Becoming independent
Many young people strive to be independent. That means you are able to take care of yourself, and you don't
have to rely on anyone else. However, to live independently, you need a number of life skills in order not to depend on
your parents and older brothers or sisters. One of the most important skills is time management which can help you
build your confidence and self-esteem. With good time management skills, you can perform your daily tasks,
including your responsibilities at school and at home with pleasing results. Moreover, you will not feel stressed when
exam dates are approaching. These skills can also help you act more independently and responsibly, get better grades
at school and have more time for your family and friends.
Developing time-management skills is not as challenging as you may think. Firstly, make a plan for things you
need to do, including appointments and deadlines. Using a diary or apps on mobile devices will remind you of what
you need to accomplish and when you need to accomplish it. Secondly, prioritize your activities. You need to decide
which tasks are the most urgent and important and then, concentrate on these first. This way, you may not be at a loss
to deal with too much work at the same time. Thirdly, develop routines because routines, when established, take less
time for you to do your tasks.
Time management skills are not hard to develop; once you master them, you will find out that they are great
keys to success and you can become independent.
