i don't think my priorities are in order at all, aside from school of course. I always feel like i have no time to do the things that i actually want to do, not mandatory things. i would love to walk my dogs in the morning and go to the beach often or go to a coffee shop and do my work from there. i think that we get so consumed by work or school that we don't make things that make us happy a priority and it shouldn't be that way. I am not one to procrastinate in any way, unless it's an essay because procrastinating makes for the best essays, at least in my case.

Would you say your priorities are in order?
I would say all but one of my priorities are in order. I believe I should spend more time with my family and put less time into my friends and going out. Family should come before friends always but I tend to forget that sometimes. I have felt disconnected from my mom, brother, and sister since I moved to my dad's house a few months ago. I'm lucky if I get to see any of them at least once or twice a week. Some days I feel like I am racing against the clock when I have lots of assignments to do. I use to be a huge procrastinator but I have definitely improved on getting assignments done before the actual day it's due. I realized that it is much easier to do some work everyday instead of doing all the work in one day.

What 3-5 things would make it a great year for you professionally?
-Eliminate procrastination completely.
-Turn in every assignment.
-Set goals for the grades I want.

What 3-5 things would make it a great year for you personally?
-Spending more time with my family.
-Exercise at least 3 times a week.
-Make meaningful friendships and ending meaningless ones.

Procrastination is one thing I do not do often and i don't do it all the time because I know I will get more free time in the future if I do what I have to do sooner.

Yes, I firmly believe that my priorities are in order. I do not feel like I am constantly racing against the clock because I know how to manage my time efficiently. To be honest, I do procrastinate sometimes, only when the task at hand is non-critical.
-Priority list:
school- study more, turn in assignments, complete work, be on time for classes.
-relationships- maintain friendships with good people, stay away from bad influences, make friends with good people.
-family- help out my family when I can, help with bills, complete daily chores.
I would like to make more time to hang out with friends because I rarely get to. With 168 free hours a week, I am wasting them on video games. To gain control of my free time I plan to play less video games and complete my work more efficiently, so I can hang out with friends more often.

Would you say your priorities are in order?

Quite frankly, I am convinced that for the most part my priorities are in order because I learned how to well manage my time efficiently and because I am an overachiever I tend to stay on track and not slack.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?

Unfortunately, I can honestly say that sometimes I do feel as if I have no time in my day to do all the things I need to do. Working and schooling is an absolute task, but I learned how to administer my time a lot better.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?

Truthfully, I am not a procrastinator just because as i stated before i am an overachiever and don’t like being behind and having the feeling of me knowing i have work to do in my head at all times so I would much rather just do it all in time. Although for the last few weeks I may seem as a procrastinator, I sadly broke my computer. ;pp

Reginald Bovastro DBA 5

rjbovastro — 2019-04-08 02:38:07 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order?

No, I don't believe that my priorities are in order due to the fact I have so many tasks to and not enough time to do it. But, when motivated, my priorities can get back on track.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?

Yes, I do feel like this sometimes because of the fact that I feel like I have so much assignments to do with little time, which makes me feel like I'm racing the clock.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?

I do procrastinate a lot because I rather sleep and binge on a show than do loads of homework I can just do the next day. But, when due date of the assignment is really close, that's when I stop procrastinating and actually do the work, which I complete in time, shockingly.

Create a Priority List:

School - To finish school with straight A's and pass all of my tests with a 4 or higher.
Family - Spend more time with family, like playing games or having movie night.
Relationships - Overall, maintaining a good relationship with all people I commute with.

What would you like to make more time for and why?

I would like to make more time for spending time with my friends, since I usually don't get to hang out as often.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?

I waste those 168 hours on sleeping, watching a load of T.V. shows, go on social media, and play video games.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time?"

Some steps I can take that will allow me to control my free time is:
1) Doing my assignments early.
2) Managing my time.
3) Less procrastination.

No. Everything has a specific time slot. It is all organized to the point where sometimes I do things early and have a free time.

Mariana Cartaya

2019-04-09 23:52:38 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order? I would say I could definitely do more to make my priorities straight. I know school should be a main focus but truly right now I am not so invested in getting in grades and "proving" my academic abilities to others. My number one priority is being content with myself and striving to bed the best person I can be so I would say yes.

-Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?The clock shouldn't be raced against you should use it as a tool. I personally dont race against the clock since I can get things done if I really wanted to. Of course , we dont have all the time in the world but we can make it work.
-Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?
I do procrastinate, I leave things that can be done for the last minute just because I rather do something more engaging/ fun now and leave the boring things for last.

3- Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.
Goals are to get A's and B's on the report card. Talk more with family, grow in relationships and open myself more to the world. In America we place so much value on studies which is great and awesome dont get me wrong but to me if your goal is to get A's and B's and study your whole life that isn't a real goal. For me at least I rather focus on goals that build me up in all aspects not only book smarts. At the end of the day, If you dont have other qualities or passion beside school then what is there to you? Whats the use for all your book smarts if you cant properly engage in the real world and have genuine connections with people and even get jobs.

What would you like to make more time for and why? I would love to make more time for learning guitar. I currently have it under my bed and would love to play one day but that wont be possible if I dont dedicate time to learning it.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
Mostly on my phone watching videos and singing.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
Definitely wake up earlier which goes hand in hand with going to sleep at a more reasonable hour. Another thing would be to put my phone away when I dont need it so I can work faster. To gain more free time I could also just follow my schedule more and more each day.

Yes procrastinating is one of my biggest issues personally. I work faster and better last minute. Its also a bad thing because typically when i wait last minute, i have so many assignments and not enough time.

Priorities: Maintaining my grades above a C average.
Relationships: With myself and to become more independent.
Family: I want to be more open with them.

I would like to make more time for myself considering that i get overwhelmed sometimes.

I'm wasting them scrolling through social media.
Steps i'm taking is to stop procrastinating and stop doing the basic minimum work.

I do believe my priorities are in order because I try my best to do everything to its due date and not leave anything behind. I do procrastinate a lot. I know if I want something I have to do what I have to do to achieve my goal. I also think I am in a good mindset right now and happy with where I am right now.

I am so thankful for the friends that I have gained in the couple of months. They are the best and they are always honest with me which is all I can ask for.
I would like to have more time to myself to think through things.
Something I am planning to gain over my free time would be independence, because after I become independent I hope to be on my own and do everything on my own not depending on anybody.

I use time scheduler. The best time planners, whether a loose sheet or an electronic one, will allow me to plan annual, monthly or weekly, as well as daily. To be effective, a time planner must contain a master list where you must capture each task, goal and action required that comes, as well as a calendar and a list of daily activities.
I always work under a list. I can bring the order of chaos faster from a list than from any other tool for time management. Begin by writing below to each task what you intend to complete over the course of the day. If I feel overwhelmed by so many tasks, write down below everything you have to do in the foreseeable future. The act of making a list allows me to exercise control over your time and your life.
Organize your daily list by priority. Each day, I organize my list of tasks in order of priority, classify each task according to its potential consequences, starting with what you should do and work on what would be more pleasant, but certainly not essential, to finish. Once your list is organized, it becomes a map that guides you from morning to evening in a more effective and efficient way. Refuse to do anything until you have written it on the list and organized for its value compared to the other things to do.
Commit yourself to use any management system that you like. It does not matter if you choose only one of the variety of wonderful computer systems, or one of the countless systems that offer a great variety of ways to write everything by hand. What matters is that you master the chosen time management system and use it regularly, until it becomes a natural habit.
Establishes a 45-file system. A "45-file system" is an expiration file that allows you to plan and organize your time and responsibilities more than 2 years in advance. First, clean a desk drawer or get a separate file with space for 14 hanging folders, then get a box of 45 cardboard files to put in them. Number 31 of the files for the days of the month. Designates 12 of the archives for the months of the year, from January to December. Mark the last two files for the next two years. When you have responsibility for six months from now, you just have to place it in the monthly file. At the beginning of each month, take out all your responsibilities for that month and classify them in the daily archives, numbered from 1 to 31. Start planning the time management of each day to get the file for that day. Better yet, prepare your list of "actions" for the next day the night before

My priorities are good because I dont procrastinate when i do my work. Another reason I have my priorities in order because ive been more school oriented and focused on what I have to do right now rather than stressing about the future. I have a healthy relationship with my friends and family. Another priority i have is to get a high GPA and pass the ninth grade. I want to spend more time with my family.

2019-10-25 19:04:40 UTC

yes, i feel like i do have my priorities in order. I am not always on a race against the clock. I procrastinate sometimes, if the assignment is easy I will procrastinate but it’s difficult I will not.
School: Do my assignments earlier. Try and get all A’s
Relationships: Try make new and more friends. Talk to go out more.

I would say my priorities are in order as I do not stress over deadlines often. I usually accomplish my tasks in a timely manner. I don't usually feel as if I'm racing against the clock unless I forget about a task. I may procrastinate a project in order to spend time with my family, friends, or myself.

My List:

Priorities: I want to complete my credits and finish all my volunteer hours so my senior year can be relaxing.

Relationships: I want to spend more time with my friends. Before the year ends, I want to go out with my friends at least once. I also want to teach one of my good friends embroidery as he has expressed interest in it.

Family: I want to find out more about my backgrounds and where my family is really from. I would like to get a DNA test or map by the time I'm 18.

I think I'm wasting some of my empty 168 hours traveling. My commute involves going to Miami Beach from Pembroke and all the way back. I try to maximize the time by doing homework and entertaining myself in the car.

I want to gain control of my free time by multitasking. Instead of sitting and watching videos, I would like to play games where I stand up and move. This way, I can get exercise and free time done. I also want to do projects little by little, such as a paragraph for a 5 page essay every day.

My priorities are good and in order, because I keep up with everything i have to do, and I get all my things done in the time that it's supposed to be done or before its due.
I don't feel like I'm going against, i get all my things done within the time it needs to be done or before.
I do procrastinate, not a lot but I do sometimes when I have a lot of things I have to do and i don't want to do it, i just put it to the side.
School: I want to keep doing what I'm doing because I'm doing my work and getting it done in time. Also make sure i stay focused.
Relationships: I want to spend more time with my friends outside of school and talk to them outside of school. Also spend more time with my family.
Family: I want to be able to talk to my mom more and know that i can trust her and she can trust me. And talk to my brother more make sure he's okay and let him know he can trust me.I would like to make more time for being with my family and friends, also to exercise. Because I sit around a lot and watch movies and shows.If i had 168 hours a week i would be using them to get my work done the relaxing once everything is all done.The steps I plan on taking is doing the things that i have to do in a timely manner, that after I can relax and have free time to myself.

I would say that my priorities are in order. Most of that time, if not all of the time I always complete my work early so I don't really stress about getting stuff done and turned in on time. Sometimes I do procrastinate if I just need a little break or some time to myself before i start working again.
My List:

Priorities: I want to continue to do my work as soon as I am able so that I am always ahead in my work.

Relationship: i would like to go out with my friends more often than I do now before I graduate from high school. After high school, i don't know when of if I might see them again so i want to make as much good memories as possible.

Family: I always spend a lot of time with my family but you could never have to strong of a relationship when it comes to family.

If I had 168 hours in that week, i would try to put most of that tome to being productive. I would try to get ahead of my online classes as much as possible and if not that then doing whatever homework that I have to.
I would spend some of that time volunteering to get more hours for school. Maybe when I go to the park to volunteer, I could exercise in my free time.

Yes, i feel like my priorities are definitely in order. Sometimes i feel like i am constantly racing against the clock, but it depends on the day and whats happening. Sometimes i do procrastinate; if something is easy it'll take me longer to finish, but if something is hard i'll finish as soon as i get it.

2019-10-29 13:19:24 UTC

Priorities: Apply to more colleges instead of focus on wasteful things like video games.

Relationship: I would to spend more time with my mom and friends, people care about me and my interests. Spending more time them can build a strong bond with the people i love most.

Family: I want to be able to talk to my dad and have a interesting conversation. We're both out so much that we rarely see each other even though we live in the same household. Also, take responsibility and do my chores.

-Would you say your priorities are in order? In my opinion, my priorities are in perfect order. Finishing school, volunteering, and getting a decent job.

Priorities: Raising my GPA, staying active mentally and physically, getting involved in my community, and getting a job to support my family.

Relationships: I have healthy relationships with everyone I allow myself to be around. I don't associate with anyone who doesn't have the same energy or goals as me. Being toxic or not supporting my dreams would get you cut off.

School: Most importantly I would be focusing on finishing all my credits/volunteer hours.

My 168 hours wouldn't be wasted by any means because I would want me time especially on my weekend.

1. I would say that my priorities are in order. I center my attention, energy, and concern on what's most important in life. As a high-school student, I'm met with challenges that requires me to study for difficult exams and quizzes, sometimes making me feel like i'm racing against the clock. I tend to procrastinate on certain assignments because I may feel averse to these tasks or have ample amounts of time to complete them.

My List:
2. Priorities: Meeting specific academic requirements in order to graduate high-school.

Relationships: I like to keep wholesome relationships with my family and friends, we support each other's dreams and aspirations.

School Goals: I would like to continue achieving A's and B's over the course of my semesters and receive high scores on my SAT/ACT.

What would you like to make more time for and why?
- I would like to make more time for my personal fitness. Indulging in physical activities and exercises can improve my health and reduce the risk of me developing severe diseases.

If you truly had 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
- If I had 168 empty hours a week, I would honestly spend most of my time studying information that I may have a difficulty understanding.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
- Some steps I plan on taking to "gain control of my free time" are planning ahead, eliminating the distractions, and prioritizing my goals.

scottrocks2003 — 2019-10-31 02:13:37 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order?
I would say my priorities are mostly in order. This is because i get good grades on most of my assignments, i study frequently, and i allow myself time to complete other tasks that i feel i would need or want to do.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
I actually have too much free time on my hands. Because of this, i am always looking for something productive to do besides my courses, like learning a new trait or skill.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?
I procrastinate only on easy school assignments. I feel that these assignments wont take too much time, thus i always say i'm going to finish them later due to them not needing a major commitment to my schedule. Although, i always end up completing them on time, just close to the due date.

Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.

School- Right now, i'm trying to complete the 80 required hours needed for volunteering. I'm doing this at an animal shelter as i am trying to become a Veterinarian. To get into animal medicine, i would need to get a good GPA and hopefully get a scholarship for college that can help me pay off the student loans that come with becoming a vet.

Relationships-I spend time with my friends and family whenever i can as it helps me release pent up stress along with just have a good time with them.

Priorities-I exercise daily, i study diligently to get into a good college, and i also enjoy passing time playing video games. I also help my family around the house with chores and am always trying to learn some kind of new skill.

What would you like to make more time for and why?
Well, to be honest, i don't feel like i would need to make more time for anything. If i make more time for a specific task, then i would need to decrease my time spent on something else, and i feel that my time is pretty well balanced right now.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
If i had 168 hours a week, i would do a mix of productivity and enjoyment. I would complete my courses and maybe try to get ahead on them. For enjoyment, i might volunteer more at the animal shelter along with read some light novels and watch some shows.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
The steps i plan on taking to gain control of my free time would be to manage my time wisely between productivity such as chores and school, and enjoyment such as games and light novels.

4. Yes I would like to have more time because I would want to complete all of my assignments before the due dates.

you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?

2019-10-31 12:09:35 UTC

Would you say that your priorities are in order?
Yes, I would say that my priorities are mostly in order. I sometimes study, but when I go to school I always do what is necessary to get a good academic score.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
No, because I constantly find myself doing nothing most of the time, which gives me a lot of free time. I try to find things to do constantly.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?
Yes, because when I do my work and get handed something to do, I would rather watch TV, take walks, or really anything else.

My List:
School- For school, I mostly do what I am told and give 100% on it, of it. Which is a blessing and a curse, really. However, in school, I want to continue with the A's and B's I've been recently been getting, and keep that score until I leave high school.
Relationships & Family- For relationships, I would like to keep relationships with my friends and family healthy and respectable, and more careful. This way, I can rub off only positive vibes.

What would you like to make more time for and why?
Well, I would like to make more time into studying. While it's more of a really boring thing that just induces procrastination. I will try my best to study more and just telling myself that it'll rub off in the future.

If you truly had 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
Well, I would waste them into studying most hours and the game and other stuff into the other, because not all of life has to be of you working yourself while you wait for the next "big event" for your life.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
The steps I plan on taking is to spend a little time into studying, that way I know that at the end of all the studying, I can do the other stuff at the end when I am done. This helps me learn that even though I am doing something "boring' now, I'll be doing something fun and engaging later.

1. I would say that I have my priorities in order due to the fact that i'm doing great in classes academic wise for 1st and 2nd quarter as of right now. Also when i'm doing something like school work, I can stay on task without being distracted.

2.
I often feel like i'm racing against the clock because I may procrastinate doing something I needed to do because I might being watching TV or playing the game and etc.

3.
I would want to make more time for my family and time to study because I love my family and studying is beneficial for grades.

4.
I would most likely use the time to go on the game watch YouTube or spend time with family like go out to the movies.

I'd spend those 168 hours living my life by going places hanging out with family and friends and I learn more by traveling and meeting new people than wasting time at school doing an essay on something that was already written or answering question that don't lead to anything, but a simple grade to determine my GPA.

Honestly, yes, I do procrastinate about every day, i usually say that ill do it later, and sometimes I tend just never to do it.

3- Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of a career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.

School- i usually do what I'm supposed to. I do want to get better grades, but I stress alot, so it doesn't help.

Relationship- the relationships with my friends I like to keep them not toxic and to grow as a person as well.

Family- I don't have a strong connection with them, so i don't mind for that

1. Would you say your needs are all together?

I would state my needs are all together. I realize school starts things out and I make a point to stay aware of every one of my assignments and make a solid effort to keep my evaluations high.

2. Do you sense that you are continually dashing with time as the opponent?

I sense that I am continually dashing with time as the opponent, everybody is. There's continually something to do and never sufficient opportunity.

3. Do you stall (be straightforward)? Why or why not?

Once in a while I do stall yet I generally ensure that everything completes whether it is somewhat later or not.

4. Make the rundowns that Laura is requesting that her group of spectators make. Be that as it may, rather than profession, yours should concentrate on school, connections, and family.

School: I might want to do astonishing in secondary school and graduate realizing I gave a valiant effort, experienced my greatest years, and am developed enough to be a grown-up.

Connections: As on right now the entirety of my associations with my loved ones are going great, in time individuals are expelled from your life yet we know it all occurs which is as it should be.

Family: My family means everything to me and they are all consistently there for me.

5. What might you want to make more opportunity for and why?

In the event that I could make more opportunity for anything I might want to make more opportunity to roll out an improvement and help the individuals out of luck.

6. In the event that you genuinely had those 168 void hours seven days, where are you squandering them?

With those 168 void hours I would separate them equally to accomplish a couple of things.. I would help individuals out of luck, I would work out, I would work more and I would take additional time t go through with my family.

7. What are a few stages you plan on taking to "deal with your leisure time"?

A few plans I plan on taking to "gain control" of my spare time is practice my time the board aptitudes and possibly keep a rundown of things I realize I need to complete and maintain everything in control/sorted out.

No I would not say my needs are all together on the grounds that I will in general dawdle a great deal.

Truly I sense that I am continually dashing with time as the opponent on account of my own doing by holding up till the latest possible time.

Indeed I genuinely linger a ton and I truly need to improve for instance right now I am attempting to get my locale administration hours a minute ago.

I stall since I have a feeling that I can without much of a stretch get things done ultimately.

Needs: Getting An's and B's this school year.

Connections: My family/sweetheart/Friends

I might want to make more opportunity for my police program since I need to draw nearer to getting contracted as a cop.

I would utilize my 168 hours on my police program and boxing in light of the fact that those are the most profitable.

The means I plan on taking on dealing with my spare time is to quit being lethargic on my telephone constantly

1.Would you say your priorities are in order.
No, I would not say my priorities are in order, because I spend most of my time worrying about my friends, Playing games, and just not thinking about school most of the time. I don't feel I need to worry about it because I do good on tests and classwork without thinking about them, so I have no reason to worry.
2.Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
No, I usually just go with the flow and deal with the consequences, if I suddenly feel like helping out a teacher or something i do it, not thinking about the consequences.
3. Do you procrastinate?
Yes, I usually procrastinate and use the excuse, "I have nothing else to do, so might as well, play games or use my phone". This is my usual thought when at home, so yes I do procrastinate.
4.Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. yours should focus on school, relationships, and family. What would you like to make more time for and why? If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them? What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
I would personally feel like I have enough time in the week, if I go to school every week, from 7 to 3, that is around 8 hours a day, which times 7 is 56 hours deducted from my total 168 hours, obviously not including sleep, but even with this time deduction I still have a large surplus of time that I don't take advantage of.

If I had those 168 hours in a week, I am probably wasting them procrastinating, I can rationalize and say, 60% of my week, not weekend, is spent on procrastinating and not really doing anything that benefits me.

1. Would you say your priorities are in order?
No, I wouldn’t say that my priorities are completely in order because certain things I do I will put my all into it whether it’s my time or 100% of my attention but when it came to other things I wouldn’t devote myself towards it.

2. Do you feel like you are constantly running against the clock?
Yes, I feel like this often due to me trying to keep up and staying ahead in my school work and my job. Especially when there are due dates set for a lot of my work and on top of that staying on top of my studies. School takes up most of my daily time.

3. Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?
Yes, I do procrastinate often when I get uninterested in something or if it’s something that I say will not be fun for me I push back on the time that I’ll do it or I won’t do it at all.

4.If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
If I had those 168 empty hours a week I would use them to take the time to spend even more time with my family, volunteer for the needy, and to do things that I enjoy doing.

5. Create the list that Laura is asking her audience to create:
Family and Friends- I would like to spend more positive time with my family and to continue to show them the love and affection that I have for them.
School- I want to continue on with having good grades so that I can get myself into a good college for my bright future.

6. What are the steps that you plan on taking to “gain control of your free time”?
I plan on limiting myself on how many hours I spend watching tv or being on my phone for unnecessary time.

1) Would you say your priorities are in order?
- I'd say that my priorities are not completely in order. I do create a weekly schedule and set daily reminders. However, I sometimes postpone those reminders which has a domino effect on my schedule when I choose to do less important things over my priorities.
2)Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
-Yes, most of the time, I do feel like I am rushing for everything. However, I know that it is my own fault. Whenever I follow my schedule, I do not have to rush because I put my priorities first which makes me feel so much better in the end.
3) Do you procrastinate? why or why not?
-Yes, I do procrastinate when there is something that I do not want to do, but I am learning to do those things I dislike first, to get them out of the way.
4) Create Laura's list : school, relationships, and family.
- School : I want to get honor roll for every semester including this year and next year to be able to graduate with a high GPA.
-Relationships: I have good relationships with my friends but I would also like to make more female friends. The majority of my friends are males.
-Family: I have a good bond with all my siblings. However, I'd like to work on getting a better bond with my parents.
5) What would you like to make more time for and why?
- I'd like to make more time to help out people in need. To go volunteer at places and put smiles on people's faces.
6)If you truly had those 168 hours a week empty, where would you waste them?
- I'd use them to complete my school work, volunteer at places, exercise, spend time with my family, practice dancing, playing piano, etc. I'd try to spend most of the time in the lasting zone but not all of it.
7)What are some steps you plan on taking to gain control of your free time?
-I plan to keep on creating a weekly schedule and completing everything so nothing is delayed. I also plan on doing my daily reminders as soon as they pop up on my phone so I do not get overwhelmed by having to do all of them all at once rushing. Basically, my plan is to get everything I do not want to do, done first.

3.Do you procrastinate? why or why not?

7. What are some steps you plan on taking to gain control of your free time?
- I will continue to keep up with my calendar, but I attempt waking up earlier and starting my day earlier so I could get everything done throughout the day without procrastinating and rushing.

I believe my priorities are not in order. I just wake up in the morning and decide what i’ll do that day, if I don't get to them then i'll try to do it another day. Sometimes I feel as I was racing against the clock because I am not a very organized person and tend to leave everything last minute. I procrastinate all the time because I feel like I work better last minute. Laura’s List School- I want to achieve better grades & get into FAU. Relationships- At the end of the day I want my real friends and families to stay near me and always be there with me. Family- I want to get along with my brother and my mom more. I would like to make more time for myself because sometimes I feel as if I was losing myself. I am wasting those 168 empty hours by watching netflix and being i my room too much. I would love to start exercising more and planning stuff to do on my free time.

Rashell Hernandez

2020-10-27 14:53:38 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order?

In my opinion, I certainly believe that my priorities are in order. Everyone is entitled to worry free time, while in the majority of the time doing necessary work needed in your life. Knowing your goals and how to get there creates this image on actions that you must do every day to do what you need to as you reach the end of the tunnel.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?

I do not feel like I am constantly racing against the clock but on the contrary, I try to work with my time in the day. If you race against the clock, I feel like you are going quicker through life. The days are going faster, time is pacing, you're getting older, only because you're not working with the time but trying to get ahead of it.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?

Honestly, I do try my hardest to complete all my priorities at the moment or later in the day. I never leave things for the following day because then my work pills up and I find myself drowning in unnecessary stress. Procrastinating is one of the worst things you can do, if you have the time and are already Infront of what you need to do then complete it.

Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family. What would you like to make more time for and why?

School- I want to work on ending the school year with a higher GPA than I have at the moment. Setting these small goals make me feel more accomplished. I believe by spending more dedicated time to my studies I can reach it in no time.

Family/ Friends- I spend various hours in the day with my loved one's weekdays and weekends. My family and I have great relationships and I don’t feel like there's any work that needs to be done all because of how well we all are. My best friend and I’s relationship during the whole pandemic have not been affected only the time we spend with each other has been shortened. I feel like we need to regain all the time we lost due to this pandemic and get right back to how often we would see each other.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?

If I had 168 hours of time to waste on something my choice, it would be my wellbeing. We focus so much of our time pleasing others and doing things for loved ones that we forget about ourselves. Taking time for yourself is not selfish, it is being conscious and recognizing development needed. My 168 empty hours in my week would be spent on growing as a person.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?

Some steps I plan on taking to gain control of my free time would be to always be aware of things that need to be done and tackle them. Creating a list and tackling my needs will help me not procrastinate and leave me with some free time. My free time will be used on personal growth or family time. Being aware of where you are lacking in life helps you become stronger as a person.

Catalina Pinzon

2020-10-27 18:02:33 UTC

1. Would you say your priorities are in order?
No, I do not believe my priorities are in order. I try to be organized with my priorities but I either put it off or have something else that comes up. Recently I have been trying to get them straight and so far it's working.
2. Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
Yes, I do feel like sometimes I am constantly racing against the clock because I stress myself out a lot. I feel like I don't have a lot of time to complete my tasks because of how much I procrastinate. Even when I do complete my tasks at a reasonable time I still feel like I was rushing.
3. Do you procrastinate? Why or why not?
Yes, I do believe that I procrastinate very much. I get overwhelmed completing my tasks so I go on social media. Whenever I do this I always tend to stay on it for a large amount of time when I could have used that time to finish my assignments.
4. My list.
School- I would like to improve my grades and create a schedule to complete assignments so I won't be so stressed when they pile up.
Family/ Friends- I would like to help out my family as much as I can because they are busy and can't do some stuff at home and I also want to spend more time with them. I would also like to spend more time with my friends.
5. What would you like to make more time for and why?
I would like to make more time for my mental health and my sport because it relaxes me. I believe that mental health is really important and doing my sport helps me with that a lot.
6. If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
If I did have these empty hours a week I would use them to spend more time with family and friends. Another thing I would use it for is for my mental health. I could also use it to catch up on future assignments.
7. What are some steps you plan on taking to gain control of your free time?
Some steps I will be taking to gain control of my free time is to separate my time wisely. Separate school from family and friends. I will also do my best to not procrastinate so much or at all until I am complete with my assignments for the day.

