Sorry! You can't have your cake and eat it too. You can'\ t expect to be able to play video games 60 hours a week, hang out with friends 60 hours a week, study 60 hours a week so you ace your classes and sleep too. There just aren't enough hours in the day. You're going to have to make some tough choices about h\ ow you spend your time. The goal of this form is to help you be more intentional about how you spend your time. Don't allow whimsy, your moods, your circumstances, your friends, or even your classes to *consistently* dictate the way you spend you\ r time. Do you have well-defined priorities in your life that guide your decisions? Instructions: 1\) This form should be printed on legal size paper \(8.5" by 14"\). 2\) Choose a typical week during which to audit you\ r time. Don't choose the first or last weeks of the semester because they probably aren't representative of the rest of the semester. 3\) Be disciplined about filling out this form. Make sure you write things down before you forget. If you don't \ have enough self-discipline, get friend to do this as well so that you can encourage and check-up on one another. 4\) How much detail to include on this form is up to you. Probably anything that takes you more than 15 minutes should be written on\ this form. 5\) Ask yourself about the decision processes you are using to spend your time. What led you to decide to spend your time the way that you did? 6\) At the end of the week, try categorizing your time and adding it up. Are ther\ e any surprises? If there are, then that means you need to re-evaluate your priorities or examine your decision making process. IMPORTANT: If you truly find you don't have enough hours in the week to keep up with your schoolwork to your satisfact\ ion, then you need to consider your point-to-time or knowledge-to-time ratio. The law of diminishing returns applies to homework assignments--if you spend 5 hours on an assignment, probably the last hour earned you the least number of points for that assi\ gnment. Of course, it's not good to focus too much on grades or points, but the general principle is that if you have a scarce number of hours, you should optimize your time so as to maximize your learning. Email me \(dyong@hmc.edu\) and let me \ know what happens and whether this form has helped you.
