While it's tempting to skip this step, an outline can making writing even a small paper a lot easier.

Don’t dump your mail on a table where it can pile up to an intimidating height – sort it as soon as you walk in the door.

Clipping an ongoing shopping list to the front of the refrigerator and writing items down as you go means you can now spend those extra minutes you used putting together a grocery list reviewing yo

These days it can be paper or electronic, but a datebook where you can put everything from birthdays to bills due can save you stress and hassle.

Invest in some washer-and-dryer safe mesh bags – one for lights and one for darks. Toss them straight in and save yourself the trouble of hauling and sorting.

Looking for extra time?

Sometimes we try to stretch ourselves too thin - go everywhere and participate in everything. Learn to say "no" to the nonessentials and let yourself have some breathing room.

You might see this under both time AND money.

Instead of cooking day-to-day, double a recipe that freezes well - like chili or spaghetti sauce - that you can use for several lunches or dinners.

Mornings are tough as it is. Make it easier on yourself by prepping things the night before - like making breakfast and lunches, packing bags, and organizing items.

Don't skimp on your health or your study habit - bring your school books or notes to read and review while you're on the treadmill.

Dashing out and back for one thing or another can eat up time quick. Carve out a block to get all of your running around don at once.

Get that one item that you’re dreading out of the way and crossed off the list so there’s even less of a reason to procrastinate.

Several similar kinds of items on your to-do list? Group it so you can get on a roll and take ‘em out all at once.

There are loads of free online typing games out there to help you hone your skills. Just think:

Crammed for time? Seal a sheet of paper of information you want to study in a large Ziploc bag and hang it on the side of your shower. Never choose between learning and hygiene again.

Without a charger, you have a set time limit (the life of the battery) for how long you can study. The set end point will make it easier to keep yourself focused.
