quality level you want, and still leave time for the other activities in your
life. You'll be surprised at how much you can get done when you take stock of
your particular habits and needs, and find a study schedule that works for
you.

W.A.D.E. Tip
Write it down in your planner.
Add it up. Estimate how long each task will take. Break large projects
down into small parts for easier calculations.
Decide when you will do tasks. If overloaded, you can elect to delete,
delay, diminish, or delegate them into shorter tasks.
Execute your plan. Put your plan into action without being held back by procrastination or
perfectionism.