2. It depends on the day but for the most part not really. The reason for this is that I only feel that time is racing when I do things last minute other than that I have been doing everything just fine.
3. I do procrastinate, when it comes to school work or even practicing, my priorities never change but sometimes I do things last minute. It affects me in the long run. especially when it comes to practicing because with that I need to be consistent.
4. A list of things that I would like to make more time for would be. Being able to paint more, cook for myself instead, learn to park, learn more about finances and stock market, and organize things.
5. If I had those 168 hours a week id be wasting it on the list I just gave above and probably most likely with my friends to go out too. That would be saved for last because with the amount of time I have now and not as much of responsibility as adults have I spend my time focusing on things for my future.
6. I control my free time good when it comes to not being at my house. However, If I'm home I would like to use my phone less often. But little by little i'm learning to take control of that by deleting most of my social media.

- Would you say your priorities are in order?
I would like to think I have my priorities in order, but I know sometimes I don't act like they are.
- Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
No, I don't feel like I'm running against the clock because I don't do things super last minute and I don't pressure myself as much as the average person would over my responsibilities.
- Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?
I do procrastinate, and it's mainly because I don't enjoy doing school work. School work unconsciously brings a negative feelings, so I naturally avoid it even though I know I have t do it. I always end up forcing myself to complete it even if it is later on in the week.
- Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.
School: I want to get good/acceptable grades (all at least over 80%) by the end of this year/semester so that my GPA can stay high and I can get accepted into the university of my choice.
Family/Friends: I would like to build better relationships with my family and friends.
- What would you like to make more time for and why?
I would like to make more time for studying for my SAT and ACT and college preparation because I would like to get into the college of my choice next year.
- If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
If I truly had 168 empty hours a week, I'm wasting them at work or in my bed sleeping. I don't have much free time after work throughout the week because I work almost every day.
- What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
In order to "gain control of my free time" I can start going to bed at reasonable times and waking up earlier so I can have my own time before and after work. With all that extra time, I can choose whether to do school work or do valuable things that will increase my happiness overall.

1. Would you say your priorities are in order?
No, I do not believe my priorities are in order, in fact, this year has been the year that I have felt the most out of order. Because of college applications and everything going on with Covid, my priorities have been all over the place. Normally, I am a very organized person but this year has been difficult when it comes to keeping priorities in order.
2. Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
At the beginning of the school year, I had everything in order and nothing felt like it needed to be rushed, I was going slow and steady. Now, with college applications and the SAT coming up, I have felt like I very much am racing against the clock. I have been struggling with staying on top of my assignments, with working out everyday like I was before, and with getting things done for college applications.
3. Do you procrastinate? Why or why not?
Yes, I do procrastinate especially the last few weeks. Procrastination is way less stressful then getting yourself together and getting things done. With my future a few months ahead, applying myself has been a struggle because when I focus on school, I am reminded of all the things I still need to do for college applications and that college is right there in front of me. Procrastination is almost a defensive mechanism that I unconsciously do in order to prevent myself from stressing.
4. Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.
School- I want to attempt to bump my GPA up a little more before I turn in college applications so that I can get better scholarships from better schools.
Relationships- I would like to better my friendship with my two best friends because I feel like it would be nice to have a partner in crime when navigating through the new chapter of life I am about to enter. Hopefully my best friend and I can get an apartment together. I'd also like to better my relationship with God which I have already began trying to mend.
Family- I would like to get closer with my brother again because he is super busy with work and having his own life so it would be nice to mend that bond. My father works from home so I see him 24/7 but my mother works until almost 7-8pm everyday so I really hope I could spend more time with her in the future.
5. What would you like to make more time for and why?
I would like to make more time for spending time with my close, instant family like my parents and my brothers because at the end of the day, family is the most important thing in life. I would also like to make more time to go to church and understand my relationship with God better.
6. If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
If I had 168 empty hours a week, I'd split them up into very important areas of my life. I'd dedicate time to my family, self-care, setting goals, spending time with my best friend, and working to better my understanding of my relationship with God.
7. What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
Some steps I plan on taking to gain control of my free time are using a planner to plan out things I can do with my day and setting small goals that will lead me to accomplishing bigger goals throughout my free time.

Daniela Donado

2020-10-30 22:53:40 UTC

3.I do procrastinate because I get easily distracted and sadly I am a very lazy person.
4.School: I would love to stop procrastinating, stop being lazy, set a schedule, and find motivation to accomplish having the best grades I can possibly have to my ability.

I definitely think that my priorities are in order.. I have all my work done for school on time, I work two jobs, and I help out in the house. I definitely feel like I'm constantly racing against the clock because I never stop, I always have something to do. I procrastinate on my school work a lot because of the fact that I have a lot of responsibilities and most of the time I just tell myself that I will do later. One thing I should focus more on is definitely making more time for my family and friends because i barely see them. If I had 168 hours free per week I would have some time for myself and the rest of the time I would be hanging out with my bestfriends and my sisters. I don't really ever have free time so I don't really need to change anything.

1. Would you say your priorities are in order? I would say my priorities are in order because I've learned to manage my time more wisely and prioritize some activities over others, especially when it comes to school and sports.
2. Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock? Sometimes I feel like I am racing against time since there is always something to complete and get ahead on, and leaving things to last minute can be very stressful.
3. Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not? I do procrastinate when it comes to things that don't necessarily need to be done right away by telling myself I'll do it later or asking for help at the last minute. But holding things off is worse because it becomes a constant habit, so I try my best to do it at that moment if I can.
4. Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.
School - I'd continue to work on maintaining a good GPA, passing all classes, stop procrastinating, and creating a schedule to plan my day throughout the week.

2. Yes, sometimes I feel like I am racing against the clock because I want to get many things done in the day. To me, the day goes by fast and I end up rushing to get everything complete.
3. I do sometimes procrastinate because I can get distracted on my phone some days and end up taking longer to get my work done. Mostly though, if I know my homework will take long I usually start early to avoid rushing.

family/friends: I want to set aside more time for them and communicate with then more.
5. I would like to make more time to work out because sometimes I am too lazy or am I am flooded with homework.

2. I do not feel like I am racing against the clock when it comes to assignments because I make sure to take a full day out of schedule to just focus on homework.

Family/friends: I would like to spend more time with my family and choose much wisely my group of friends.

I believe my priorites are in order as I have been spending less time on social media and I’ve been focusing on myself more. I am caught up almost 100 percent in school. I started to change my eating habits. I have been working very hard to better my life and spend at most 2 hours a day on video games and I focus on all my homework.

Would you say your priorities are in order? I do think my priorities are in order which is school and basketball. As a student-athlete, I have to be on top of my school work before anything else and my performance during practice and games.
Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock? Yes, all the time, I feel like the day goes by so fast when I am focused and getting my work done.
Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not? Yes, I have always been a procrastinator and I always leave my assignments for last minute. As an athlete who plays for two teams, it is difficult for me to get my work done on time and so I usually spend most of my Saturdays (my only time off of basketball) trying to catch up on my work.
Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.
School: I would like to make more time for school because I hate being behind on my assignments and I want to be able to get ahead.
Family/Friendships: I would like to make more time to see my friends because as a student-athlete I have no time for my social life.
What would you like to make more time for and why? I would like to make more time to see my family because I feel like I never take the time to see them as much as I would like to.
If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them? If I had 168 empty hours in a week, I would spend it on catching up on my assignments, going to the gym, and going to my basketball practices.
What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"? Some steps I plan on taking are making a schedule of when I should do my assignments and become more organized.

I would say that my priorities are in order because I put my education before my work and other social activities. But I do feel like sometimes I'm racing against the clock with my school work because even thought school comes first, sometimes I don't feel like doing anything except relax and watch tv. I do procrastinate because I'm always saying that I'm going to do things later. I would love to make more time for my family since I barely see them because we all work at different times and if I truly have 168 empty hours a week I would use some of those hours on them. Some steps that I plan to take to gain control of my free time is to follow my schedule and make sure I do everything.

I would say that my priorities are definitely in order. In reality I only spend a couple hours doing things that won’t help for the future. I spend most of the morning doing homework. I wake up around 9 and start my homework. I normally finish a couple hours later, around 11 or 12. At that time I normally go to the gym. I get back around 1-1:30. Then I’ll either play video games for an hour or get on my phone for bit until practice which starts at 3:30. I then get back late, at around 8. I then shower, eat, and play some videos games to end off the night. If I truly did have 168 empty hours in a week, I feel like I would use it wisely.

I believe I have my priorities straight as I have set myself certain goals and I do whatever it takes to achieve them. I work as hard as I can on and off the field to be the best version of myself. No, I do not believe I am racing against the clock because I have a set schedule to make sure I get things done with time to spare and do what I want. Yes, I do procrastinate but then I remember what my goals are and start to get to work as time is valuable. When it comes to school i want to push my grades up until they are completely all A's as for my family I would like to take the time to call them everyday and have a good conversation as I do not see them everyday. If I had those 168 empty hours I will use them to see my family back home and spend time with them as they are a big part of my life and help me through everything. I believe to take control I must stop procrastinating because I already have a set schedule but I must follow through with this to stay on task.

Yes i would say that my priorities are in order because my top priorities would be school and baseball and I am really ahead in both. Yes sometimes when I don't do my school work early I feel rushed against the clock to get my work done on time and not turn them in late. No I do not feel like I procrastinate. School: I want to actually pay attention to what I am learning and expand my knowledge in different subjects that can probably be useful in the future.
Family/friends: I would like to spend more time with my family and choose much wisely my group of friends. What I would like to make more time for is my friends and family because I really don't get to see my friends due to baseball. Where i would waste those hours would be with my friends and training baseball to reach my goal. Some steps i plan on taking to gain control of my free time is by planning ahead of time and write it down to not forget.

2021-03-26 14:26:53 UTC

I believe my priorities are in order just because i learn to put my education before anything. I feel like as a person who works and does school as well i get a lot done. Yes, i do feel like i am constantly racing the clock. The day goes by so fast and i feel like i try to get so much done before a certain time as well. Yes, i procrastinate so much... I tell myself i am going to do this later and i am going to do this but i always leave it for last minute. Since i work everyday i always tend to do my work on my days off or just leave it last minute. School: i would like to make more time for you since i am almost always behind but i always get you done no matter what. Family/friendships: I want to make more time for you guys since i am always so busy throughout the day and sometimes at night. I would like to make more time for my family i feel like my days and weeks are always so busy that i never really have the time for them. If i had 168 empty hours a week i would try to work do school and spend time with my friends and family. Some steps i should take is be more organized and set a time frame for myself everyday and just go by that.

1. Would you say that your priorities are in order? - I think that for the most part my priorities are in order. I do think that there is some work I can do like putting more time towards sports instead of other things but for the most part my priorities are in order.
2. Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?- No, I always prioritize my work that has a deadline so that I do not feel like I am racing against the deadline at the last minute.
3. Do you procrastinate why or why not? I do procrastinate because I will be working on something for a while and then my mind will tell me to take a break and then I get caught up doing something else and then forget to do it.
My list
Family: I would make more time for going to my dads house and see my baby brother.
School: I would like to make more time for sports while still balancing my main school subjects.
Relationships: I would like to make more time to visit my friends on the weekends.
Where would I be wasting those 168 hours?: I think I would be practicing for basketball and softball season, finishing up this class, and watching netflix.
How will I "gain control of my free time?": I think I will lay out a schedule of when I need to get up, doing things I consider my top priorities, and making sure that I don't have anything missing. I also need to set time for me and allowing myself a break.

Would you say your priorities are in order? I think my priorities are in order most of the time. I'm sure I can do better in certain areas but the majority of the time yes.
Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock? It depends on what i'm doing. I usually don't but sometimes I'm not very good at managing my time well so it can be a little intense.
Do you procrastinate why or why not?
I do procrastinate all the time. Not for super important things though. For example if I tell myself i'm going to shower at 7:00 I usually don't shower till 7:45 or 8:00. Although if I have a important assignment to do I put that first.
My List:
Family - I can try and text my cousins more because I don't normally talk to them unless we are all together which doesn’t happen often.
School - I can put more effort into my schoolwork and make sure it all gets done before the due date.
Relationships - I can call my other friends instead of the same 3 friends everyday. I can also be a bit more social.
Where would I be wasting those 168 hours? I am usually just watching movies or netflix. Sometimes I play volleyball with my dad and I have a great time.
How will I "gain control of my free time"? I will try and be more organized. I can also do everything I need to do before I have freetime.

I would say that my priorities are in order. I feel as if I can improve some of my organization, but for the most part my priorities are where they need to be. Though, I feel as if I am racing the clock because I try to finish several task in a day besides rationing them between every other day. I sometimes procrastinate because I am always so busy. I try to balance my school work with dance practice, baby-sitting my little brother, and taking care of my dog. As well as several distractions such as television, social media, and FaceTiming friends. Majority of the time I usually avoid these distractions until I have my priorities dealt with and done.

Family: I can try to communicate with the family members that I do not usually speak with daily.

School: I can put more effort and time into my studies for improvement.

Relationships: I can socialize with others more to perhaps make more friends, and make more time to spend with my closest friends.

I would want to manage my time more efficiently, and make room to spend more time with my family and friends. I feel as if I am always in my room either doing homework or on my phone, so I really want to hang out more with those that care for me. If I had 168 empty hours, I would try to finish as much homework as I can along with exercising and going out with friends to have a good time. Some steps that I plan on taking to “gain control of my free time” is to stop procrastinating, avoiding distractions, and organizing an agenda each day so that all of my daily tasks are set up in a timely manner.

