The Myth of "Too Busy" by Tim Garhl

Grahl emphasized the idea that being busy doesn't necessarily contribute to productivity or achievement. It is crucial to differentiate between “priority” and being “too busy”. Once you label an activity as a priority, others will deem it as a choice you have made. Grahl further states how necessary it is to “cut out” unnecessary activities that are holding you back from achieving your goal. I found this to be especially very important.

Time Management

Based on my classes last semester, my biggest time challenges would be dedicating enough time for each class. I often feel that some classes are prioritized higher than others just because of the workload, and I want that to change. I do have a time management strategy that works for me. I try to be ahead of the game in all my classes, and I do that by finishing assignments by Wednesday of that week. I hope to continue and learn more ways to stay focused!
