College is About
Time

Show notes

It might seem like you have more time to spare, but do you really? College is less structured than high school, and how you manage your time is fully up to you.

Morgan and Rob talk about the nice – and ugly – sides to managing your own schedule, the dangers of procrastination, and tools that you can use to keep your life – somewhat – together.

In this episode:

  • The illusion of free time
  • The Golden Gate Bridge analogy
  • Choosing between physical planners and digital calendars
  • Downsides of last-minute cram sessions
  • Why it's okay to feel overwhelmed as you figure it out
"You have to accept the fact that there are some things you have to do a little bit of every day."
Rob