For the most part would say that my priorities are in order. My main priorities right now are school and work, making sure I’m doing well in my classes as well as growing my leadership skills at my job. Honestly yes, I feel like I never have enough hours in a day to get everything done and it feels like a daily battle. Yes, I’m a big time procrastinator. I feel like I work better understand pressure which is not good because then I’m just minimize my timeline of completing things that’s need to get done. Family is the most important thing to me, and spending time with the people you share you blood with is often taken for granted in this world. We never know when we will take our last breath, and life can be taken away in a second. So for me it’s important to everyday take a moment and spend time with my family talking about our day. School, spend more time studying rather than scrolling through social media. Relationships, I go to work almost every single day and through the months I’ve made some wonderful friends. I would like to get to know them better and talk to them on a daily basis even if it’s just a “Hi, how are you?” Because that can go a long way in making someone’s day, knowing someone cares. If I had 168 empty hours I would probably be wasting them by scrolling on Tiktok or Netflix. A step I would take is making myself a schedule to follow everyday to keep myself accountable of getting this done when they are supposed to be done.

layalsabouni04 — 2021-10-22 00:02:05 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order? On some days, I do think that I my priorities in order. I have a schedule of what to do everyday and to fit everything that I need to accomplish for a specific day and then the rest of the week. Sometimes I get it done, but if I don't have time for something I try to get it done some other time in the week.
Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock? I sometimes do feel like I'm racing against the clock because I can't always finish some things during the same day I plan to finish it. However, I try my best and put deadlines and always manage to finish it the original time I started out with.
Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Yes, I do procrastinate and I think a lot of people do that. I end up working on, for example, a school assignment and then my mind tells me I need a 5 minute break, but that break turns into 10, then 15, then an hour and so on and eventually postpone it for another time. It's a bad habit that I try to work on.
My list:
Family= Go out with my family to places that we all like, not getting into unnecessary arguments with my sister, and be closer to my cousins.
School: Try to pay more attention to my classes, get my work done during the class period and not afterschool, and less procrastination.
Relationships: I would like to see my friends more often on the weekends, improve relationships that feel off, and make new friends.
What would you like to make more time for and why? I would like to make more time for hanging with my sister. I want to make more time for this because I always want me and her to always have a good relationship throughout our lives and I love hanging out with her but want to do it more outside the house (like going to the mall or movies).
If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them? If I had 168 empty hours a week, I would be going out all the time. To the malls, with my friends, my sister. Going to amusement parks, go to Louisiana to see my friends over there. Anything that's fun basically.
What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"? Some steps that I plan on taking to "gain control of my free time" is to create a schedule, even though I already sort of have one (in my mind) I would literally create one and add things that I really want to do, such as swimming and going out.

1. Would you say that your priorities are in order?- I somewhat think my priorities are in order. I do think that I could improve though, because for smaller priorities I never get to them and just waste my time doing other stuff that wont benefit me in life.
2. Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?- Yes, I do feel that way I always leave everything until last minute and everything just keeps bundling up. This leads me to have to rush through everything and trying to get everything done before times up.
3. Do you procrastinate why or why not?- Yes I procrastinate a lot. This is because I leave everything to last minute and I think its not really my "priority" at the moment. Also when I start assignments or anything that needs to be done I get distracted and say I am going to go back to doing my assignments but I never do.
My List:
School: Actually pay attention to my RLI classes. Not procrastinate on my assignments. Also, do my class assignments in class and not afterschool hours.

Relationships: Stop drifting away from my friends and actually start caring about talking to them. Hang out with my friends more often. Check up on my bestfriend even though she replaced me with a boy.

Family: Go out more places with my parents. For me and my sister to not get into irrelevant arguments. Lastly, talk to my grandparents more often.

What would you like to make more time for and why?- I would like to make more time for my sister. This is because I feel like we get too caught up in our school assignments or social media that we forget we have each other. I would also like to make more time to read.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them? -
If I truly had those 168 hours a week I am wasting them on procrastination, social media, YouTube and Netflix.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
I plan on creating a calendar for myself with all my assignments and what I want to dedicate my time to, that way my days will be organized on what I really have been wanting to accomplish.

Yes. I would say that my priorities are in order because I always make sure to do the things that are more important first, and the least important stuff after. Even though my priorities are in order, I do feel like sometimes I am constantly racing against the clock. Sometimes I don’t accomplish or finish a certain task at the time that I want to, so that sometimes leaves me frustrated. I definitely am a procrastinator. I procrastinate especially when a task or assignment’s due date is far away, and I always end up doing it last minute. I would like to make more time for school because lately I have been having trouble balancing school and work. I don’t really need to focus on relationships, maybe I can work on being more attentive. For family, I’m with them everyday so I don’t need to make more time for them. If I had 168 empty hours a week I would definitely spend more time at school and at work. Those are the main things that I need to focus on. Some steps that I should take is being less of a procrastinator and beginning with the end in mind when getting ready to make a decision or complete a task.

I feel that my priorities are in order I just do not act on them. I do feel that I am constantly racing against time. I procrastinate because I have so much to do that it leaves me immobilized sometimes. In school, I would like to have the discipline to sit down and do the work that I need to do always, not leave it for the last minute. Instead of relationships, I have tennis which is the sport that I play and will play in college. I need to also focus and do my best to get the results I want on top of that I need to do the fitness of it. With family, they live far but I can call them more often and see how they are doing. I would like to make more time for school because I am falling behind but this week I really been on it. The steps I plan to utilize the 168 hours a week is to have a routine and stick by it to be more efficient.

I would be working and saving up money or just focusing on myself more and exercising and cooking my own food instead of eating out.

I'd say my priorities are definitely in the right place. In actuality, I only devote a few hours to activities that won't benefit me in the long run. such as simply using my phone or watching television. I do my homework for the majority of the morning. I get out of bed around nine and begin my homework. I typically finish at around three in the afternoon. I typically play video games after, and I start cooking at around five o'clock. I have practice from 8 to 9 after I finish my chores. I don't necessarily put things off or race against the clock because I have good discipline. I am well-organized and reliable. I don't need to make a list for friends because I have friends, but I should call my family more often, so I will work on that.

might you assert your priorities are in order? -
I sense like my priorities are in order for the maximum part except faculty. I generally tend to get actually distracted by means of other things whilst doing faculty paintings and that is why I barely get it achieved.
Do you sense like you are continuously racing in opposition to the clock? -
yes, while it comes to school work I experience like i'm racing the clock.
Do you procrastinate why or why now not?
yes, I constantly procrastinate because i'm usually like that i'm able to begin my paintings in an hour and then switch it up and add another hour.
family: I would really like to spend greater time with my older brother due to the fact i have gotten truly close to him ever when you consider that I moved to Florida these days toward him.
faculty: i would actually need to spend greater time on college because I need excellent grades to assist my baseball scholarships.
Relationships: i'd say I best talk to my boys in ny where i am from due to the fact I just moved to Miami and i do not certainly just like the human beings down here and i am continually with my female friend down right here so my friendship circle is clearly small.
in which might I be losing the ones 168 hours?: i would say I waste those hours on baseball and continually going out to places and placing out with my girlfriend.
How will I "benefit manage of my unfastened time?":
I plan on waking up actually early and doing faculty and then cross teach baseball because I spend maximum of my time on that.

Would you say your priorities are in order? - I think I have improved somewhat on this, though I still do have my issues here in there. Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock? - I relate to this a lot actually, I always tend to procrastinate then worry about things last minute, its a bit of an unhealthy habit that I'm attempting to fix Do you procrastinate why or why not? As I've mentioned earlier, yes I do in fact procrastinate. Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. What would you like to make more time for and why? - Family: I would make time to spend with my mom School: I'd try to get things in on time. Relationships: Try to keep in touch with friends that I haven't talked to in a while. If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them? - A lot actually, gaming, drawing, writing, reading. A lot can come from a week of doing nothing. Though the accomplishments I make in any of these areas I don't think would be counted as wasted hours per say. What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"? I plan on going to the gym more often.

I feel that for the most part I am pretty good at managing my time. As an athlete you do not have the time to fall behind anywhere so it's not like a have much of a choice. I used to procrastinate a lot. But then I realized that the feel of getting something done is better than not doing something that you know you have to do. When it comes to time management, I have a very rigid schedule. 4 hours of school in the morning. 2 hours of hockey in the afternoon and an hour in the gym after that. With things like lunch and breaks included I look at about 10–12-hour days out of the house. The only thing I could do better is the use of that 4 hours of school. Sometimes I may take breaks when I don't need them. Now this doesn't cause me to fall behind, but it does stop me from getting ahead.

I would say right now in my life my priorities are in order. I go to school, work and come back home and spend quality time with my family. Yes, I feel like I am constantly racing against the clock. The reason I say this is because even if I wake up at 7am I always feel like time runs out on me. Yes, I do procrastinate. I always say, "I'll do it later". Then later comes on and I continue to do the same thing, till it's last minute and I have no other choice but to finish it.
In school I feel like I should invest more time into studying and when it comes to my family I would love to be able to always be home with them and share time. I would like to make more time for my family because I feel like last summer, I was extremely away from my family and focused on the wrong things. I wasted a lot of my time. If I had 168 hours to empty, I'd divide between family, friends, school and work. My everyday routine. Some steps I will take towards gaining power of my own time would be organizing more my days and planning things ahead.

How to gain control of my career, questions

2023-10-13 13:12:09 UTC

Are my priorities in order? 100% of my priorities are in order, and more so than ever. I do not take school as my primary priority, it can take a back seat to my career in the Navy. Even as my second priority, I should have no trouble passing my last year swimmingly so it's okay that it takes 2nd. As for how I have my priorities in order, I work out at least 6 hours a day 6 days a week and mentally train myself on the structure of government, economics, foreign diplomacy, and Leadership. I do this because I wish to serve my country not only as a soldier but as a member of public service. I work incredibly hard every day and additionally, I also complete schoolwork online.

Do I feel as if I am racing against the clock? Yes, I do. As much as I know how much time I have left, I also understand critically that the human body is something that takes time to perfect, I feel I will be ready but the sense of urgency keeps me locked in. Additionally, it gives me a sense of guilt and anger when I realize how much time I have wasted and this propels me to push with all I have with the time I do have.

Do I procrastinate? Yes of course everyone procrastinates, however I don't do it as much as I'd like to because I have set times for everything I'm supposed to do, if I don't get it done on time it is failure so I don’t have a lot of time to procrastinate.

My list

God, my faith is one thing I neglected to share above, it is not something I can describe on a meager page, it is something that even surrounded and entrenched will not be forsaken. This is not something I can put into words but the ferocity I bring to life is propelled by my faith, my faith justifies my decisions and even in the worst of conditions the legacy of my life and faith in Jesus Christ steadies my resolve and silently guides my every decision.

Country, Everything I do is for my Country. I am the son of an immigrant, we came to this country with not but two pennies to rub together, and we now live in one of the wealthiest towns in America. My family is from Cuba, and I have seen what communism and evil have done to this country. I am a student of history, and I will dedicate my life to defeating it. I know that such horrors lurk in the corners of Washington, in the world, and even in our communities. I am inspired by the actions of our forefathers, namely George Washington, James Madison, and all of the founding fathers. Most people do not know the sacrifices they made to give us these freedoms, an undeniable truth is that people are coming to take these freedoms. We must not let them win.

If you truly had those 168 hours a week where are you wasting them?

If i waste any time, it is in the times that i am not actively bettering myself, perhaps when i watch tv or a show. There is only so much you can do when you have to account for resting periods to grow your muscles and regenerate your wounds.

I dont have plans to change my life as it is working but i will bring a fiercer approach to it.

How to Gain Control of Your Free Time

2023-10-24 13:42:09 UTC

I would say my priorities are in order as I feel like I have enough time in my day to do what I need and want to do.
I do feel like I'm racing against the clock because, with all of the things that play into my life, I try to make sure to have time and or energy to do whatever needs to be done at that moment.
Yes, because sometimes life can be a bit messy and lead to less-than-great results but procrastination is normal and happens anywhere and at any time even if it is random.

My List

Career Options

I want to get into the gaming industry because video games have forged not only ideals that I hold near to my heart but new relationships with people that I know very well and care for very much. Though the industry is expansive with plenty of positions to look at, so it is hard to choose what to choose and when to choose it.

If I Had 168 Hours a Week to Work With

I would spend my time in fourths as it allows me to spend time with family, friends, school/career scouting, and time to spend by myself. With fourths in mind, I would spend 42 hours with each of the categories I laid out for myself.

Wladimir Francis

Would you say your priorities are in order?

I would say my priorities are definitely in order. I’m in school and doing my work. I appreciate and help my family with whatever they need help with or enjoy leisure activities with them. I’m working towards my future career of being a professional soccer player by training every single day and networking.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?

I don’t feel like I’m constantly racing against the clock because I try to use my time wisely each day and I appreciate every moment of my life. I also don’t feel this way because no one is pressuring me from the outside, except semester deadlines, and I’m young.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?

I procrastinate; usually on days when I’m playing a soccer game or training for a long time. If not, then I try to stay on top of my “To-Do list” but some activities take time away from others; whether it be seeing a movie in theaters, soccer practice, a slideshow project for English class, or taking a nap.

Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.

School; I have to read through all the lessons and complete my assignments. I have found the easiest way to do this is to complete the biggest assignments first and the smaller assignments that take up much less time later on. Doing big assignment at the start of the week and smaller ones at the end of the week seems to be the best order for me.
Family; I have to help my family with chores and enjoy time with them at home, the mall, an amusement park, a cruise, or wherever we happen to go together.
Relationships; I have to spend time with my friends, make new ones, and potentially get a girlfriend at some point.

What would you like to make more time for and why?

I would make more time for my family, friends, and activities away from school and soccer. I don’t really have a hobby besides watching TV and movies and I would like to learn new skills or find something else I like to do apart from soccer.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?

