For years, you kept telling the adults around you not to treat you like a little kidwell, congratulations, it looks like they finally listened! Between chores, homework, sports, and activities, its clear that your parents, teachers, and c
2、oaches expect more from you today than ever before. And all those new responsibilities can leave you feeling stressed out2. maybe even wishing you could be a little kid again! So does growing up really have to be like this? No way! Keep reading, because help is here.Item 1: OrganizationDo you groan3
3、 when you hear the words “get organized”? Many people tremble at the thought of organization, fearing itll just bog them down4 with pointless5 extra work. So instead they end up searching for clothes or papers. Or they waste precious homework time phoning classmates to get the assignments theyve los
4、t. In fact, being disorganized is the most pointless waste of time!But how do you turn over a new leaf6 if organization just doesnt come naturally? Keep it simple: First, have a place for everything. Decide where youre going to put each item you owna shelf for books, a drawer for winter sweaters, a
5、folder for your English papers. Then stick to it!Second, write down your to-do list items in a datebook. Keep that little book in your backpack or purse, and flip7 it open whenever you get a new assignment, an appointment, or any other task youre not going to do immediately. Write them all down! Tha
6、t way, youll be less likely to let something fall by the wayside8. Remember, the point is not to get obsessed with9 orderits to save yourself time and effort, so you have more of it to spend on doing the things you love!Item 2: Setting Priorities10Whats more important: school, chores, sports, or act
7、ivities? If you said theyre all important, youre absolutely right. You need all of these things for a balanced life. But if theyre all important, how do you choose what to do first?Three factors determine the order in which you should get things done. The first is urgency11. For example, practicing
8、violin is always important, but if your recital12 is next week, the need to practice gains urgency, too. The second factor is personal significancehow closely something relates to your own personal goals, passions, and dreams. For example, working on your science fair project is important because it
9、s for school. But if science is your passion, then that project could have high significance for you. Commitment13 to other people is the third factor, and that means taking into account14 how others are affected by your task. If you promised your mom youd clean your room tonight, you have a good re
10、ason to do it. (If you cant, you need to talk to her about it, because it affects her, too.)Its always tough to prioritize from among important things, but keeping these three factors in mind will help you manage your time more wisely.Item 3: Minding Those MinutesHow many four-year-olds do you know
11、who worry they wont have time to check off everything on their to-do list? Zero, right? Four-year-olds have no responsibilities yet. Their lives are nothing but free time. You, on the other hand, are a busy person juggling15 a stack of commitment, and that means you cant afford not to keep track of
