Organization Tips For Continuing Students

By Leticia Jensen


Finishing a baccalaureate degree is not an assurance that you will be getting a job related to it. Sometimes we fall into a different path and we realize that we really are good at it. This is why others are taking continuing education for substance abuse counselors because they think that they really are destine to guide these poor souls.

You can choose to have a formal or informal one. Formal are those which are in self study, training and workshops. Formal ones are those in which you really have to finish a session such as two months for you to earn a certificate. Or getting into online classes for virtual learning. Taking a second course is also a formal one.

Well, working and studying as one can be very hard and mind bugging so you have to make sure that you can manage everything because if you are not sure, then you have to educate yourself about some ways on how to avoid being confused. This is because if you cannot manage yourself in this, all types of mess are possible to happen.

You need to have a routine so therefore work at the same moment. In this way you can really find some hours where you can have time to enjoy or chill out. Try to spend your two hours for studying and assignments if you are attending into formal school. Well if it is informal you still need time for you to read some studying materials.

As much as possible download your articles and print them out so that you can bring it anywhere. Unless you have a tablet or a phone that can show articles. As much as possible avoid reading it thru computer to avoid some temptations such as networking sites and porn. This is for you to keep yourself focused.

Have an official working space in your room. There you will be placing everything that is related to your work and separate it to the place of your study where you put all your school stuff. This is one of the common problems faced by continuing students. They tend to mix their work and school stuff. Having separate places is ideal.

You need to buy yourself a planner if you still do not believe that they are effective. If you think they are not effective at least buy something where you can take down notes all your present and upcoming activities for you to keep yourself guided and for you to have control of your time and pleasure. Both factors go together sometimes and the result is always waste.

Focus on one work only, one step at a time. If it is time for you to study, the study and never turn your head into something related to your job. If you need to work then never turn on the tablet unless it is break time or you are don with your shift.

As said, destiny sometimes is delayed and this is why most of the moment we will undergo this change of heart and take further education for substance abuse counselors.