If I had 168 empty hours a week, I would use 63 to sleep (9 hours a day), 50 of them being with or helping my family, 45 with my friends, and 20 finding or doing a new hobby or challenge, whether it be writing, painting, playing video games, collecting, or learning how to do a backflip.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?

I plan on outlining my weeks through a “Procrastination Prevention Planner” where I outline my priorities for the week, including but not limited to, sleep, meals, school, and soccer, and slotting as much time as possible for time with family, friends, and new hobbies.

How to gain control of your free time?

2024-03-14 23:01:42 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order?

I would say my priorities are in order. I am doing school while taking care of my baby. I am also committed to graduating and enrolling in sonography school. I am also committed to being a good partner, wife, mom, and student. I also prioritize things that matter like my future and god. Rather than partying and doing bad things that kids in this generation do for "fun".

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?

Yes, I do feel this way because doing school and taking care of a newborn is very time consuming. I am always tired and putting off assignments. I tend to rush and stress to meet deadlines for assignments. I try to make sure I don't leave assignments for past due but its sometimes hard to sit down and focus on one thing while im always getting interrupted.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or Why not?

Before I became a mom I would never procrastinate. Now that I am a mom it is sometimes hard to juggle a million things at once. From doctors appointments to feeding times to wellness checkups its a lot. I tend to procrastinate homework assignments because I am either tired or I need a mental health break from all the assignments. I am usually taking a lot of breaks and then comes the day the assignment is due and im cramming it all into one.

MY LIST

School: I have to stop procrastinating. Maybe if I create a goal of doing 3 assignments a day , I won't have many assignments by the time they are due. I can also find someone to watch the baby whilst im doing homework so I can focus and get it assignments done. I can also prioritize my sleep and sleep all morning so I can do homework all afternoon, and then rest in the evening.
Family: I need to work on spending more time with my family and making an effort to visit them. Although its been a hard first months with a newborn I have been secluded. Now that he's 2 months I will go see them after school and spend time with them. Maybe have dinner once a week and visit my grandparents more often while they are still here.
Relationships: I need to work on being kinder to my partner during stressful times. With a baby times can get stressful but I will keep the mindset that my partner is my teammate not my enemy. I will work on myself and my emotions better to be the best version of myself for my husband and my baby boy and those around me.

What would you like to make more time for and why?

I would like to make more time for my siblings. Although I have a new life and a new family I can't forget about the family I grew up with. They are the most important people to me, they are my best friends and I love them so much. It hurts me to be away from people I created my best memories with, memories that made me who I am. Even though it is hard with a baby I want to try and make more time for them as he gets older. Now that summer break is approaching I will be hanging out with them more.

If I had 168 hours a week, where are you wasting them?

If I had 168 hours a week I would use 63 to sleep. 50 with my family , 45 going out and doing something new, and 20 working or finding a business idea to help provide for my family.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free. time"?

I plan on getting a planner and planning my days before they start. As well as creating a schedule of how much time to spend on homework each day that way I can divide my time equally. I will also get a mini white board and write out important things in big letters so I do not forget them along with the time. Lastly I will get ready an hour in advance to avoid delays and never be late.

2024-03-15 22:36:05 UTC

My priorities are in order: I skate for 12 hours a week, work out for 7 hours off the ice, and complete my schoolwork early.
I would not say that I am running against the clock, as I have gotten good at realizing that there are 24 hours in a day, and I can use all of them if I need to. So when you think like that, then you start to divide. You need only nine hours of sleep, so you get 15 hours daily to get stuff done. If you can't get everything you need to complete in 15 hours, you waste a lot of time trying to answer number.
Yes, I do sometimes, but I rarely do, and if I do, I make up for it by doing twice the work to make up for what I lost.
My list
1. In school, I made the honor roll again, finished early, and improved my understanding of the technical aspects of online school.
2. Relationships ask my coaches more and better questions about improving myself as an athlete, keeping in better contact with my friends and surrounding myself with even less negativity.
3. I will keep in better contact with my family and meet up with them in person.
  I will spend 168 hours like this in a week: 15 hours skating/playing hockey, 63 sleeping, 7 working out in the gym, 20 hours on school, 10 hours with my friends, and spend the rest of them enjoying myself or to be total, I get 53 extra hours to do whatever.

How to gain control of your free time?

Would you say your priorities are in order?

Honestly, I believe, I do keep my priorities in order. First of all I'm in school looking for job opportunities or applying to colleges. I'm a very ambitious person, and even if I'm sure of the outcome. I'm willing to persevere through it anyway no matter the ups and downs it's all about risk-taking and stepping out of your comfort zone. I'm committed to being the best version of myself. Being a student, role model, making my family proud, and do stuff with time and care. Also, I'm a true worshiper of God, and I know he'll lead me in the right path, so being a leader not a follower so don't get peer-pressured into doing anything reckless or stupid to get into serious trouble or even death.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?

Judging from my point of view, I would say indeed I feel like I'm constantly racing against the clock. I'm always put in a predicament where I have to do this, or I have to do that in order to get that. Most of time it's very stressful and I feel like time got it out for me because I'm put into this position to know everything. Then get things done in a timely manner that is suitable to my liking which sometimes never work out. However, I do feel like if I keep prioritizing my life and take those risks to live the life I want to live God will help me along the way. Maybe then, will I really feel like I'm not racing against the clock that much.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?

Honestly, yes I have and do procrastinate especially when it comes to school work, because it sometimes gets frustrated or boring. Sometimes I just need some sort of distraction to get away from that stress or the boredom. In addition, when I watch movies or tv series I definitely procrastinate because I like a handful of genres when to come to watching movies and tv series. However, sometimes bing-watching those movies and shows I sometimes lose interest and get tired of it and put it off for another time or not even revisit just for the sake of time and my mental.

My census

School: I definitely have to stop procrastinating and buckle in. I'm a senior and this is my last year before college or what my future endeavors are. Also, since this is my last year it's absolutely important to put in my best effort, and finish off strong and not slack or else it will catch up to me and karma is a real pain, and real so I want to avoid that at all costs and do what I know is right for myself and the shape for my future.

Family: I need to work on spending more time with my family and working on relationships that needs fixing, even it means traveling or just having a deep intricate conversation with that family member and get back to the good days. Also, I need to save money to plan trips with my family, and the family I want to have so I can capture those memories and live life to the fullest before that adolescence kicks in.

Relationships: I need to work on my social skills because sometimes I need to be serious and I'm not and sometimes just joke about certain things that should be taken more serioiusly. Which I can definitely work on it's all about shaping myself and learning from my weaknesses.

What would you want more time for and why?

I would want more time with my grandmother, because I look up to her, I love her, and she's such a huge impact on my family that just having the days to share that beauty and the compassionate person she's I would want to have more time for that. If everlasting moments and memories was a thing I would want time have it with my grandmother who is just one of the main reasons I am who I am, and she just has a place in my heart that I can never take for granted.

If I had 168 hours a week, where are you wasting your time?

Oh I would definitely waste my time traveling, bing watching movies and shows, eating exotic foods, and just explore and get out my comfort zone. Especially like going on a hot air balloon or going zip-lining on a cruise again. Oh and one more thing go sky-diving or visiting a volcano and really learn about the geographic composition of our beloved planet Earth.

What are some steps you are taking to "gain control of your free time?"

Some guidelines that I have set for myself in order to obtain this "control of free time" is one making sure that all times I'm doing things to the best of my ability and not slack, basically no procrastinating. Next, prioritize myself even more and add things to help me in the long-run and become that version of myself that I know I can be. Finally, I would say just believing and praying to God to hear my prayers and wisdom to allow him to watch over me and help me walk in his footsteps to the beauty of life is what I want. I want to be in the hands of God and be the man he wants me to be because I'm a child of God, and because he told me so.

2024-03-16 14:45:58 UTC

My priorities are definitely in order. I keep God as number 1 always as he fulfills everything that I do through his teachings and his word. I also only focus on baseball and school. I refrain from going out with my friends because I know the fun times I’m missing out on now will all be worth it in the end. I am also recently prioritizing the gym a lot more as I know the stronger I am the more recruit able I become to college coaches.
I wouldn’t say I feel like I’m always racing against the clock but I do sometimes feel the pressure. With me being a senior this year I know this is my last chance at getting the best grades possible for a school to recruit me for baseball. I also feel the pressure balancing baseball and school as I do travel a lot so I’m constantly working to not fall so behind on school work.
Procrastinating has to be one of my biggest flaws. I always have the saying, “I’ll just do it tomorrow” so I definitely need to get better at becoming productive and doing things in advance as it well lessen my work loads.
School: I need to take it more seriously as most times I am always procrastinating and turning assignments in late. It’s hard because baseball takes up a lot of my time but that is no excuse, I need to learn how to manage my time.
Family: I want to be able to spend more time with my family. I am gone from 9-5 doing baseball and my mom works from home so she’s usually there with my little brother. She understands that I’m working hard for a better future for us but at times we do just want to have a simple family dinner but our schedules don’t line up.
Relationships: My coaches are always very helpful but I need to learn how to take constructive criticism better. I sometimes take it as they’re attacking me but they are talking from a place of love and experience. They simply want me to play better.
I want to make more time for my family. At the end of the day they are my backbone and without them I don’t know where I would be. I also want to make more time for God and grow closer to him. Everything that I do needs to be through and for him.
If I had 168 hours to waste I would try to train as much as possible because I know my ultimate goal is to play professional baseball and until I’m being paid to play there shouldn’t be off days.
I am going to start writing my weeks out on a schedule planner so I have a better view of what I must get done and also how much free time I have for the week for my family and God.

Would you say your priorities are in order?

My family provides a strong support system and emotional connection, which is important for my well being. My health ensures that I can maintain a good quality of life and be there for my family. And prioritizing my grades are also they important for education and future success. It's a balanced approach that can lead to a fulfilling life.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock? Feeling like I’m constantly on the clock can be overwhelming, especially when you're juggling responsibilities like school, personal life, and family. i would have to remember to also carve out time for self-care and relaxation to recharge. i also believe that time goes way to fast as you get older and you have to live in the moment.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not? i do when I’m overworked and I’m too tiered to do it. i usually say to my self that tomorrows problem and when it get to next day I’m so confused? it one of my weaker points and i know that i can fix it if i try hard. i just need to focus on areas that im week in and ask for help.

school :

me and school have never been good to each other but i have been getting better. lately i have been reading more and looking up thing to help me in school. in the mean time i ask my family for help when im struggling in subjects.

relationships :

i do care for the relationships that i have made over my life. i would say my strongest relationship is me and my sister. my mom and dad have always been there for me and will be there. my time with them is very precious.

family :

my family is the best the i hang out with them as much as i can when i not working or in school.

What would you like to make more time for and why? stay with my family. my life can sometimes be stressful but if I’m with my family I’m good.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?

with my family everyday all the time.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?

stop worrying about how I’m spending my day and just try to to organize my seclude.

I do believe I keep my priorities in order, no matter what happens I always keep family and school at the top. as I believe that those 2 will always end up being 2 of the most important things in my life.
Most of the time I do not feel like I am racing against the clock. Because school being my second priority I will always do what I can to stay ahead or on pace. However there are the weeks where it just doesn't go according to plan and I do end up rushing some assignments because it is getting down to the wire. Some weeks there are real reasons why I didnt get to catch up on school but on the other hand there are the times where I do procrastinate which I am not proud of and trying to break the habit.
school. I uaually waste my hours doing something like video games when I could do myself a favor and get my school done then so next week is easier.

Second is my relationships. I am already close with my parents but with a few empty hours why not just strengthen our bond by talking about hockey or something he likes.

1. Yes, I would say I keep my priorities in order. I think It is a great order having family and sports. As my family motivates me to perform better and excel. Giving me motivation for sports as well so I can get better.

No, I do not feel like I am constantly racing against the clock. As I skate and workout in the morning so I can get it over with. Still giving me plenty of of time to do school work after working out. And when I have time left over after that, I can play games, and hangout with my friends.

Yes, sometimes I do, procrastinate. I mostly procrastinate when I am busy or tired, I just say I will do it later. Doing this can cause me to get behind on things like schoolwork. Also I can get ahead of myself and forget about it.

School

In school I have never been the best, but I am getting better. I procrastinate sometimes which can cause me to be behind rather than ahead. When I am procrastinating I fall behind and don’t do well. While when I don’t procrastinate I get ahead and do well.

Relationships

In relationships It is a little awkward until I get to know you. But I do care a lot about them, because real friends are great and can help a lot. I have a couple really great friends. It is nice knowing that we both would help each other no matter how low things get.

Family

I am not at home from 6-3, but my family knows I am getting better. Spending time with my family is one of my favorite things. As I have a great family and we all love each other. We spend a decent amount of time together, but I would like to spend more, as we our not together in the mornings.

I would like to make more time to spend with my family. This is because they motivate me and love me and I feel like I don’t give it back enough. Though I love them I feel I don’t give them enough, because I don’t spend that much time with them. I just feel like I don’t spend enough time with them as they give me everything.

If I had 168 hours to spare, I would spend most of the time with my family and friends. But then train for my sports to get better. I would like to spend time with my friends to hangout and have fun. But then lock in and train for hockey and work out later with time. I feel like I am wasting the time when I am on my phone in my free time.

Some steps I plan to take to “Gain control of my free time” are. To spend less time on my phone or watching tv, to be able to spend more time with my family or working out. That is really the only free time I have in the day. So I feel as if I got rid of it, I could do more with my family and more training.

My priorities are definitely in order. I keep God as number 1 always as he fulfills everything that I do through his teachings and his word. I also only focus on baseball and school. I refrain from going out with my friends because I know the fun times I’m missing out on now will all be worth it in the end. I am also recently prioritizing the gym a lot more as I know the stronger I am the more recruit able I become to college coaches.

1) I would say my priorities are in order, I always prioritize God first then my family they always seem to keep me in line when i make mistakes and are always there for me, then I have school and hockey.

