Life Skills & Value Education – CLASS-VII – UNIT-1 Time Management

Proper time management skills are essential for middle schoolers to be successful. This is
a skill that is acquired at a young age. It helps to succeed all through our lives. Here are
some time management tips to help us learn this very important skill.
Create a Daily Schedule
● It is simple and effective.
● Understand how much time is available to you.
● Prioritise the tasks available to you.
● Make sure your schedule includes leisure time.
● Do not create an impractical schedule.
● Do remember that even the most simple activities like walking to or from home,
eating your lunch, etc., take time.
Create Good Study Habits
● Keep your study table neat, clean and without any distractions. No fancy stuff should
be placed on your table to distract you.
● Study at the same time every day, it will become your habit in a few days.
● Create a ‘To Do’ list and note all the dates for submitting the assignments and put a
tick ( ) as you complete them.

Set Your Priorities

• Plan your day as per your schedule.
• Do not postpone tasks for the last minute. You will always be tensed and stressed out knowing that you have pending work.

Follow Your Plan

• Do not get affected by the pace of your peers.
• Do not let your peers tell that you are overthinking and worrying about your schedule.
• Follow your goals diligently each day.

Avoid Overloading

• There must always be time for rest and relaxation in your schedule.
• Sleeping, eating, exercising, and socialising with friends and family is also important.
• Take short breaks during the study and work periods.

Plan and Fix

• Plan and fix a time for all the activities.
• Fix the duration for relaxation, sleeping and even playing outdoors.
• Pack your bag and prepare your uniform the night before. Last minute chores lead to stress for everyone.

Learn to Say No Sometimes there are things that we do not want to do. There is no harm in saying a firm No when you do not want to. Nobody can make you do things that you do not want to.
