People approach the concept of time differently based on their personalities and backgrounds. Some people are always punctual, while others are almost always late. Some students enter all due dates for assignments on a calendar as soon as they receive the syllabus for each class. Other students take a more laid-back approach and prefer to go with the flow rather than follow a daily or weekly schedule. These students might deal well with the unexpected, but they might also leave everything to the last minute and be less successful than if they managed their time more effectively. Even if you prefer to go with the flow, improving your organizational skills can help you do better in college, work, and life. Think of it this way: If you were hiring someone for a job, wouldn’t you choose an organized person who gets things done on time?