2) Yes I always feel like im racing against the clock i’m not very good at time management, it’s hard to manage hockey, school, friends and family and a girlfriend. I’m always late for events because im catching up on the last thing.

3) Yes I procrastinate all the time, I always tell myself i’m going to do it then I put it off until the last minute and never can get them done when they’re first given to me.

school: With school i’m not a very big fan of it i’m never excited doing the work but ik its a going to play a big role in my life so it feels good when I study and get a good grade on a test or when I finish all my work for the week.

Relationships: I am a very caring person so my relationships mean the world to me. My strongest relationship would most likely be my dad, I can always tell him anything and he is always there for me no matter what. Although I will always cherish my relationship with my family, my girlfriend, and my friends.

Family: My family is everything to me, they have always been there for me no matter what, we have gone through so much together through the past years but we came out better and stronger people.

What would you make more time for?

I would make more time for my family, I spend a lot of my time doing school and playing hockey, hanging out with my friends, and my girlfriend, its hard to also make a lot of time for my family. But when I do have time it’s enjoyable with them.

168 hours: If I had 168 hours I would waste them on hockey, bowling, hanging out with my girlfriend and friends, then whatever time I have left I would spend time with my family. The time I spend with my girlfriend is very precious to me and the time I spend with my family is cherished.

Some steps I plan on taking to gain control of my free time is to finish all my school work first so then I clear that time up, then I would create a schedule of things I would want to do with the people I would want to do it with, and at the end of the day come home and spend time with my family

I would say my priorities are in order for the most part. I believe hockey comes first, family comes next, then school and friends. Sometimes the order switches based on the importance of the task at hand.
I only feel I am racing against the clock in the early mornings. I am not much of a morning person and the hockey rink is a far drive so I have to get up really early to pack everything and get ready and that is sometimes a challenge. However, the rest of my days are pretty organized and easy going.
Yes, I procrastinate sometimes only with school work but once I get started I commit to it and I finish the task, I hate leaving loose ends and im not one to hand in late assignments I try my best to hand them in when they are due and not late. I procrastinate because I do not enjoy school.
Family- Instead of playing video games and having so much alone time I could take an extra hour to play hockey outside with my brothers or spend more time with my family playing games or just hanging out at home more.
School- I wouldn’t wait till the deadline to do my work I would start my work sooner, instead of spending my time scrolling on my phone or watching TV. I could make a written schedule so I can spread my work out and make it easier rather than backloading it and having less time to do it all.
Relationships- I would get my homework done so I could spend more time with my girlfriend on the weekends when she is free. I could coordinate my schedule with hers so I can plan to have more free time where I can see her.
168 hours- If I had 168 extra hours I would put most of the hours into training for hockey so I can develop enough to get to where I want to go in life. I would put the rest of the hours into spending time with my family as they are the people I love most and I feel they deserve the best. I also really enjoy spending time with them. I believe i am wasting my time by not practicing every moment I can or scrolling on my phone for hours throughout the day.

2024-09-23 18:09:22 UTC

I would say that my priority are in order in I constantly like to be ahead the clock cuz I like to be preper for everything, I don’t sometimes procrastinate either I forget to do it or I just let it for later because Im doing something that I really wanted to do
I would like to spend more time with my family because we don’t usually do cuz everyone has things to do like job or school and when we see each other is at night and everyone is already tired so I would like to do more activities with them.
If i had all those hours i would do a lot of activities and spend at lot of time focusing on myself and doing new things

I feel like I do have my priorities set properly. I always know that school and soccer are my priorities before anything else. Then comes family time and extra curriculars.
I don't really ever feel like I am racing against the clock, as I try to anticipate things before they become problems, so that I do not have to stress.
Sometimes I tend to procrastinate, but it is very rare that I do. I always have a schedule in place so that I know when things need to be done.
School is my main priority, as it is what is going to help me later on in life. If I don't do well in school, I will not be able to support my family.
Family is my next priority, and it is something I value a lot. Family time to me is something that clears my mind and fills me with peace whenever it is needed. I feel that I am around people I am safe with when I am around family.
Relationships is the last priority. Love life and friendships are definitely important. However, without the first two I cannot be focused on relationships.
If I had 168 extra hours I would definitely take the time to practice more on soccer and get extra work done in school.

2024-10-17 19:49:37 UTC

I would say my priorities are in order, as I know what is most important for me in this life. I build a system around my priorities to be as time efficient as possible.
I wouldn’t think that I am ever against the clock, as I would describe myself as a proactive type of person, and whenever I see a problem or something I have to do, I face it head-on.
I am normally an organized guy and I would like to say that I am pretty efficient with my time, but I would be lying if I said that I never procrastinate. It is pretty rare, but there are times where I feel like not doing anything so I just lay on my bed and watch TV or anything like that.
My main priority is my family, as they are the people who have given me life and have taken care of me all of my life. They are the people that have made me become the person I am today, and they are the ones that have instilled all of my beliefs and values.
Although school is probably more important, my second priority would be relationships. Love and friendships will be there for you for the rest of your life, and they will teach you lessons that you can’t learn anywhere else. I would consider myself a social person, and I have grown really close to some very good friends, and they have helped me through many rough stages in my life.
My third priority is school, as it kind of decides my future. Hopefully in college I figure out who and what I really want to be, and hopefully it sets me up for success. Although school is really that important, my first two priorities shape me as a person and make me be who I am today.
If I had an extra 168 hours, I would definitely make it count by practicing soccer, studying and doing homework, but most importantly I would spend time with my friends and family and make every second count.

I believe my priorities are in order, for the most part, my priorities start with god, next come family, next school, and finally friends but the order sometimes switches.
I sometimes feel like I'm racing against the clock, it's primarily when I don't plan my day out, or multiple things disrupt my day plan
yes, i sometimes procrastinate but only with difficult school work, once i feel overwhelmed i decide to leave it for another day or later but when it comes down to it i always end up doing the work.
Family - instead of spending time in my room watching television, I could spend more time outside with my mom or visit my sisters more often.
School - I wouldn't wait for the deadline to finish everything. I would try to stick more to my schedule to make it easier for me.
Relationships - I would make sure to finish my work as quickly and efficiently as possible to spend more time with my boyfriend when he comes visit or talk on the phone once I've finished all the work.
168 hours - if I had 168 hours, I would put in the time for the goals I have to get to my future career and also spend time with my family and boyfriend. I believe I waste a lot of time scrolling on my phone for hours or just sleeping more than I should.

1. I would say that my priorities are somewhat in order, but there is definitely room for improvement. I tend to focus a lot on my school work, which is important, but sometimes at the expense of my relationships and personal well-being. I need to find a better balance to ensure that I'm not neglecting other important aspects of my life.

2. Yes, I often feel like I'm racing against the clock. With a busy schedule filled with classes, homework, and extracurricular activities, it can be challenging to find time for everything. This constant rush can be stressful and overwhelming at times.

3. I do procrastinate, and I think it's because I sometimes feel overwhelmed by the tasks at hand. When I have a lot to do, I tend to put things off, thinking that I'll have more time later. However, this usually leads to more stress as deadlines approach.

- School: I would like to make more time for thorough studying and understanding the material, rather than just completing assignments. I also want to participate more in class discussions and group projects.
- Relationships: I want to spend more quality time with my friends and family. This includes having meaningful conversations and doing activities together.
Family: I would like to help out more at home and be more present during family gatherings.

If I had those 168 empty hours a week, I think I am wasting time on social media and watching TV. Some steps I plan on taking to gain control of my free time include setting specific goals for each day, using a planner to keep track of tasks, and setting aside dedicated time for relaxation and hobbies.

How to gain control of your free time

2025-03-10 18:01:39 UTC

Organizing your time is essential to managing your daily responsibilities. Reflecting on my priorities, I would say that, for the most part, I am able to prioritize the right things. However, sometimes I find myself spending too much time on less urgent tasks or distractions, which can make it feel like there is never enough time. Laura Vanderkam, in her speech, invites the audience to create a list of priorities. Here are mine:

School: I would like to dedicate more time to studying and not have to do everything at the last minute. I also want to improve my organization, so I have more time for revision and to avoid overload before exams.

Relationships: I want to spend more quality time with friends and family, without being too distracted by my phone or other unimportant activities.

Family: I would like to spend more time with my parents and sister, especially in free moments, to strengthen our bond.

If I really had 168 free hours a week, I would realize that some of them are wasted on unproductive activities, such as time spent on social media or procrastinating instead of tackling important tasks right away. To "gain control of my free time", I can adopt a few strategies:

Plan my days better, breaking up tasks into blocks of time.

Avoid distractions while studying, for example by putting my phone away.

Set clear and achievable goals for each day.

Prioritize rest to be more productive during the day.

By following these strategies, I can improve my time management and better balance my studies, relationships, and free time.

I would say my priorities are in order to some extent they could definitely be better I focus a lot on school work which is great but it causes me to neglect my family & friends along with my Personal well-being I could definitely use some balance so I'm not neglecting the people I care about.
Yes Because I procrastinate I usually don't submit assignments until the day before or the actual day its due which makes me feel like I'm in a serious time crunch and it's super stressful.
unfortunately I do procrastinate and I think its because if I think a assignment is to hard I just let it sit on the to-do list until I feel like doing it or until I finally ask for help.
- School I would like more time to study and reviewing so once I get to class I'll really understand the topic
- Relationships I really want to spend more time with my friends whether its just talking on the phone or going to see a movie.
- Family I would Love to travel more with my family and make long lasting memories.
If I had 168 empty hours a week Half of those is most likely spent on catching up on TV shows or really getting into my hobbies & last but definitely not least talking & bonding with my Mama.
To "Gain control of my free time" I just have to plan my days better break up all the tasks I have to do & make sure they get done Avoid distractions like my phone and set easy achievable goals while also not forgetting to rest.

1 I would say that my priorities are in order because I have a schedule that helps me keep track of what I do and what I need to do. This helps organize my week, so it is as effective as possible.

2 Yes, I do feel that I am always against the clock because I have too many things to do and have little spear time. Sometimes I get late to events or meetings because I was too busy doing something else and lost track of time.

3 I only procrastinate with homework because I do not like doing it and it feels like a waste of time. Other than that, I do not procrastinate.

4 My main priority in the list is family. My family is everything to me, it means the world to me and what they do to make me happy is admirable. All the love and support they gave me throughout my life is incomparable that is why they are my main priority.

5 My second priority in this list is relationships. This is crucial because those persons are the ones that make a difference when you are having a bad day. All the memories that I have with my friends are beautiful and they are the ones that supported me through thick and thin as well as my family.

6 My last priority in the list is school and schoolwork. I do not like school and all the stress that is put into students to perform academically well. All those test that dictates your future do not make sense because some students are not good test takers.

7 If I had 168 extra hours I would practice more soccer and spend more time with friends and family.

Would you say your priorities are in order?
Mostly, but there are times I get distracted or focus too much on one thing and let other things slide.
Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
Yes, sometimes. There is always something to do, and it feels like there is never enough time to do it all.
Do you procrastinate? why or why not?
Yes, I do. Usually, it is because a task feels too big, boring, or stressful. I tell myself I´ll do it later, but that just makes it worse.
If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
Probably I would read something, watch any anime, or go to the beach.
What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
I want to plan my days better, set small goals, and cut down on pointless scrolling.

2025-04-01 18:23:44 UTC

1) I try to manage my priorities, and I know school comes first, but I don't always complete them on time.

My health is paramount, and there are things I can't and shouldn't do.

I do my job responsibly and happily, and I enjoy it with my family and share it as much as I can.

2) I don't feel like this is against the clock, it actually took me time and sometimes too much, I know it's wrong, I try to improve it day by day

3) I procrastinate, my main problem is the language, that's why I take so long to submit my work, but I also always look for something else to do.

4) If I had 168 hours free, I would go to the beach with my family, watch series or get together with friends to play soccer.

5) My plans are to go help my dad with his football work since it is something that I am passionate about and I enjoy spending time with him.

2) I procrastinate all the time I always make excuses not to do my schoolwork. I try and stay on topic by doing schoolwork somewhere else and focusing by putting my headphones in but yet I just get really bored of the topic.

3) I will "gain control of my free time" by setting a schedule and sticking to it. I will spend more time with my family every night at dinner. Also, have a game night or movie night. I feel i am wasting time on my phone just scrolling so I will limit my screen time.

1. Would you say your priorities are in order?

I try to keep my priorities in order, and I find it to be an ongoing reminder every week for some of them. My family and the people I care about, school work, and my personal well-being are at the top of my list. Priorities can also change their focus depending on the week or day, like if I am on holiday I don’t think about schoolwork.

2. Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?

Yes, I do race against the clock sometimes when it comes to schoolwork, especially if it is a big project. I procrastinate and submit some assignments on the due date. I think at times I definitely don’t manage time as well as I think.

3. Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?

Yes, I do procrastinate when it comes to school assignments. Sometimes if it is a subject I don’t like very much, I will wait until the last minute to do it. However, when it comes to going to a place I like or looking for something new I am excited about, I do not procrastinate. So I guess motivation is an important factor.

4. If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?

I’ll love to travel more, spend time with my family and friends, especially I always try to spend time with my grandma and she appreciates it very much. I will stop procrastinating about going to the gym, for my personal wellbeing. I will keep improving my education at school and learning new things. Like I am interested in photography lately and I’ll like to learn more about it.

