SECRET #1
Don’t try to remember to
get things done. Make it
IMPOSSIBLE to forget.

Your brain is a
thinking tool, not a
storage device.
David Allen

DON’T TRUST YOUR BRAIN TO
STORE INFORMATION LIKE…

• What homework or projects


have been assigned
• Deadlines
• Test or exam dates
• Family events
DON’T TRUST YOUR BRAIN TO
STORE INFORMATION LIKE…

• Project meeting dates/times


• Errands
• Household chores
• Miscellaneous tasks
• Ideas
The first step is to write
down everything that’s
important in an
“everything” list.
Your “everything” list
will function as your
homework list as well.
Use a notebook or an
app like Google Keep
for your “everything”
list.

Once a day when you get
back from school, review
your “everything” list and
“process” all the items on
the list.
Strike off the items once
they’ve been processed.
For example, depending on
what the item in your
“everything” list is, you
might do one of the
following…
If it’s a date you need to take
note of, mark it down in
your planner/calendar.
If it’s a task that will take 3
minutes or less to complete,
do it immediately.
If it’s a task that will take
more than 3 minutes to
complete, decide exactly
when you’ll complete it and
mark it down in your
planner/calendar if
necessary.

Before you stop work for
the day (or at a fixed time
each night), review your
“everything” list and
planner/calendar once
more.
Every Sunday, check your
planner/calendar and review
the upcoming events over
the next two to three
weeks.

Don’t focus on the

Focus on the PROCESS.

instead of outcome-based
goals.

GOALS • I only watch videos

At any given time, work
on implementing just
2 to 3 process-based
goals.
Review your process-based
goals every 1 to 2 weeks.
Remember that if you
take care of the
process, the outcome
will take care of itself!
SECRET
#3
Do everything it takes to
stay on top of your
schoolwork.
HERE ARE SOME
PRACTICAL
TIPS I
RECOMMEND…
Tip 1:
Complete your homework
at least 1 to 2 days before
it’s due.
Tip 2:
Skim through new topics
before your teacher
covers them in class.
Tip 3:
Review any new information
you learn later that same
day.
Tip 4:
Clarify your doubts as soon
as you can.
Tip 5:
Use online
resources.
Tip 6:
Attend every single
class.
Tip 7:
When it comes to projects,
always have a plan.
FOR EVERY

• Timelines
FOLLO W ING

If you like to keep things
digital, use Trello to manage
your projects.
Of course, if you’d prefer
to keep track of everything
in
a notebook, that works too.
SECRET
#4
Clarify your priorities
and
responsibilities.
MOST STUDENTS GO THROUGH
LIFE EITHER…

1. Doing what they feel like


doing OR
2. Doing what feels most urgent
Over the years, I’ve learned
this important lesson…
… you shouldn’t listen to
what people say is most
important to them. Just look
at how
spend their they
time and
know exactly whatyou’ll
is
most important to
them.

Devoting a little of
yourself to everything
means that you’re
committing a great
deal of yourself to
nothing.
In the coming few days, set
aside 15 minutes to think
about and write down your
priorities and
responsibilities.
• Schoolwork
• Family
POSSIBLE • Religion
PRIORITIES AND • Sport
RESPO N SIBILITIE
S
• Music
• Volunteering
• Other
activities
After writing down your
priorities and
responsibilities, think about
whether the way you spend
your time is in line with
what you’ve written down.
Next, set process-based goals
(refer to Secret #2 for how
to set those goals) to ensure
that you focus on your
priorities and responsibilities.
• I do my schoolwork
every weekday night
from 8pm to 9pm
POSSIBLE • I spend time with my
PRO CESS- family every
BASED GOALS Saturday night
• I practise the piano
every day for at least
15 minutes before
dinner
You’ll also need to
develop a variety of ways
of
saying no politely.
YOU CAN SAY NO LIKE
THIS…
• “Thank you for thinking of me, but
I’m sorry that I can’t make it.”
• “Thanks for the invitation, but
I’m sorry that I’ll have to pass.”
YOU CAN SAY NO LIKE
THIS…
• “I’m sorry, those dates don’t work
for me.”
• “I’m sorry, I’ve already made
other plans.”
Categorise your friends
and decide how much
time you’ll spend with
each category of friends.
CATEGORISE ALL YOUR FRIENDS
INTO THE FOLLOWING
GROUPS…
• Best friends (2 to 4)
• Close friends (3 to 5)
• Casual friends (5 to
10)
• Acquaintances (5 to
10)
Decide how often you’ll
hang
out or spend time with
each group of friends in
general.
This is what it
looked like for
me…
CATEGORISE ALL YOUR FRIENDS
INTO THE FOLLOWING
GROUPS…
• Best friends – once every few
days
• Close friends – once every 1
to 2 weeks
• Casual friends – once a month
• Acquaintances – once every 2
to 3 months
Once a week, I wrote
down when I spent time
with each of my friends
to ensure that I was
keeping to my
commitment.
Keep this principle in
mind…
… to be a successful student
who leads a balanced life,
you don’t just need to
do things right. You need to
do the right things.
