Back to school organization.

Its going to be back to school time for most of us soon and its my favorite time of the year . The new books and stationery is enough to get me excited for school . However , a week into the school routine and all the excitement is replaced by boredom and complete chaos. This need not be the case this year, so here are a few tips that have helped me to stay more organized and to get things done!

Have a planner.

I cannot emphasize enough on this tip, whether it is a paper planner or an electronic one . Planners work wonders . It keeps you on track and helps you to plan ahead. 

(wont go into much detail here about planners as there is a blog post coming up about it soon)

Personalize your school supplies.

Drab school supplies are not going to motivate you to study so go ahead and make it fun!

Color code

I color code all my subjects and that helps me organize my assignments,notes , notebooks, and textbooks more easily and i just think its more fun. 

Notes

Writing down information helps you to memorize it faster so taking good notes can have a huge impact on your grades. Try to keep your notes short and neat so that it is easy to study from them .

If you use a notebook to write your notes i suggest having a different notebook for each subject or dividing a single notebook into different sections.

If you write your notes on loose paper make sure to file it away regularly or you might end up losing them.

Backpack

Pack your bag at night so that you have ample time to ensure you have all the books and notebooks you will be needing the next day.Do not carry more stuff than you need and declutter your bag atleast once a week. 

Most importantly stay positive school can be a lot of fun if you try. Hope these tips help you .