5. What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?

Some steps to “grain control of my free time” could be to plan my days better. I will limit my screen time. Keep spending time with my family and friends. Do the new things I want to learn and get me excited. “We have time for what matters”, so we should remind ourselves of what matters and share the time to do it.

sgarc130 — 2025-04-25 13:57:08 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order?
I would say my priorities are a yes and a no. I am a full time athlete so i cant really go to a lot of zoom classes, or sometimes get a full understanding of the lesson, so because of that it makes me not want to do the more complex assignments. But i definitely try and stay on my work as best as i can.
Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
Honestly, sometimes i do. I stay at home from when i wake up till about 2 then i leave for practice. On top of that, I help take care of my 2 siblings. I also train every day from 3-7. I get home, shower, shower my siblings, cook occasionally, and do the dishes.
Do you procrastinate (be honest)?
i feel like everyone procrastinates. But yes, I do. I do get my homework done at the end of it though. Well, weather its homework or any other normal task.
What would you like to make more time for and why?
I would like to make more time for my family. I wish we could go on more vacations as a family. Or to the beach. I would really like to spend more time with my grandparents. They live a bit far from me so its harder to see them. I would really like to get my bike fixed too. If i had 168 empty hours a week half of them would most likley be spent on scrolling through my phone and most definitely doing my laundry.

Anthony O'Dell

Are my priorities in order? I believe my priorities are somewhat in order, but there is always room for improvement. I focus on school, relationships, and personal growth, but sometimes urgent tasks overshadow long-term goals.
Do I feel like I am constantly racing against the clock? Yes, at times. Between school assignments, extracurricular activities, and personal responsibilities, I often feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day. However, Vanderkam’s approach to time management suggests that I can take control by prioritizing effectively.
Do I procrastinate? Why or why not? I do procrastinate occasionally, especially when tasks feel overwhelming. Sometimes, I delay work because I feel I have plenty of time, only to realize later that I should have started earlier. Recognizing this habit helps me work on better time management strategies.
If I truly had those 168 empty hours a week, I would work on:

School: I want to make more time for studying efficiently rather than cramming at the last minute.
Relationships: Spending quality time with friends and family is important, and I need to ensure I’m not neglecting them due to schoolwork.
Family: I want to dedicate more time to meaningful conversations and shared activities with my family.

Steps to Gain Control of My Free Time:

Identify time-wasting habits – I will track how I spend my time and eliminate unnecessary distractions.
Plan ahead – Scheduling my week in advance will help me allocate time for important tasks.
Prioritize effectively – I will focus on tasks that align with my long-term goals rather than just urgent ones.
Use small moments wisely – Instead of scrolling on my phone, I can use short breaks for meaningful activities.

dfernandez008 — 2025-05-14 16:30:16 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order?
Yes, I believe my priorities are definitely in order. I’m focused on my education and make sure to complete my schoolwork. I also value my family, and I make time to help them out or enjoy fun activities together. On top of that, I’m committed to my future career as a professional soccer player—I train daily and continue to build connections in the sport.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?
Not really. I try to manage my time well and live each day with purpose. I don’t feel pressure from others, and aside from school deadlines, I’m able to work at my own pace. Being young gives me some flexibility to enjoy life while staying focused.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?
I do procrastinate sometimes, especially after intense training sessions or soccer games. On those days, I’m usually drained. When I’m not exhausted, I stay on top of my to-do list. But I’ve noticed that some activities take more time than expected—like going to the movies, working on a big English project, or even just needing a nap—so that can throw off my schedule a bit.

Laura’s Lists – Focused on School, Relationships, and Family

School:
I need to complete my readings and assignments. What works best for me is tackling the biggest assignments early in the week and saving the quicker tasks for later. This helps me stay organized and less overwhelmed.

Family:
I make an effort to help out with chores and enjoy quality time with my family—whether we’re relaxing at home or going somewhere fun like the mall, an amusement park, or even on a cruise.

Relationships:
It’s important for me to maintain friendships, meet new people, and maybe start a relationship when the time feels right.

What would you like to make more time for and why?
I’d like to make more time for my family, friends, and personal interests outside of school and soccer. Right now, I don’t have many hobbies besides watching movies and TV. I’d love to explore new skills or passions that give me a break from my regular routine.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?
If I had a full 168 hours to spend how I wanted, I’d use about 63 hours for sleep (9 hours a night), 50 with family, 45 with friends, and 20 exploring a new hobby or challenge—like writing, gaming, painting, collecting, or even learning a backflip. I don’t think I’m wasting a ton of time now, but I know I could use some of it more wisely.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?
To take better control of my free time, I plan to use a “Procrastination Prevention Planner.” I’ll map out my weekly priorities—like sleep, meals, schoolwork, and soccer—and set aside time specifically for family, social life, and discovering new hobbies. This way, I can make the most out of every week.

Laura’s Lists – Focused on School, Relationships, and Family

Relationships:
It’s important for me to maintain friendships, meet new people, and maybe start a relationship when the time feels right.

Would you say your priorities are in order?

2025-05-15 19:48:41 UTC

Honestly, I think my priorities are mostly in order, but I could definitely do better. I try to stay focused on school and keep up with assignments, but sometimes I let other things like my phone or just being tired get in the way. After watching the video, I realized I should spend more time on the things that actually matter to me instead of just what’s easiest or right in front of me.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock?

Yes, I feel like I’m always running out of time. There’s always something to do—schoolwork, chores, trying to see friends, or even just trying to relax a little. I don’t always plan my time well, so things end up feeling super rushed. The video made me think about how I’m spending my time and how I could be more in control of it.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?

Yeah, I procrastinate a lot. I don’t mean to, but I get distracted easily or just put things off because I don’t feel like doing them. Then I end up stressed trying to finish everything at the last minute. I think it’s because I don’t always know where to start or I just get overwhelmed. But I know it’s something I need to work on.

Lists from the video (school, relationships, family):

School:

Keep up with homework and not wait until the night before

Study for tests earlier instead of cramming

Ask teachers for help when I don’t understand something

Work on long-term projects a little at a time

Relationships:

Spend more real time with my friends, not just texting

Reach out to friends I haven’t talked to in a while

Be a better listener when people talk to me

Put my phone down when I’m hanging out with others

Family:

Help out more without being asked

Spend more time with my siblings

Eat meals together when we can

Talk to my parents about what’s going on in my life

What would you like to make more time for and why?

I’d like to make more time for things I enjoy, like drawing, acting, or just relaxing without feeling guilty. These things help me de-stress and feel like myself. I’d also like to have more time to spend with people I care about.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them?

I waste way too much time on my phone, mostly scrolling through TikTok or Instagram without even realizing how long it’s been. I also spend time just laying around when I could be doing something more useful or fun.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"?

I’m going to try tracking how I spend my time for a few days so I can actually see where it goes. Then I want to start planning out my week a little more, like setting aside time for school stuff but also time for myself. I’ll also try to cut down screen time, especially when I should be doing homework.

2025-05-20 03:10:01 UTC

Would you say your priorities are in order? For the most part i think my priorities are in check. I prioritize hockey, school and family.

-Do you feel like you are constantly racing against the clock? No i look at the bigger picture and relize that speeding and rushing does not solve every problem sometimes going slower can help your outlook on things. Even though i do believe time is money i dont look at it as how fast you go but how you use your time.

-Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not? Sometimes i do, Sometimes i will prioritze something less valuable than what i should be doing

3- Create the lists that Laura is asking her audience to create. However, instead of career, yours should focus on school, relationships, and family.

I think i should spend more time studying for AP exams and SAT testing, I want to be the best friend i can be, And for family i really want to be the best older brother i can be for my little brother and sister, I want to spend more time playing mini sticks hockey with my brother and more time talking to my sister.

What would you like to make more time for and why? I wish i could have more time at home i am away for half of the year for hockey and wish i could be home with all my family and friends.

If you truly had those 168 empty hours a week, where are you wasting them? I would not say i am wasting any hours, am I as productive as i could possibly be no, But i am happy and having a good time at home during the offseason and would not change anything.

What are some steps you plan on taking to "gain control of your free time"? None I am happy with where i am at.

2025-10-24 23:22:03 UTC

1. I would say my priorities are mostly in order, but sometimes it’s hard to balance everything. Since I’m homeschooled and play soccer for Inter Miami, my schedule can get really busy with training, recovery, and schoolwork. I always try to put school and soccer first because they’re both important for my future.

2. I do feel like I’m constantly racing against the clock. Between practices, workouts, travel, and assignments, the days go by really fast. Sometimes it feels like there’s not enough time to get everything done, but I’m learning to manage my time better and stay organized.

3. I’ll be honest—I do procrastinate sometimes. It usually happens when I’m tired after a long day of training and just want to relax. I know it’s not the best habit, but I’m trying to work on it by planning ahead and doing a little bit each day instead of waiting until the last minute.

4. For my lists, here’s what I’d like to focus on:

School: I want to make more time for studying and staying ahead on assignments.
Relationships: I’d like to spend more time with my friends since I don’t see them often because of soccer.
Family: I want to be more present with my family and spend more time with them when I’m home.

5. If I truly had 168 empty hours a week, I’d say I waste a lot of them on my phone or watching videos. To gain control of my free time, I plan to set limits on screen time, use a schedule to stay organized, and make sure I balance rest, school, and soccer better.

Would you say your priorities are in order?

egonzalez024 — 2025-10-29 00:57:53 UTC

I think they are. I am just focused on finishing school and making some money to be responsible and self reliant. I think I balance everything in my life fairly.

Do you feel like you are constantly racing around the clock?

Sometimes yes sometimes no. I leave things for last minute sometimes and I stress later but I’ve slowly gotten better and realized why save something for tomorrow if you can do it today. That saying has helped me grow a lot.

Do you procrastinate (be honest)? Why or why not?

Yes I do procrastinate sometimes. As I said I leave things for last minute sometimes and later regret it but I’ve gotten better at it.

Lauras Lists- Focused on school, relationships, and family.

School:

Keeping up with homework. What works for me is getting everything easy out of the way first and dedicating specific times to those hard assignments.

Relationships:

I like keeping a social life. It’s important to have people to talk to and escape with every once in a while. I like meeting new people.

Family:

I value family a lot. I help around the house a lot because my mom is always working. I try to spend every minute I can with my brother and mom weather its sitting and talking for hours or going out together.

If you truly had those 168 empty house a week, where would you waste them?

I would try to explore the world the most I cloud. Visit new parks, try new coffee spots, go on runs. I would also use them to hang out with my family outside of them always being at work.

What are some steps you plan on taking to gain control of your free time?

I don’t have too much free time but if I did, I would plan my days better. I love planning so I would make a plan for my week. Include time for myself, time for academics, etc.

Free Time

2025-11-06 01:59:30 UTC

I feel that my priorities are in order. As a senior, I know that I must have career goals to pursue after graduating. Everything I do is planned around my hockey schedule. I do feel at times I am racing against the clock because there is a lot I want to accomplish. Sometimes schoolwork is not prioritized, however, I do realize it must be done. My list that Laura asks for would be the following; School-Do not procrastinate and get all assignments done by the due date, Relationships-being in a virtual school since 8th grade has made it hard to have friendships. I am friendly with hockey players at the ice rink but miss the days of going to school and being around guys and girls. I look forward to going to college and being around many people and not just hockey guys. Family-I do a lot with my family and we have created many traditions together. I hope to keep in close contact with my family when I leave home. Since this may be my last year at home, I have found time to learn to fly and enjoy the same passion my father has. I get up extra early to fly with an instructor, making it a priority. I like what Laura said, "I don't have time = It is not a priority". My goals are to play high level hockey as long as I can, go to college, and become a pilot and be able to fly as a career.

2025-12-03 18:04:52 UTC

I think my priorities are okay, but they could be better. Sometimes I stay on top of things, but other times I fall behind. I do feel like I’m always running out of time because of school and other things going on. I do procrastinate, mostly when I don’t feel like doing the work or when I get distracted. I want to fix this so I don’t feel stressed all the time.

There are things in school, my relationships, and my family that I want to make more time for. In school, I want to spend more time on my work so I don’t rush. With relationships, I want to talk to my friends more and build better connections. With family, I want to be around them more and help out. I waste a lot of time on my phone and watching videos. To get more control of my time, I plan to do my homework first, make a small daily plan, and take breaks only after I finish tasks.

Lists

School, I want to make more time for

Homework
Studying
Staying organized

Relationships, I want to make more time for

Talking to friends
Hanging out
Building better friendships

Family – I want to make more time for:

Spending time together

vacosta001 — 2026-03-03 15:29:04 UTC

I would say my priorities are somewhat in order, but I often focus too much on school and forget to make time for family and friends. I usually feel like I’m racing against the clock, especially when assignments pile up or I have other responsibilities. I do procrastinate sometimes, mostly because I get distracted by my phone or feel overwhelmed, which only increases my stress. If I truly had 168 empty hours a week, I realize I’m wasting some of that time on social media, watching videos, or doing things that aren’t important. I want to make more time for school by studying consistently instead of cramming, for my relationships by spending quality time with friends and my boyfriend, and for my family by checking in with my mom and siblings more often. To gain control of my free time, I plan to make a weekly schedule, set small daily goals, limit phone use during study or family time, plan intentional activities with friends and family, and review my progress each week to see what works and what I can improve.

2026-03-03 22:42:12 UTC

I think my priorities are mostly in order, but it can get hard to balance everything. School, soccer, work, and the gym take up most of my time. I care a lot about improving in soccer and doing well in school, but sometimes I get tired and just want to scroll on my phone or relax instead of being productive. So even though my main priorities are straight, I could manage my time better.

I definitely feel like I’m constantly racing against the clock. Between practice, games, homework, shifts at work, and workouts, my days feel packed. Sometimes I feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day. But after thinking about the 168 hours idea, I realized that I probably do have small pockets of time that I waste without noticing.

If I’m being honest, I do procrastinate sometimes. Usually it’s with schoolwork. After a long day of practice or work, I’ll tell myself I’ll do homework later because I’m tired. Then later turns into late at night, and I end up stressing myself out more. It’s not that I don’t care — I just feel drained sometimes.

If I truly had 168 empty hours, I would want to make more time for school, relationships, and family. For school, I’d like to stay ahead on assignments so I’m not doing everything last minute. For relationships, I’d want more time to hang out with friends without feeling rushed. For family, I’d want to be more present instead of always being tired or busy. My family supports me a lot with soccer and everything else, so they deserve more of my time too.

