Time Management

I'd like to apologise for the recent lack of blog posts, shamefully this is due to my horrific ability to procrastinate. my favourite things to do whilst procrastinating are listening to music, singing along loudly to music to annoy my housemates and fighting an endless battle with the ridiculously slow university Internet system. anyway, in lieu of any further procrastination, including in this blog, I would like to get on to talking about the subject for today's blog, effective time management. to manage your time wisely first write a list, don't just put massive tasks on this list because if you don't accomplish them after a while you risk becoming dissatisfied with your progress and giving up, so break down your tasks into smaller tasks and put some less taxing things on your list such as taking the time to sing to your favourite song or bake that cake you've been meaning to make. further tips on time management will be coming your way when I figure them out for myself! this blog comes to you today with the encouragement of my friend Joe (whose Twitter is @Joe_Eastwood ) he is a fellow writer and you can find a link to his blog in the blogs that I'm following I urge you to go and read his blogs, they're much better than mine and far longer established. In the meantime I leave you with the picture attached to this blog.
