attn: josh or brad.....thanks

My time is pretty much in a routine sort of form, so I will talk about my schedule. I have my day set so that it follows along how much study time I will actually need. Basically, my time schedule is set and I know it for a week in advance so this helps a lot in keeping on track and staying organized. It starts out with school in the earlier part of the day and work for the remainder, with just enough time to study before and after as well as hit the gym in between my classes and work. On a day where I need more time for studies and homework, I can run my schedule where I will have somewhere between five to six hours, depending on what I do after work and also waking up a little early for morning study time. And also I see that if an excessive amount of study time is needed then I could cut out the gym for a day and give myself another hour or so of study time. The other route is where I do what I want to after work, rather then going home, and hit the study before school the next morning and still have about three hours to study; if a shorter amount of time is needed. My dad has always made me be on a time schedule since I was young, with our motocross racing; the training, and bike maintenance to keep everything flowing. So seeing myself now how I manage my time, I would have to say it has stuck with me and that’s how I run along with my life.

Zack,

The assignment for the time managment paragraph calls for four things, each of which needs to be addressed as specifically as possible: what you can cut or reduce from your schedule, why you can cut or reduce this, how much time it will provide you, and what you will do with that newly realized time.

For instance, maybe you work 35 hours a week now, but don't need as much money as you do, so you can afford to cut down to 25 hours a week. The first what is work that can be reduced. Second, you can do that because you are making enough money to keep a roof over your head and food on the table and the cable and phone running, plus an occasional night out for fun (or whatever). You have now realized 10 hours a week that you can use for something other than work. Of course, Josh and I would suggest you use it for school work, for homework and study. But how you use it depends. Perhaps you cut two hours a day from your job, so you have two hours more five days a week. Or maybe you cut one seven hour work day, or a 10 hour work day. Then you would have to look at that particular day to see how you can use it to your advantage.

Right now the paragraph needs specific examples. Everything is discussed in generalities. Without specifics, the paragraph can't clearly spell out the point, nor can it be used to help you better see how you manage your time. Bradley
