Review Audit
From the audit, there are chances that I think I have not wasted any time, yet the daily activates could sometimes be of no importance. Such activities include the deep and regular conversation on social media could be beneficial, at the same time-consuming time. Sometimes, flexibility is an important factor to consider and save time. Creating time for oneself is also important, as it helps one to conduct self-assessments and progress monitoring. Prioritizing of the tasks is necessary and available; however, getting too comfortable could be risky too.
Lessons Learned:
From the above analysis, it can be concluded that prioritization of task is a very important factor. Having to complete two different tasks on a daily basis could be demanding at times, and hence achieving the maximum results from a situation of study and work could be risky at times. Therefore, for such cases, more errands need to be involved, as a strategy to minimize free time wastage. It is also important to use the people around to achieve what is needed, rather than committing all activities and tasks to one person.
