ADDITIONAL TIPS

-        ALTHOUGH WORKING AND GOING TO SCHOOL ITS CHALLENGING. IT CAN BE A REWARDING EXPERIENCE IF YOU USE SOME OF FORESIGHT. THESE TIPS CAN HELP YOU HANDLE THE SITUATIOM AND MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR TIME:

-          -        DISCUSS YOUR PLANS WITH YOUR FAMILY. BALANCING THE DEMANDS OF SCHOOL AND WORK IS EASIER WITH THEIR SUPPORT.

-          -        START SLOWLY; DON’T COMMIT TO WORK A LOT OF HOURS IMMEDIATELY.

-          -        AVOID TIME CONFLICTS BY PLANING YOUR CLASS AND WORK SCHEDULES AS FAR AHEAD TIME POSSIBLE.

-          -        USE YOUR TIME EFFICIENTLY. YOU CAN USE 10 MINS WAITING IN A LINE TO GO OVER A FEW PAFES OF ASSIGNED READING. IF YOUR JOB HAS A LOT OF DOWNTIME AND YOUR BOSS HAS NO OBJECTION, YOU CAN USE SLOW PERIODS TO DO SCHOOLWORK.

-          -         IF YOU COMMUTE TO YOUR JOB ON PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION, BRING YOUR SCHOOLWORK WITH YOU SO YOU CAN WORK ALONG THE WAY.

-           

-          -         BE FLEXIBLE AND WILLING TO MAKE SACRIFICES. YOU MAY HAVE TO CUT DOWN ON SOME OTHER THING YOU MIGHT LIKE TO DO BECAUSE OF YOUR SCHOOL AND WORK COMMITMENTS.

-           

-          -          IF YOU HAVE TOO MUCH ON YOUR PLATE, ADMIT IT. THEN CUT BACK AS NEEDED.

-           

-          -        SCHEDULE RELAXATION. EVERYONE NEEDS SOME DOWN TIME TO STAY HAPPY AND HEALTHY