I think I waste most of my time on my phone, especially at night. Even 30 minutes here and there adds up. Some steps I plan on taking to gain control of my free time are making a weekly schedule around practice, work, and gym sessions, doing homework right after school before I get too tired, and limiting my screen time. I also want to plan at least one night a week for family time and one time to just relax without feeling guilty.

Being a student athlete with a job isn’t easy, but this video made me realize that I can take more control over my schedule instead of just saying I’m too busy. It’s really about choosing what matters most and being more intentional with my time.

Fabio Ron

Are my priorities in order?
I would say my priorities are not always in order. Sometimes I focus too much on my phone, video games, or social media instead of schoolwork, spending time with family, or building friendships. I know what’s important, but it’s easy to get distracted by things that don’t really help me reach my goals.
Do i fell constantly on the clock?
Yes, I often feel like I am racing against the clock. Between school, homework, soccer practice, and trying to have fun with friends, it feels like there’s never enough time in the day. I usually end up doing things at the last minute or skipping some activities I should be doing.

Do i procrastinate?

Yes, I do procrastinate. I often put off homework or studying because scrolling social media or watching videos seems more fun. I know this wastes time, but it’s hard to stop because it’s easy to get distracted.

Lists of priorities and time planning:

School: I want to make more time for homework, studying, and practicing soccer skills related to school sports. These are important for my grades and long-term success.
Relationships: I want to make more time to hang out with friends in meaningful ways, like playing soccer together or talking about things that matter.
Family: I want to make more time for family dinners, helping around the house, and spending quality time with my parents and siblings.

Where I waste all my time:

I realize I waste a lot of time on scrolling social media, watching YouTube or TikTok, and playing games that don’t help me with school, relationships, or family.

Steps I plan on taking to gain control of my free time:

Limit social media and phone use to set times during the day.
Make a schedule for homework, soccer practice, and family time.
Combine activities when possible, like practicing soccer with friends instead of playing video games.
Set small goals each day for school, relationships, and family, so I use my time more effectively.

2026-03-06 00:07:58 UTC

After watching the video, I would say my priorities are in order. I try to focus on school, relationships, and family, and I feel like I’m keeping a good balance. I do feel like I am constantly racing against the clock, especially when I have a lot of assignments or activities planned. I don’t usually procrastinate because I like to stay on top of my responsibilities and get things done on time.

Even though I manage my priorities well, I notice I sometimes waste time on games and hobbies like pickleball and golfing. While these activities are fun and important for relaxation, they can take up more time than I intend if I’m not careful.

For my lists:

School: I want to make more time for studying and keeping up with assignments so I can stay organized and stress-free.

Relationships: I want to make more time to spend with friends and family, making sure I’m present and engaged rather than distracted.

Family: I want to spend quality time with my family, like having meals together or helping out around the house.

To gain control of my free time, I plan to set clear schedules for schoolwork and hobbies, limit time spent on games if necessary, and make sure I dedicate specific blocks of time to family and friends. These steps will help me enjoy my hobbies while still focusing on what matters most.

I also noticed that I did not have my priorities in the right sequence after viewing the video. This is why at times I do feel like I am always out of time, more so when I have school, stuff at home, and other obligations at the same time. I also procrastinate occasionally, and frankly it is simply because I am lazy, distracted or I simply believe that I have too much time. Then I later start stressing myself up. This video got me thinking how it is that every person has the same 168 hours in a week and it is truly a matter of how we utilize it. It taught me I am likely to have more time than I believe, but I am wasting it on the things that are not so important.

Given that I had a more effective way to control my free time, I would desire to spend more of my time at school and in relationships and family. In school I would prefer to have more time to read, keep up and complete a task right before the deadline. In the case of relationships, I would wish to have more time to converse properly with my friends and be present rather than spending all the time on my phone. On the part of family, I would like to spend more time with them and serve them more since I know that. I believe that I spend a lot of time scrolling on my phone, being on social media, and procrastinating when I should simply do it. My schedule is going to be much better, I will get my homework earlier, I will leave my phone somewhere when I am supposed to concentrate on something, and I will be smarter with my time are some of the steps I intend to make.

School: work harder, be more organized, get work done sooner.

Relationships: to spend more time with friends, to be present more, to talk more. Family: spend more time, help less, more control involved.

Phones, social media, procrastinating, distractions are where I spend time wasting time.

Actions I will take: schedule, begin earlier, avoid distractions, concentrate on important things.

2026-03-06 21:21:08 UTC

After I watched the video I thought about my priorities. I realized that they are not always right. This means that sometimes I feel like I do not have time especially when I have to do school work practice golf and do things at home all at the same time. I put things off sometimes. This happens when my phone distracts me or I do things or when I think I have a lot of time to finish my work. Then I feel stressed when I realize I should have started my work earlier. The video made me think that everyone has the amount of time in a week which is 168 hours. The difference is how we use that time. It helped me understand that I probably have time than I think but sometimes I use it for things that are not important. If I could control my time better I would like to spend more time on school, golf, my faith and my family and friends. For school I want to study more stay organized and finish my work before it is due. As a golfer I want to practice more and get better. I also want to have the time to be with my friends and family, and not just use that free time to spend it on my phone. Also, my catholic faith is very important, so i want to take a moment on my day to pray and think. Sometimes i waste my time on my phone scrolling on TikTok/ instagram and i want to do something about it so that I can have more control on that. To manage my time better i made a schedule where i do my work with my phone away from me. I also want to put more effort on things that really are importan to me life family/friends time, golf, god, and good grades.

School: i will be more organized and do my work when the week start and stop procrastinating my work.

Relationships: I will spend time with my friends and really be there. Family: I will spend time with them and help them more.

Faith: I will make time to pray and think. Where I waste time: my phone, media putting things off and getting distracted. Actions I will take: I will make a schedule start my work earlier put my phone away and focus on the things, in my life.

2026-03-07 04:30:54 UTC

I would say that my priorities are not really in order, which I wanted to fix, but I either felt I had little time to do so or felt ashamed for not doing them earlier. I know I can be busy at times, but I believe there's always room for me to do something now rather than saving it for later. I am a procrastinator; however, I'm taking small steps each day to help myself to become better when it comes to making sure my work gets done, cleaning around the house, and ensuring that I'm always communicating with friends and peers to help boost my morale and confidence.

Steps I Should Take

School: Finish 2 class work assignments every day. Write more notes, and when I have free time, quiz myself on those notes.

Relationships: Ensure that I'm communicating with those around me and those that I haven't spoken to in a while. It doesn't hurt to stop by and say "hi!" once in a while.

Family: Definitely call and contact my aunt and cousins more since they live farther than where I live.

Exercising: I should stretch first thing in the morning. And if I'm just on my phone, not doing anything but scrolling through social media, I should exercise more. I should take at least an hour every hour of the day by doing cardio exercises to make sure my body's in shape.

Creativity: Ensure that I continue with making more jewelry, knitting and crocheting more, and continue drawing. I always draw when I'm in the car; however, I should also make that a priority instead of going on the phone as much.

Healthcare: Ensure that I stay away from sugary products since they're not great for my health. Every day, I should replace juice and soda with tea and water instead, and replace sugary snacks with interesting veggie sticks or fruits.

Even though I think my priorities are somewhat in order, I am often distracted by social media and small tasks. I sometimes feel like I'm running out of time, especially during busy school weeks, and I do put off doing challenging or tedious tasks. If I had all 168 hours in a week, I would see how much time I waste scrolling through my phone or watching videos. To take control of my free time, I plan to make a weekly schedule, reduce distractions, and spend more time with friends, family, and my studies. I want to study more to improve my grades, spend more time with friends to maintain relationships, and create treasured memories with my family.

2026-03-10 18:30:37 UTC

My name is Daniel Betancourt, and I feel that my priorities are fairly well organized. As a senior, I know that I need to focus on my future career goals after graduating. My main goal is to become a professional soccer player, and I have been fortunate to receive multiple Division 1 offers from colleges. While my main focus is going pro, my plan B is to play Division 1 soccer in college if I don’t immediately go professional. Most of my daily schedule revolves around soccer practice, training, and competitions, which sometimes makes me feel like I am racing against the clock to fit everything in. Schoolwork can occasionally feel pushed aside, but I know it must be completed, so I make it a priority to stay on top of all assignments. My priorities include school, completing assignments on time to maintain eligibility and academic standing; relationships, balancing friendships outside of soccer while staying connected to family; family, spending time with them and maintaining traditions; and soccer, dedicating hours every day to training, skill development, and competing at a high level to achieve my goal of going professional. I truly believe in the saying, “I don’t have time = It is not a priority,” and everything I do is planned around reaching these goals while keeping school and personal relationships in balance.

rubyisabellatorres — 2026-03-11 13:04:33 UTC

I would say my priorities are not always in order, I am often distracted by social media or playing video games. I wanted to fix my priorities because i feel ashamed when I am not doing the requirements I need to do at the time I'm supposed to. I do feel like I am constantly racing against the clock, I tend to put off longer tasks for later thinking I have time but once I get to it, I am stressed and putting a lot of pressure on myself and end up not doing much of it. I do procrastinate, I tend to feel like not wanting to do the things I need to do until the last minute because I have other priorities which shouldn't be my top priorities. What i would like to make more time for is my personal health, to do more exercise each day. If i had those 168 empty hours a week, i would spend my time on social media, talking to my friends, playing games, and going outside. A plan i would make to "gain control of my free time" is to reduce distractions during school to make sure my grades and work are my main priorities, spend more time with my friends and family, and to have a schedule for myself. STEPS I SHOULD TAKE- School: Turn in 2-4 assignments everyday so i do not procrastinate and fall behind. Relationships: To communicate to those around me whether its my family, friends, and teachers. Family: To spend more time with them especially my family members that I barely see.

...

2026-03-13 02:21:03 UTC

I believe my priorities are somewhat in line, but social media and little chores frequently divert me. I do put off doing difficult or time-consuming things because I occasionally feel like I'm running out of time, especially during hectic school weeks. I would see how much time I waste watching videos or browsing through my phone if I had all 168 hours in a week. I intend to create a weekly routine, cut down on distractions, and spend more time with friends, family, and my academics in order to take charge of my leisure time. I want to spend more time with friends to sustain connections, study more to raise my grades, and make priceless memories with my family.

2026-03-25 01:41:07 UTC

I believe that my priorities are in order, but the situation is that sometimes I pay too much attention to those things that are not very important. I do feel that I am always in a race with the clock, particularly with school, sports and other commitments. Honestly, I also procrastinate a bit, most of the time due to my phone, as I am distracted by it or simply prefer to rest rather than immediately get down to business. But I am aware that time wasting only makes life more stressful in the future. After watching the video, I understood that I am not as short of time as I thought I am, I just have to better manage it. In the case of my lists, I wish to spend more time at school in order to stay ahead with my assignments and not to hurry. I would also like to dedicate more time to relationships, spending time with friends and being present rather than distracted. To family, I would like to have more quality moments with them since I do not necessarily make that a priority. In case I really had 168 hours per week, I know I spend much time on my cell phone, social networking and not doing anything constructive. The steps that I intend to take in order to control my free time will be to have a schedule, restricting the amount of time spent in front of the screen, and beginning to do my assignments early, rather than late. In so doing, I believe that I will be less stressed and feel more in control of my time.

2026-04-01 20:10:41 UTC

My priorities are kind of in order but not always because I sometimes focus more on my phone than school or family. I do feel like I'm racing against the clock a lot especially when I wait too long to get my work done and procrastinate at times because I get distracted or simply don’t feel like doing my work, but I know I'm just making things worse for myself later on. I would like to find more time for my school and my family and my friends because these are more important to my life and my future than anything else. If I had 168 hours a week to myself with nothing to do, I would probably use a lot of it on my phone and social media or just doing nothing at all even though i would like to spend it doing more productive things. I believe I waste a lot of my time when I'm stuck on my phone or when I procrastinate and don’t get my work done on time. Some of the things I would do to gain more control of my free time are making a simple schedule and doing my work a bit earlier and reducing the amount of time spent on my phone.

I learned that we often think we do not have enough time, but in reality we have way more time than we realize. She explains that there are 168 hours in a week, and the way we spend those hours depends on our priorities. I realized that my priorities are somewhat in order, but I still waste my time a lot on things that are not very important, like being on my phone or watching videos for hours . I do feel like I am racing against the clock, especially when my schoolwork builds up at the end of the week , and I also procrastinate most of the times because I put off tasks that feel difficult or boring in the moment. though , I now understand that this usually makes my schedule more stressful and harder to complete later.If I had all 168 hours planned wisely, I would make more time for school, family, and activities that help me grow as a person an even have free time . To gain control of my free time, I plan to be more intentional by scheduling important tasks first, limiting distractions like my phone, and using my time more purposefully instead of wasting it.

2026-04-23 21:37:52 UTC

I’d say my priorities are pretty decent right now, but there’s still a lot of room for improvement. A lot of the time, I catch myself going on my phone or watching videos instead of focusing on my homework first. There have definitely been moments where I feel like time isn’t on my side, especially when everything starts piling up because I put things off. I’ll be honest I do procrastinate sometimes, usually because I get distracted or just don’t feel motivated in the moment. But after watching the talk, I realized that I actually do have enough time I just need to use it more wisely.

If I really had control over all 168 hours in a week, I would spend more time on school, relationships, and family. For school, I want to stay on top of my work and finish assignments earlier so I’m less stressed and can improve my grades. Socially, I want to start talking to people more and building connections instead of keeping to myself. When it comes to family, I want to spend more quality time with them because I know that time really matters. I’ve realized I waste a lot of time on my phone doing things that aren’t important. To manage my time better, I’m going to try following a simple daily schedule, cut down on distractions, and focus on important tasks before anything else.
