One Step At A Time

So as a grad student I tend to have a lot on my plate. Especially with the added bonus of being a grad student pursuing a degree in College Student Affairs. For anyone who knows anything about College Student Affairs your life will constantly be busy with different projects, committees, your students, and your other co-workers. Now combine that with being a student, a daughter, a sister, and just having a life of your own.
While wearing all of these different hats many of them at the same time you tend to be juggling a lot of work all the time. I recently found this article that shares or highlights tips on ways to increase productivity in the work that you do by simply doing one thing at a time and just focusing your energy on that...crazy yet so simplistic.
I plan to continue my graduate, professional, and life career trying to implement these steps and make them a reality for myself and I just thought I would share them will all my potential readers.

Here is the amazing yet simple article: The Magic of Doing One Thing at a Time

P.S. This information is useful for all not just grad students or College Student Affairs professionals.

Much Love as Always,
Your Writer,

It's March Already?!

It is March 2012 already... I am more than 75% done with my first year as a graduate student. 
Time is literally flying by. Despite the speed at which time is going my life has been jam packed with my work as a grad student, having an internship, and field experience, as well as trying to maintain a social life. 

I wish I had a bit more to say but as I mention above time is flying and there are so many things I have to do. Next week is spring break and this Friday I have to close my building for the break so hopefully after I will have some more time to write.

Always moving and busy,

Your Writer,
