Pursuing a PhD 7: Organizing Everything on My Google Calendar

<p dir="ltr">Have you wondered why you don’t seem to have enough time in your day? </p> <p dir="ltr">I use my Google calendar to organize my time, everything that would naturally occur in my life gets a time block on my calendar, including commute time. Then when I look at my week, I can play with those time blocks. Am I spending enough time in certain areas or too much time? </p> <p dir="ltr">I’ve been able to see all this time in my calendar and I’ve gotten better at estimating my time for my classes and assignments. This allows me to figure out where I have extra time and where I don’t have enough time.</p> <p dir="ltr">Have you asked yourself, why don’t I get everything done?</p> <p dir="ltr">Or do I have the capacity to take on something new?</p> <p dir="ltr">Start looking at the pockets of time on your calendar that do not have anything associated with. Document how you use that time for a week or two and then you know if you have time you can actually give to something new and maximize your productivity.</p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>EPISODE RESOURCES:</strong></p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/organize365/">Follow my journey on Instagram</a> - Check out the PhD Highlight Button</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><a href= "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0/r">Google Calendar</a></p> </li> </ul> <p dir="ltr">Did you enjoy this episode?
