Time management is one of the most essential art that a person can develop and that might be a friend for life. Therefore, managing time can be complemented with setting a routine. Setting up a routine is like color coding and giving tags to a chunk  of the time from your whole 24 hours and completing the task accordingly. This is very essential in case of a deadline when we  tend to procrastinate more rather than completing the task early. 

This episode provides a little insight into making routines and how to customize according to a person's needs. 

If you want to talk, I do prefer email as a very secure way to communicate. Do drop a mail and we can have a conversation.                                 

Sleeping is probably the most important process that has a plenty of evolutionary significance. We all try to work hard throughout our day and if we do not sleep properly at the end, both our physical and mental strength tends to give up on us. For a student, it is one of the most important  processes that keeps the mind on track. If we do not sleep properly, we tend to be  cranky throughout the day and our social skills tends to deteriorate. Therefore, in order to have a proper and wonderful life having a state of temporary unconsciousness is very vital for everyone, irrespective of any profession. During our sleep, our mind gains the energy for the next set of work that we are going to perform.

If anyone wants to talk I would love to hear from you. Anyone can shoot me a mail at [email protected]

These are a few methods that I personally like to use. You can obviously play around with these and find the one that suits you the best. One thing that I would strongly recommend the most is using flashcards. I have had a lot of improvements with this little technique of flashcards. I would really love to hear from anyone who wants to talk. So shoot me a mail at [email protected]. 

Spaced repetition is second thing after active recall that makes learning more effective. Instead of re-reading your notes and blindly memorizing facts, if the content is studied through repetition in interval that makes a huge difference in retrieval capacity. When we start learning a topic, the the brain is charged with the information from what you are learning just after your study session has completed for that day. Over time, the brain starts losing that charge and the information starts diffusing away. Therefore to concentrate those information, we need to repeat what we had studied after a regular interval so that the decline of the information from memory never reaches zero and eventually flattens out.

The research paper that I talked about is linked below. Have a look if you want to.

Active recall is the way of life. It is the most effective method if you want to build a long term memory on something. The more you actively learn a topic, the more you tend to retain it and recall it during times of need. Recall and recognition are two very similar terms that are confused by students. When you recognize something, it doesn't necessarily mean that you can actively recall that information. There are a lot of evidences behind this.