12、time16.This doesnt mean you have to rope yourself to some strict schedule and never enjoy a free moment again. It just means you need to block out17 enough time to complete the items on your list. To do that, youll need to estimate how long each item takes, and know when it must be finished. For exa
13、mple, if you give yourself two hours tonight to do your homework, one hour to practice your lines for the school play, and 20 minutes to do the dishes, and thats three hours and 20 minutes spoken for. The rest of the evening, though, is yours to use however you please.Item 4: The Fun FactorYou may w
14、onder, “When do I get to have fun?” The answer is, every single day! Not only will a good time keep you from burning out18, but you can use your natural craving19 for fun to motivate20 you. Whenever youre faced with a challenging job, promise yourself a special reward when youre donewatching your fa
15、vorite DVD (again!) or an ice-cream cone. Also, find a hobby you absolutely love, something thats so much fun, its a reward in itself, and add it to your schedule.You can also find ways to put some fun into your less-than-thrilling21 tasks, such as studying for a test in your hardest subject. Start
16、by finding a setting that helps you concentrate, such as a quiet room or one with soft music. Then fix yourself a cup of hot chocolate or your favorite tea and settle in. If you make your surroundings as pleasant as possible, youre far more likely to focus and succeed.and you might even find yoursel
17、f saying afterward, “Hey, that wasnt so bad!”Getting organized, setting priorities, keeping track of time, and always remembering to sprinkle22 in some fun. put these four items on your to-do list, and youll be able to cope with all the responsibilities of growing up that come your ways.你从汽车站匆匆赶去上下午
18、4点的钢琴课，接着要练习篮球，摞好晚餐用过的盘子最后，你才有时间去突击家庭作业。不过你实在是筋疲力尽，连眼睛都睁不开了！这还仅仅是周二以上有点儿耳熟？多年来，你不停地告诉四周大人不要像对小小孩似的对你好吧，恭喜你，看起来他们最终听进去了！你周旋于各种家务活、家庭作业、体育运动和各种活动中，非常明显你的家长、教师和教练如今比以往任何时候对你的期待都多。所有的这些新责任简直让你抓狂甚至你会想变回小时候！难道长大确实就得像如此？决不是！往下读，说不定能帮你哦。第一条：有条不紊当你听到“变得有条理”如此的话，会不会开场叹息？非常多人一想到条理就发抖，害怕因而卷入无意义而又多余的工作中。因而，他们老是忙
19、着寻找衣服和试卷；或是浪费珍贵的作业时间打给同学，询咨询遗忘的作业内容。事实上，毫无条理是对时间最无意义的浪费！但是假如有条理的适应不会自动送上门，你该怎么样改正自新呢？非常简单：第一，让每件东西各得其所。决定在什么地点放置什么东西找个书架放书，找个抽屉放冬天的毛衣，找个书夹装英语试卷坚持下去！第二，把你计划做的事情列表记在一个记事本上。把这个小本子放在背包或钱包里。只要你有了新作业、约会、或其它不预备立即去做的任务，就翻开它，把这些事情都记下来！用这种方式，你就不太可能会丢三拉四。记住，重点不是过分追求有条不紊而是节约时间和精力，让你有更多时间去做本人爱做的事！第二条：主次清楚什么事比拟重要
20、？学业、家务、体育运动依然课外活动？假如你说它们都非常重要，完全正确。你得做所有这些来维持平衡的生活。但是，假如它们都非常重要，你怎么样选择先做哪样呢？三个要素决定了你做事的先后顺序。第一是紧迫性。比方，练习小提琴不断重要，但是假如下周你就要独奏了，加紧练习就更为迫切了。第二是对个人的意义某件事与你个人的目的、激情和梦想是否息息相关。例如，完成科学展览会工程非常重要，由于这是学业要求。但是假如你对科学非常有激情，那么这个工程对你个人来说就意义严重第三个是对别人的承诺，这就意味着要注重你的承诺对别人的妨碍。假如你容许了妈妈今晚清扫本人的房间，你就要完成。（假如你不做的话，也要告诉她，由于这也妨碍
21、到她了。）将重要事情分轻重缓急一向不容易，但是牢记以上三点会帮你有效地分配时间哦。第三条：分秒必争有多少个4岁的小孩会担忧他们没时间做完清单上要做的每件事？没一个，对吧？4岁的小孩没什么责任。他们有的确实是自由时间。然而你是个大忙人，要同时应付一大堆事情，记不住时间可不行。这并不意味着你必须遵守严格的时间表，再不能享受片刻空闲光阴。你只是需要预留充足的时间来完成清单上的每件事。因而，你要可能做完每件事需要多久，明白它们必须什么时候完成。比方，今天晚上你给本人两小时做家庭作业，一小时练习校剧台词，20分钟洗盘子，那么一共就用去3小时20分钟。夜里剩下的时间就归你自由支配了。第四条：劳逸结合你可能
22、会疑惑：“我什么时候才能玩啊？”答案是：每天都能够！高快乐兴地玩一玩不仅能让你重新精力充分，你还能用天生爱玩的劲头来鼓励本人。不管何时你面对一项富于挑战的工作，先容许本人：要是能顺利完成，就特别奖励一下本人比方看看你最喜爱的DVD（重看！）或是吃个甜筒。你也能够开掘一项热爱的业余爱好，充满乐趣的那种，实践本身确实是奖励了，把它添加到你的时间表里吧。你还能够找到些方法，给那些单调乏味的任务添点儿乐子。比方复习最难的课程预备考试。先找个能帮你集中精力的地点，比方一间安静的房间或一个播着轻音乐的房间；然后给本人冲杯热巧克力或最喜爱喝的茶，安坐下来。假如能让环境尽可能的温馨，你就更能集中精力做成功甚至，后来你会如此说：“嘿，如此还真不赖啊！”做到有条不紊、主次清楚、分秒必争，还要记得劳逸结合把这4条放在你的计划单上，你就能应对随着成长而至的各种责任了。=
