I do it and I dont recommend it for everyone but I just try and do everything at the same time and it usually works out.\n\nYou could try prioritising by seeing which task would benefit you the most and then rank them in order (e.g finish an assignment and get a good grade which is looking out for your future)

The only thing you can really do it manage your time.  I work, go to school and care for 5 kids.  If I can do it, I'm sure you can to.  It's tiring and hard, but it is possible.\n\nMake a "to do" list.  Write down things you have to do, then decide what to do at the moment, what to schedule for later, what to get someone else to do, and what to put off for a later time period. \nDaily/weekly planner\nWrite down appointments, classes, and meetings on a chronological log book or chart. \nIf you are more visual, sketch out your schedule\nFirst thing in the morning, check what's ahead for the day\nalways go to sleep knowing you're prepared for tomorrow.\n\n Here's an online siminar about time management, IF you get the opportunity, try to visit this site.

Really, it's a matter of organization and committment.  Are you organized, and do you prioritize?  Are you committed to getting the job done?  It sounds like you are.  Problem one solved.\n\nProblem two is that your tasks are taking longer than you expected.  Have you examined why they are taking longer?  Is it because you did not have all of the information or tools available?  Is it because the tasks were more complex than you originally thought?  Is it because you've allowed interruptions or other time-wasters to interfere?  Do you have a grasp of how long it typically takes you to accomplish certain tasks?\n\nIt does sound like it is a matter of understanding the time needed to complete tasks.  I would recommend the first step is some self-observation. Keep of a log of what you do and when you do it for a week.  Use that information to determine the length of time that is required to accomplish your tasks.  This will provide a better understanding so that the next time, you can commit without having to worry that you have not over-extended yourself.\n\nGood luck!

Establish priorities.\n\nHave a daily schedule as specific as you need it.  YOu might even need 5 minute chunks to start.\n\nHave a big master schedule for when assignments are due, appointments, tests, etc.\n\nDe-clutter your environment.   Often we are distracted and taken off task by "stuff" around us.  Try to keep things tidy. \n\nSet realistic short term goals for yourself.  Write them down.\n\nStop doing unnecessary stuff.  Sometimes we try to do too much.  But don't put off the hard stuff that really must be done - no time like the present - get it done now.\n\nPlan your day.\n\nAsk for help when it is reasonable, but don't expect too much of others.\n\nAs much as possible do your study in day light hours.  Research suggests taht one hour of study in day light is equal to about an hour and a half of study after dark.\n\nTake short breaks.  Generally marathon work sessions don't work for most people.  But make sure you end your break on time.  \n\nThis one might sound silly, but get enough rest.\n\nDo the most difficult things when you are most alert, not when you are tired.\n\nDo the most important stuff first.\n\nSchedule some exercise and relaxation time everyday.  It will energize you.\n\nI hope this helps.  Good luck!

Task Priority is the priority list on which, if a tasks need of computer resources (usually CPU) should be prioritized first.\n\nFor example there is 2 task one is assigned higher priority, on less priority, let the higher one be named task A. If both task is run simultaneusly, this would lead to a very high process usage or a very high memory usage, and the processor or RAM may not have enough resources to actually do that.\n\nThus the task needs to be prioritized. Task A which have higher priority will be run first, the if if Task A is finished, Task B will be run.\n\nTasks that is given a higher priority is usually a Time Critical Task, wherever lower priority task is given for non-time critical and computationaly intensive tasks

Start small. Just pick one little thing a day to do right away. In a week start to do two things right away a day. Next week increase to three things a day and after that increase your daily tasks by one extra  per day. You'll start to notice by doing things right away that you'll have more free time on your hands and much less worry.

evaluate, prioritize, organize\n\nSit down and write down your schedule for each day. Figure out if there is anything that you can take out of your schedule, combine with something else to give you more time, etc. Also, decide if spending time with your friends or resting is more important than anything you are currently doing.\n\nCan you shift your schedule a bit? These evening commitments - can they become every-other-week commitments?\n\nLife can be overwhelming at times but if you really look at what is a priority and what isn't, maybe you can find a way to fit in some fun.

If you try to focus on all the stuff you have to do all at once, you'll probably be overwhelmed and won't know where to begin. Instead, break the stuff you have to do into smaller tasks, prioritize and do the most important things first. Only concentrate on one task at a time. \n\nTry not to procrastinate... I know this is easier said than done, but for me, at least, most stress comes because I put things off to the last minute and then I get freaked out that I won't be able to finish on time. Sometimes if I'm procrastinating (like now) I'll play little mind games with myself and say something like, "you can (insert whatever mind-numbing, avoidance activity you are currently engaged in... asking/answering question on Yahoo Answers, for example) after you've finished your rough draft." But usually once I get started with the work I need to do, that's most of the battle and I won't go back to whatever b.s. I was doing to waste time before.\n\nI know this sounds like it should go without saying, but for a lot of people it doesn't...when it comes to studying for an exam, try to really focus on what you know is most likely to be on the test--what came up most in class, ideas or subjects you came across multiple times, topics on the review sheet (if any). Don't waste time trying to read every word in your text book, or catch up on reading you are behind on, because that won't help you. If you are really behind on the reading, just skim over it.\n\nAs for a long term solution, if you really think you have depression and an anxiety disorder, talk to a doctor. There might be a prescription that would really help you calm down and enable you to work more effectively. \n\nOk, now I need to go take my own advice and do all of the above. Good luck with everything.

Keep a calendar and MAKE SURE you write everything on it.  Clear your work up at the end of each day so you start the next day without a lot of leftovers from the day before.

List down all jobs you got to do. Name it "TO DO". This list should always be infront of you and be sure your pen is always standby so that you can tick all done jobs.\n\nUse memos and stick it to your table or wall.\n\nList down rules and regulation that you should follow without any cost. For example clean your room, make your bed as you get up. Or clean your working place...\n\nMake a time table which you should follow. Use the alarm in mobile phone which will remind you what work to do. For example fetch your children from school.\n\nAlways clean your working place, so that every paper or material are placed such that you will never have trouble in finding them.\n\nDo sport! It keeps your mind so cool that you will not need a memo or a TO-DO list.\n\nGood luck...

There will never be enough time to do everything that you want.  The best way is to prioritize.  After you determine what is the most important aspect of your life, then make sure to spend each day doing what you love.  For example, if family is most important, then make sure you spend time with your family each day.  You can even multitask...say you love baseball, then spend an hour playing catch with your kids.  This would be a great way to spend time with the family and play baseball everyday.  Mix it up, make it interesting.  Remember it's your life, and you decide what to do with your time.
