Use a planner- 

It’s not a new idea. You have been taught how to use a calendar to set aside homework schedules from your primary years at school. Stick to them. Don’t make excuses. At high school, you have to go a step further and make plans that include study schedules, extra classes and tests. Make plans on how to go about your work and persist.

Be organised.

Watch the time

Expect problems. Know that time will not stop for you. Be ready earlier than the expected time.

Don’t keep people hanging. Keep appointments. If you can’t do something they are expecting you to do, let them know about it ahead of time. That’s not so much about productivity, just a grown-up thing to do.

Don’t complain.

When things are not going your way it’s natural to want to put the blame on someone. Your assumptions about it though, need not be always right. When you get irritated it only means that you have not factored in some hidden reasons for the same. Why it only means that you have not yet seen the larger picture!

Negative emotions can derail a situation so keep them on under control. Do not let anger or distress go overhead. No one appreciates an ugly turn of events. Worse, the flow of your work will most certainly get affected.

Be resourceful

Trust builds when people see what you do consistently, whether in the way you treat them or on how you get your work done. This goes a long way in your work relationships with teachers and peers. A dependable person is also a resourceful person. Human resources are just as important as those that are internet-based.

Challenge yourself

Don’t avoid discomfort. It would mean you cannot handle distress, which is not what is expected from a mature person. Leadership is when you do what no one is willing to do. Do more than what is expected.

The world needs people who can figure out new ways of getting work done. It’s the attitude that matters. Understanding you are needed will keep you from procrastinating. You might just end up being the right kind of person to fit into a global demand pool.
