What sucks up your free time ?
Most Common Culprits Instant messaging / texting Constantly checking emails Long-term interruptions Multi-tasking Workspace / desk clutter Web-surfing beyond break time Social media Computer games
Procrastination: Defined as a tendency to put things offWriting a paper the night before it is dueCramming for a test instead of studying for it from

being proactive
Try to eliminate unnecessary or time-wasting tasks Learn to say ‘NO’ to people Work together with those around you Write tasks down on your own daily priority schedule
Priority / non-urgent / special notes Be realistic (and compassionate) of what you can do Wear a watch or carry your cell phone so that you are
